Rabbit Trails

This is the first thing I did. Put some *pop* in the fridge. If you haven't tried Shasta Crème Soda, you MUST. We got a new Kroger.  It's the 3rd Kroger I've shopped at in our area since we moved here. I don't like the new one.....it's the size of a small city, but they stopped carrying SHASTA. Guess they needed more room for home décor and yogurt.    Then, of course, I make coffee.  I like quotes, but they have to be profitable. Or funny. I don't like the *do as you please* type quotes.  But it's always OK to delight in small discoveries. Like a new bloom in the garden.    I boiled eggs. 18 minutes, lots of salt in the water. One always seems to have to get attention. Don't be that egg.    I wasn't going to put this picture up, but it WAS a part of my morning.  Rats in Blue's Room (or one rat) tried to chew through this container. It was a perfect container for...

I got up a little earlier than usual. It was a little chilly in the bedroom. I opened a window before bed last night. It sure felt nice. I know it won't last much longer. At this time of year, it can go either direction. Today was beautiful. I fed the dogs and cat. Made coffee. Put seed out for the birds. Got my feet soaked in the wet grass.    I checked fabric to work on making a blue and white rag rug. This is why I don't get other things done. I am fixing to do something serious, and find myself in the sewing room, cutting fabric.       I did a load of towels. I am testing out my new drying rack to see if I can get a whole load on it. I can. I turn the ceiling fan on in the wash room. It is cheaper than running the dryer. One of these days I won't be saving my dryer for a rainy day...... but right now, I can.    I am reading in Esther. Trying to get the details of the story, str...

  I made a breakfast recipe from Pinterest. The tater tots made kind of a hash brown crust. Then I whipped eggs, cheese, bacon together.... and baked it. If YOU try this at home, use a big size muffin pan, and be sure to spray it. You can change it up with different cheese, add onions, use sausage instead of bacon. Don't mess with the eggs. Use real ones.   I got my Amazon order!    I'm glad I got the aluminum one, instead of one that could break/crack/shatter because of boiling water.    I boiled the amount of water that would fit in my coffee cup. Poured the boiling water over the grounds in the filter. It just drip drip dripped right into the cup.    Perfect and hot. I think I'm going to like this new way to make coffee.    I also bought a rocking chair. It had hideous furry stuff on it. Looked like the feathers from a baby peacock. Even *I* couldn't like it. I re...
