Boring Weekend Recap
source Monday, we meet again. You come on like lightning you saucy wench. I hope you all had a great weekend and managed to keep cool. We got up to 96 at different times so that's...fun. I have to start with these two cards I got in the mail Thursday night. The big paper one is from the friends we gifted our old grill to. The Mr and I cracked up at the hot dog 'thanks' on what is an exact image of the grill along with a lovely note from the Mrs of the couple thanking us profusely as they didn't have money to replace their grill that was falling apart. The other is from my friend I've known since 1988 and he doesn't send out cards much so this was a surprise. It was him telling us how lucky he is to have us a friends and how much we mean to him and he thought we should know. It made me cry for sure (and then of course check in to make sure he was okay.

ReplyDeleteI sometimes see an ad for a "pick your own" place, but I haven't ever been able to figure out exactly were it is. Maybe this is the year. Mom has an apple tree in her yard so if I'm up there at the right time I will bring a bunch home. I love apple pie, but I love it even more if someone else makes it. My favorite thing to do with apples is to make applesauce. It's easy, a few spices and my crockpot, it make the house smell fantastic, it freezes well, and it tastes amazing.
