No snow in our neighborhood, but lots of rain. We’ve been out for breakfast, then we went to Lowe’s and bought the new faucet for our new sink and counter. I should probably get started with my chores… yep, should get right on that… yep, I should… 😃 ---

No snow here and none for the foreseeable future. I’m okay with that. As far as I know, we don’t have any plans for today, so it will be a day of relaxing. Supper is taken care of because I made a ton of prime rib soup yesterday. **Tao,** I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you. **April,** I’m glad the headache has subsided. ---

Party at **Midget’s** place! She found a twenty so she can afford the BIG bag of Cheetohs.[sup]TM[/sup] 😃 We went to Pearly’s (great place for down home sustenance) for brekkie then over to OYKW’s place to check on it and round up dirty clothes. I told him he might as well just do laundry at da cave b ein’ as it’s dreary and ick out and we have no plans for anything else. I took two quarts of chili out of da freezer which I will dump in the slow cooker in a bit to warm up. I also took some hotdawgs out. I got a bag of coleslaw at the sto’ when we stopped to buy some collards for New Year’s Day dindin. So, whilst laundry has been goin’ on I have made up the slaw (hey I had to put drssin’ on it and toss it so it counts!) and cleaned the collard greens. Now it’s chill time. Well, after I dump the chili in the slow cooker. Stay safe everybody in the path of any kind of stormy/bad weather. ---

> [@swampbear](#): > > Party at **Midget’s** place! She found a twenty so she can afford the BIG bag of Cheetohs.[sup]TM[/sup] 😃 I think I’d rather buy cookie ingredients and make homemade cookies. Maybe I’ll do that tomorrow or the next day. ---

Speaking of homemade cookies, I just took the last of the oatmeal-butterscotch chip cookies out to cool. They are very yum. I don’t expect them to last the weekend, being married as I am to a major fan of oatmeal cookies, especially when they have butterscotch chips in them. I tidied the kitchen, altho it’s a bit messy now after the baking. Couldn’t bring myself to drag the laundry downstairs - maybe tomorrow? I’m thinking it might be a good time to knit. Puppy is napping, so she won’t try to “help” by holding the afghan firmly against my lap… :rolleyes: It’s still grey and dreary, tho the rain has stopped for the moment. Mail has come but I can’t bring myself to walk down the driveway just yet. Knitting it is! 😃 ---

Hrm, food. I’ll make my gingery-leeky-shrimpy fettucinne for the in-laws. Will cut back on the crushed red pepper though; they may be Mexican, but that kind of heat doesn’t really thrill them. 😛 Puppies are all sleeping in a pile outside our room; they are still following me no matter where I go. I am da Pied Piper of Puppies, apparantly. 🙂 Later today we shall go back to the casino/hotel at which I left my new coat last week. \>.\< Note to self: do not EVER hang anything up in a hotel closet, 'cause you know darn well you’re going to forget it later. :smack::smack:😛 ---

Prime rlb soup goes great with bit sammiches. 😃 OYKW is finished with his laundry. Chili is simmerin’. Dawgs to be grilled in a bit. It’s a gray, dreary, action packed day here at da cave.
