I wanted to have toast this morning, but the bread was moldy. Ah well, another excuse to have waffles. 😛 I’m working on a music arrangement. ---

Happy Saturday! Looks like the sun is coming out. Who knew **Flytrap** and I have something in common? He lives in the Armpit of the US and I grew up in the Armpit of AA County. Yes **Spidey** but until you grow 6 more hairy legs and multiple eyes I’m not scared. **Doggio** you are a brave brave man. ---

**Mrs. Sario** decided she wanted some doughnuts for breakfast so I went and got some. They were excellent, and we have leftovers for later.🙂 ---

Howdy Y’all! Mowage of the back forty over to the church house and the ingestin’ of a \ Quickie! \ N.O.L. have been accomplished. Da bear is tahrd. Plus it’s ninety Amurrkin out with a heat index of 96. Lots o’ limbs down in the church house yahd, so part of this mornin’ was pickin’ up pee-kahn limbs. Pee-kahn trees have a tendency to drop limbs and we had big tstorms on Wednesday and last night. Anywho 'tis all done. I think I shall forgo cee-mint pond time and have a nappy poo instead. Then, final preparations for dindin for the birthday must commence. Laterz! ---

The first four (and smallest) panels are quilted. I’m taking a break before moving on. I think I’ll mark the remaining 8, then sew them all at once. It’s not difficult, but it is tedious… ---

> [@EmilyG](#): > > My family has a fancy, state-of-the-art doughnut maker. It’s just about the only fancy kitchen appliance thingy we own, though. I’ve seen them advertised. Mom’s recipe, which I’ve made, involves yeast, flour, a cast iron Dutch oven and enough oil to deep fry them, among other things .Some she glazed, but usually, she just shook them up in a paper bag with sugar and sometimes cinnamon. They’re just one of the many reasons that my family carries extra weight. 🙂 **swampy** , I think I saw your Tennessee cousin at Kroger today; he was a gentleman about your age with an overflowing buggy full of tp. 😛 Off to start supper prep. I’m tweaking the eggplant lasagne that I tried a few weeks ago. ---

Supper was the last of the chickie salad and a bowl of cantaloupe. Quick, easy, and no cooking required. Works for me! 😃 ---
