Prayers offered for your Aunt, Philkar.
The neighbor lady hasn't called yet, so I don't know if we're going to the pool or not today. I need to make an Aldi run sometime soon, but if I had to choose between going to the the pool with the neighbor lady and going to Aldi on a Friday, the pool wins I went to the main pantry closet for a bag of the Morena cane sugar from Aldi that I like to use, and realized that I need to make my pantry re-fill list and get stocked back up sooner rather than later. Hate to go to Aldi on a Friday or Saturday but it's going to be in the high 80's to mid 90's for the next 10 days after today, so I don't know if I want to wait. Sitting on a hot metal bleacher to watch a football game when the temp is in the mid 90's... Grandma must love that boy an awful lot Daughter and I worked it out that I will stay at home with the younger grandson when the middle one has away games, but we will all go when it's a home game.
The ad that starts this coming Wednesday's for the store in the pool town has whole beef eye of round on sale for $3.99 lb, so I may pick up enough to run at least two canner loads of pint jars of cubed beef. It's nice to have on hand for beef and noodles, beef hot shots, beefy vegetable soup, beef stew, etc... (I was starting to feel like Bubba in Forrest Gump there for a minute )
I went to the main current use pantry closet for a bag of the Morena cane sugar that I like to use, and realized that I need to make my pantry re-fill list and get stocked back up sooner rather than later. Hate to go to Aldi on a Friday or Saturday though, so if I don't have a grandson or two on Sunday afternoon, I might slip over then. That'll give me time to rotate things I have stocked in the longer term pantry into the current use pantry.
The hummingbirds have been slowing down a bit- it's barely September and that's pretty early for here, so I hope it doesn't mean an early winter. We will likely get a flush of them passing through to the south later in the month. We still have them in November some years.
Well, dang - looks like I'm headed to the pool.
You folks all stay safe out there...
