I went to my favorite resale shop while hubby took our car to get serviced. They were running behind so I really got to shop all I wanted. I found some good clothing items for me. The store had just put out their ladies fall items on Saturday so there were lots of good stuff. I got the little granddaughter a couple of cute outfits that I just couldn't pass up.
Hubby and I both went to the barn at different times. We are sure someone has stolen some square bales of hay. I have to figure out a place to put the game cameras to watch the road. Our drive is 1/2 a mile long with one neighbor before our house. The barns are a little over 1/4 of a mile away. We are only missing a few bales, but that is our income. And we have other stuff in the barns too.
Last night we went to revival at an old church west of us. Just a one room building, no electricity, or plumbing. We had service by kerosene light and those battery candles. It was really beautiful and moving. The little church was full. All the money collected goes to repairs on the church.
We got more wood split and stacked with our son and grandson's help. We keep 3 years worth in the shed but had gotten behind on this bunch. We do everything slower than we used to.
I remember my dad or grandmother telling me about Grandma making patties out of left over peas. She fixed them for breakfast when they had peas left from supper. She raised 6 kids during the Great Depression. She and Grandpa made sure their kids didn't go hungry. We were having BLTs for breakfast so I made pea patties to go with them. I mashed my peas, added onions, cornmeal, a little flour, and an egg. Then fried them in a little bacon grease. They were really good. We will be cooking them again.
