Walking, baking, reading

  Rained during the night.

Just cloudy when I first got to town but was supposed to rain

so wore my rain clothes.

It was 55 degrees and thankfully the wind had stopped.

Walked around both of the cemeteries and then it started raining.

No thunder storms, only rain.

I watched the fog roll in.

Continued walking around town and then around the ball park loop.

Something going on there.

Maybe a building of some kind.

Will have to see.

The stream behind the ball park is very muddy from all the rain we've had.

Also because of the rain there were worms all over the place,

Hundreds of them.

The white house where Carmen lived no longer has the

For Sale sign in the yard.

Sold or maybe just taken off the market for a while.

Will have to see about that too.

Didn't see anyone else out walking when I was.

☁️    🌧    🌫    🙂

Baked a chocolate cake with vanilla icing this morning.

Baked it in two 8 inch square pans so I could put one of them in the freezer.

Finished reading The Frozen River by Ariel Lawhon and thought

it was very good.

I found the authors notes at the end of the book very good as well.

I'm going to recommend this book for my book club!!

This is the first book I've read by her and plan to read more.

We went out after lunch to do a couple of errands.

Ellen - you are right it is Friday and we usually have pizza but having it

tomorrow instead.

We had a tomato that needed eating before it goes bad so had BLT's.

No ice cream later, having a piece of the cake I baked.

Hope your Friday was a super good one.

Thanks for stopping by.

Diana - You asked how we turn the puzzles over to write on them - VERY CAREFULLY. 🧩🙂

The Last Puzzle

 Woke up to a thunderstorm this morning so didn't go walking.

Then the thunder and lightning stopped and it was just raining.

Got my rain gear on and drove to town.

I no sooner got out of the Jeep when the whole sky lit up

and there was a crash of thunder.

So back home I went.

 Torrential rain on the way back home and was like

the Jeep had good hose down and now it's pretty clean.

I put the last piece in the puzzle this morning.

Five Cats,

A Troll,

and even a mouse on a shelf.

If the puzzle holds together well, we turn it over and write on the back.

This is the third time we've done this puzzle.

This was the last puzzle we will do this season.

We'll start puzzling again in the Fall with the first snowfall.

  

All my yarn was in a bit of a mess so this afternoon got all of that

straightened out again.

That's going to be it for today.

Hope your Thursday is a happy one.

🙂HappyK❤️

Ginny - Besides chicken, the burritos had lettuce, spinach, cheese, and tomato in it with some zesty Italian dressing sprinkled in it.
