Baking with rhubarb

 I made the font bigger and it is quite large on my computer.  

Hope it isn't too big now.

This morning when I walked it was 55 degrees, cloudy, 

and a little breezy with rain on the way later in the morning. 

Had a few sprinkles on the windshield on the way home.

Started my walk going up the hill and around the cemetery

a few times.

Then went through town and back going up and down

some of the side streets.

Continued over to the ball park and walked that loop too.

Up and down some more side streets and lastly around the

other cemetery.

Lots of butter cups all over the place.

Such pretty little flowers.

Bee on a rhododendron blossom.

Quiet around town no one out and about.

Found a penny.

I spent the morning in the kitchen baking.

A friend from church gave me quite a lot of rhubarb.

First I made Rhubarb Bread.

Next up was Rhubarb Pudding.

Cut up more rhubarb and strawberries and was going to make

a cobbler but decided I'd had enough baking for one day.

I'll make the cobbler in the next day or two.

I had quite a mess in the kitchen and was glad when 

I had things put away and the dishes washed.

Look at the pile of dishes I washed.

We went to town after lunch to the library to get a book for me

and a DVD that Ken picked out.

Both things were on reserve for us.

Ken surprised me again and order some more diamond art for me.

More cards but these have words on them,

like thank you or happy birthday.

He got me book marks too, the kind you put on the corner of the page.

They should keep me busy for a while.

I finished ready Theo of Golden by Allen Levi.

An excellent book and one of my all time favorite books.

Tonight's supper is Bean and Spinach Soup which Ken made.

That's all for today.

Hope you had a wonderful day and

thanks for stopping by.

Deb - Yes, I know the people selling the house but not well.  When we lived in town they lived two houses down.  They sold that and moved to where they are now.  They have a daughter and 2 dogs.

This is their old house, quite a difference from their current house.

A Good Day

 Started my walk this morning walking up and down the main road 

and up and down a few of the side streets.

Then walked around both of the cemeteries.

Rebecca was walking around there too.

Continued through town again over to the ball park 

and walked around there too

The temperature was 39 degrees and sunny.

Dame's Rocket can now be seen all over.

Up and down a couple more side streets on my way back to the pond.

Spotted a For Sale sign in town.

This is the same house where the garage has been being built for the last year or so.

Was surprised to see the For Sale sign because they have done 

a lot of work both inside and outside.

They have probably over built for this town because I can't imagine

they will get their asking price of $650,000

It is beautiful inside and sits on 5 acres of land.

 If you want to see the particulars and pictures of the house click

Another load of laundry done today and out on the line to dry.

Then we left for food shopping at Walmart.

Hardly anyone was there and the nice thing was we

didn't see any of the shoppers with the huge blue carts shopping for others.

After lunch I went outside to do a few things.

I bought more bean seeds and planted them outside.

The beans that I started inside and planted outside much too early

all died so thought I'd start over.

I should have known better than to put them outside before the end of May.

Also scattered some pansy seeds in a couple of big pots outside.

After that I stayed out putting more branches on the brush fence.

Supper tonight is Roasted Vegetables with Italian Sausage

which is in the oven now.

Well, that's all I have for today.

Hope you had a wonderful day and 

Thanks for coming by.

HappyK😊

Ginny - The Red Baron pizza we had yesterday was 4 cheese.

Ann - No, didn't get any cookies at Subway but I was tempted!!

GrannyM -  I changed themes on my blog and maybe the font got a little smaller.  It looked the same to me but I did make it bigger.

Is it better now? Did you know that you can make the writing on your computer larger if you hold the command key down and then hit the plus key? At least it works that way on an Apple.

Any others find the FONT too small?
