Three weddings, no funerals

And they just keep coming.  We have Alyssa, Alex, and now Brooks and Carly all engaged and it is a happy Lechler family time. Brooks has had the ring since July and just made the great decision to marry Carly.  She is a dear girl.

It still looks good outside even though it is a bit cool.  The plants are loving it and the yard is still being mowed once a week.  I did dial that back, however just now.

I love my Hamilton Beach food processor.  I used it this morning to grind up a rotisserie chicken's (pieces) to small pebbles.  I then used the chicken stock that I had made a couple of days ago to do Amish noodles and at the last minute put in the chicken pebbles.  It was soooo tasty. That appliance is the easiest thing to use in my entire kitchen.

I am well stocked for autumn and winter cooking. I've been to Sam's, Trader Joe's and of course Kroger. Lordy, don't go to Kroger on Sunday afternoon.  Matt and I went to Appliance Mart to get him a washer and dryer for his new house that he closed on a couple of days ago.  We stopped in Kroger for flowers and there were NO CARTS.  So you can imagine the crowd...that's what I did, just imagined it and got out of there in a hurry.

Then he had called ahead for Massey's pizza for us to take home.  They too were swamped--what is it about Sunday afternoons?

It is quiet here and I just loaded the crock pot with boneless bbq pork short ribs.  I am serving them over curly thin buttered noodles for dinner tonight.

Have a lovely week.
