This and that

 I had forgotten the blog The English Kitchen and revisited it today. She posts every day and she must have gotten a new camera device because the pictures are so much better than before. She always has good common recipes that can be made by anyone who can read a recipe.  She loves potatoes and has glorious pictures and recipes featuring the potato, but do not miss her other recipes. She has a really large cookbook out with a bad index but tons of wonderful recipes.  She cooks for two but writes to do this or do that if you are serving more people.

We are planting flowers like crazy people. We are also happy with the progress of Nate's new fruit orchard.  The deer have found a new path to the creek and only appear once in a while in the back yard and we shoo them away.

The pool looks glacial and has never looked better.  Once we get things arranged I will post some pictures. I hope we can have some family here for a swim party day when it warms up and all the renovations are complete outside.  We have ordered a whole house generator to be installed.  Since we are planning to stay here in our old age, we are installing helpful items that will aid us as we age.  I hate it when the electricity goes out, so I am glad to have this device in place soon. Thank you, Mike and Nate.

Bless you, the readers here in this blog.

Where the Crawdads Sing is a movie coming out June 2022. I can't wait.  It is one of my favorite books. Don't miss this good read.



 

To the doctor

We are off to the doctor to have Andy checked out since he has had two falls.  We thought to wait until his appointment on the 20th, but aft...
