Plans for the Weekend?

 Howdy all.  Hope you are safe and well.  If you haven't yet this week, please check in.  I miss hearing from all you regulars and need to know you are ok.  I am worried considering all the weather events this past week or so.
It is a gray morning, and damp.  We got a big rain over night, not needed, but we got it anyway! Just a little water out back this morning.
I am glad I got a ton of the yard work done the past couple days.  It was harder work than normal, because everything had just grown so much in the past week!  It was tough mowing, and then it took raking and blowing as well - do to the clumping.  The weed whacker just wears me out as well.
Fortunate, I can still do it all.  
Please note:  I don't mean to sound gripey - so many have such huge worries right now, and this for me is nothing in comparrsion.

So what kind of plans do you all have for the weekend?  Going to be on the go?  Farm markets?  Canning?  Yard work?  Playing?
Whatever you do, I hope it is the best.
I may end up mowing again by Sunday, just to keep a handle on things.  This rain has just been something for making the grass and weeds grow.  I don't want to be in achy mode I am now, again in a few days!  Dang things I didn't even realize I had, hurts!!!!!!  LOL

I think I will make a version of this as well.
It just sounds so good to me.  I love all kinds of salads, but especially those that last for a few days.  I will be making with cans, not cups.  Super healthy sounding.

Maybe some porch sitting and reading this weekend as well.  A nice relaxing time sounds good.
Let us know what you have planned.

Please know I wish you all the best, and I truly hope none were involved in the extreme flooding or the fires.  I worry about you all.

Take care and have a fantastic day and weekend.

  1. We are back in the sweltering 100F days possibly breaking a record today....it was 93F when I went to bed last night 😢and still 73 this morning. I don't even feel like going for my daily walks!!!

  2. It's supposed to rain with perhaps some severe thunderstorms here from today through the weekend. Blessedly my creative energy is coming back since the loss of my husband in March, so I'll be spending some time in my craft room. Laundry usually gets done on the weekends as it's not peak hours. Since starting to do laundry on the weekends or after 7 pm during the week and not using the dryer my electric bill has gone down considerably. Probably will do some batch cooking as well to have extra meals in the freezer. I pray that everyone is safe. Blessings, Cookie

  3. I love making bean salads as they last for days with the vinegar included and we can eat all it all week long just about. I'm going to a senior event today to look around and after that nothing special. Just trying to stay cool in this awful heat wave.
