It's a gloriously sunny day. Just hoping it stays tht way so we get a good show of the Lunar Eclipse, SuperMoon, Harvest Moon Blood Moon. I'm thinking if the sky is clear we should watch it from the hot tub ! Maybe even decant one of the cherry liqueurs to sip in our special hot tub goblets. Oh dear, looks llke some clouds are moving in. Here's hoping the wind will pick up and blow them all out !
My pumpkin square was a hit. Phew ! It is not oten I make something new for strangers. I usually try them out on the family first. I was beating up the cream cheese icing at 6 in the morning !
Hubby had to go to the doctor as he was in a lot of pain with his eye. there is no scratch, but it was sollen, red and painful. Thankfully the antibiotics have started working. YS ad I went grocery shopping early yesterday mornng and I picked up two more cans of pumpkin puree as they were on sale. There was also a beautiful butternut squash which I might save til Thanksgiving. and Hallelujah, there some veggies and greens actually on for a good price !
We picked all the corn, tomatoes,peppers and the last cucumber. We still have carrots and potatoes to dig.
This morning I have prepared a Shepherd's Pie- well It's a cottage pie but I grew up calling it Shepherd's Pie.We'll have salad and the corn. Tomorrow will be chicken breasts and soft tacos for Tuesday. Hubby doesn't lillke them so he can find himself a pork chop or something. Pork is on sale everywhere but the cheap bacon is nearly $6 a pound ! And we all know bacon makes everything taste better !
YGS's grandmother has had a couple of incidents of high blood pressure. Two or so weeks ago she went to the hospital because she thought she might be having a stroke. This past Friday she called an ambulance asz her husband wasn't home. Her blood pressure ws 220/? That is in stroke territory. ES and ED are teaching YGS how to call 911 , what to say and to keep on the line. I have cautioned ES that until her condition is under control she should not be alone with YGS. I am sure the stress of the past few years have contributed to problems with her health.
Today I'll try to finish putting away my summer clothes and tidying the closet.
