All your food sounds delicious. I need to come up with more options for meals.
I made your Apple Oatmeal cookies last week and they were a hit. Thank you for sharing the recipe with me Lori.
Bobbie it was so nice meeting you too. I think it is so nice to meet up and have a nice time chatting and laughing.
The counter tops are beautiful. Great choice. Your floor choice is nice too. Look forward to seeing your before and after pictures.
What a lovely surprise for your hubby and Mom. So nice you were able to get your family together for the celebrations. Your granddaughter is cute and don’t they grow so quickly.
I have had a bit of a problem with that after this last trip. I was going to chalk it up to getting older.....not sure if that’s it or not. I had a wonderful vacation.
That is the cutest cupcake holder.
Good to see you post again and so happy to hear your family faired well during the pandemic.
They will be over the moon with their AP Christmas gifts.
So nice to hear they were able to get married. I know the pandemic really made a mess things for a lot of couples wedding plans. Sending wishes of joy and happiness to the newlyweds.
Buckeev hope you and your son have a great trip to Universal for HHN.
I’am sitting in my favorite spot looking out the window having my coffee this morning. Miss Muffett comes to mind, but I don’t think even a spider could scare me off my perch this morning.....LOL
Went to grandsons football game Friday. It was Senior parents night for the football team. So before the game started the Senior football players and their parents were introduced to the stadium. It was a nice little ceremony.
Thy won their football game 35 to 8.
Sadly I found out that my DIL mom passed away just before they arrived. It had been expected, but not this quick. I felt so sorry for my DIL. Loosing your mom is hard no matter how old you are.
We had a nice visit with grandson from Kentucky. He brought us some fresh eggs as they have chickens. He showed me pictures of the chicken house he built for them.

One of the eggs was huge compared to the others. I told him that chicken must have had a hard time laying that egg. He said it would be a double yolk egg and it was. He has a chicken that lays light green eggs. I told him we have a lady (Monyk) on the Disboards that shares stories about her chickens.
Granddaughter in law stamped the eggs with a chicken stamp.......LOL

Went to great-nephews birthday party week ago Saturday. He had such a fun time. It was such a nice celebration with family.
Grandson came over Sunday for a visit. I made Manhattan roast in the crockpot, mash potatoes and gravy, Italian green beans, caprese salad and a pineapple upside down cake. I made a lot so I could send home a meal for son and DIL to have at home.
Granddaughter also came by and had supper with us. Her hubby was busy trying out for a semi-professional soccer team. He coaches high school soccer and plays on a local soccer league team and works a regular job. He’s is busy.
I have been busy doing things in the yard. The deer had eaten all the leaves off the Hosta’s and the oak leaf hydrangeas have died back so I have been trimming them down. I like to putter around in the yard.
I watched my little great-nephew yesterday morning. He is the sweetest little fellow.
We had a quick storm pass over yesterday evening. It brought with it some cooler temps. It was 66 when I woke up this morning. Looks like it will warm up again next two days then we drop down in the upper 60’s. It had been warm here so weather correction was do.
I put some ground sirloin out to thaw for spaghetti sauce. Don’t make pasta as much anymore, but will make some this evening.
Will get some more of trip report done today then I have a few things to do in the house.
Have a Great Tuesday everyone.
