The Coffee House

[vintagesnaps]

New kind of room service? Sounds like an old skit with Aykroyd and Belushi.

Glad you enjoyed your Flex Friday Leo.

My best friend had taken off work and we went looking for a quilt shop - that was closed/empty. Nice thing is they moved to a location that will be closer and handier, but by the time we found the store it was almost closing time. So went to dinner at a Panera which we haven't been to in awhile, summer's been nothing but trips to my parents' house, etc.

Went to the Dr. the other day, poking around my sinuses and eye socket found where the infection is! ouch! Back on antibiotics so ought to kick it this time.

I ended up catching a burger at the hotel...

Hmmm... not sure I'd want to stay at a place where they throw the food...

They didn’t throw it, silly; they give you goalie’s gear and slap shot it. I stopped it so I got a 10% discount.

The cool dry days from the first of the week are only memories as the temperature and humidity climb back to typical summer in the south. At least we get another reprieve as we're planning on heading to the Smokey's for a few days next week. Because of all the health problems this year, will be the first trip out.

Just got an article in on my news feed about an annual event near my old home in MO. The Leopold Picnic, was started in 1892 by St John's Church and has continued every year since. Leopold is German Dutch settlement not much more then a crossroad in the middle of nowhere. I think the population is listed as 65, and is reported to have the smallest school district in the state. However on one special day each year the church grounds are flooded by a few thousand people who come from all over to enjoy the food, music and of course................the beer. There was just something about buying and drinking beer from your own little tin buckets, that somehow made it taste better. According to the article, they're estimating cooking close to 1500# of fried chicken, 1200# of beef for kettle beef, no mention of the chicken & Dumplings or the gallons of beer, but it's got to be a lot. Lots of fond memories of picnics past here.

Mmm. Chicken and Dumplings!
32.44 for the week. I have a new job.
Once a week really clean the tops of the ice freezers. A compressor died and I was told it was very dirty. More job security.
Dad is mowing behind the house.
I'm about to get more comfortable and make myself a Spam sammich.

Ah. Sunday morning and the dogs wouldn't shut up. 7:30 is about my usual Sunday time anyhow. Coffee is pretty good this morning. No huge plans for the day.
Take it as it comes.

Ahhh... okay, see that makes sense.

Hey, you may have come up with a new way to serve concessions at hockey games!

Depends on what kind of food they're throwing. Burgers. hotdogs, steaks, etc. wouldn't be too bad. Something like chili might get a tad messy.

In a funk. Haven’t picked up my camera in weeks - since the balloon fest. Not even the cutest puppy ever can motivate me to take more than a snapshot. Not handling the heat very well this summer so I’ve been hibernating a lot - reading and surfing. Haven’t been exercising other than walking the dogs. Have also had a run of bad luck around the house. Leaking sink $$, dryer had to be repaired $$, hot water tank had to be replaced $$$, lawn mower died $$$, car ac had to be fixed $$, now abs light keeps lighting up...

Vacation in the White Mtns with extended family is in a few weeks so need to make some hiking plans and get my act together.
