Cooking up a Day

Day 49

I am thankful for ordinary.   Sis and I had a great visit.  We didn't find shoes at my favorite store's rack sale.  That's unusual but I'm guessing they didn't have such a good year.  Our favorite spot for buying oranges was closed!  I was surprised and Sis was disappointed.  The wonderful ordinary thing is that we had all that time riding around together to chat, catch up, share how things are going.   We had a great dinner out sharing a steak and sides. 

We also took Mom's somewhat beat up dresser and head board over to Goodwill.  I'm sure someone will give them a good home.  With a bit of refurbishment they could look nice.   We started a nice pot of soup with sweet Italian sausage, veggies, kidney beans, and pasta.   I had chicken in the crock pot by time she got here.  We did our errands and after dinner started the soup with home made stock from the crock pot.

We ended our day watching Julie and Julia.  It was as good as I had hoped it would be.  I kept falling asleep so we'll watch more tomorrow.
