RAMBLINGS…..& I’m pooped!

Have you seen this new baking pan? Why didn’t we think of this? Everyone will appreciate this pan, except maybe for Jessica. She doesn’t like the crispy chewy brownie, that you only get at the edge of a pan…she prefers the middle. Imagine that! For the rest of us, we will be using this pan in the near future, to make all our bar cookies!
Today……..I’ve picked 10 acres of peas, & plucked 15 acres of fresh raspberries…..podded, blanched, froze, cleaned, froze & bagged! I’ve mowed the lawn, well at least 3/4 of it. The belt on my mower decided to break, just as I was heading to the backyard. Yes honey……I need a new lawn mower! Roberta, in case you are reading this blog, I still have the same Honda riding lawn mower that we owned when we lived next door to you! Don’t you think it’s about time!
My good husband is out of town for a couple days, & so I also tried……the key word: tried, to make the weed-wacker start. NOT on your life! Another 1 1/2 hours wasted trying.
