Managed to get to the grocery store BUT it was like a zoo at the one we went to. Made me a bit crazy with so many people in too narrow aisles. Think we won't return there for basic things but use a closer shop instead. Hubby is off to Beirut to talk to the next generation of family members chomping at the bit about inheritance - situation nobody really has control over but they do like to talk. My son is coming in October and my daughter in November...need to really clean the house before then if we find time to do it.
BEVERLY: How did the pressure cooker do? Mine has a gasket that blew and I don't know where to buy a new one. Used to love using it to cook dry beans. How was the movie?
PAM: You must have a LOT of beans to be able to give them to neighbors, freeze, eat and take to the food bank!
LYNN: I have never heard of the books or the movie you and Beverly are going to see. It was humid here last night...it is usually humid. I actually find that when the hot dry winds arrive I like them less than the humid hot days. Well, I don't like hot days much at all anyway
PAM: Hooray for a maintain!

Good morning. I have a lot more beans than I can use. There are two varieties and each is a 10 foot row. I'll keep/freeze what I think I can use, and by the time I give enough for a couple of meals or so to my neighbors, there might not be a lot for the food bank, but I'm sure they can use what I do have for them. I have lots of lettuce too, but a lot of it is going to seed. It would have been at its best while I was gone. So I'm going to go cut what is going to seed and see how much there is left to eat and give away. It has stayed flavorful all this time and has not turned bitter as some lettuce does.
I have things to water today, and then I'll take beans to my neighbors this afternoon. From the one neighbor I'll get some corn if it is ready.
Have a nice day, Beaches.

Good morning ladies,
Well, I am still here, the pressure cooker didn't blow me up!!! I made a pot roast for dinner last night, it only took 40 min to cook!! Came out really good. I can see why people are so crazy over these things. Mine is not an instapot, but something similar. It can can up to 4 pints at a time. I am going to try to can some of the green beans that I have left over from what my SIL brought me from the Amish farm.
Today, I am riding to the shopping mall with DD. She is supposed to go back to work tomorrow. She is still walking with a cane, I wish she would take off till next week, but she is determined to go back tomorrow. She does very important work (she works in adoptions), but her health has to come first. Anyway, I am going to help her get in a few things before she goes back to work. She is also looking for a little table to set a tv on in her bedroom.
The movie we saw yesterday "Crazy Rich Asians" was pretty good. A silly romantic comedy.
Hope everyone has a great day. Waving to everyone.

Good afternoon!
I had a dr. appointment today. Terrible traffic getting there and then had to wait until the nurse showed up to take my blood. Oh well!
Tonight I may go see the movie. I was going to go for a pedicure, but I will wait until it is closer to my reunion in three weeks. I'll choose later...
Have a great day!

Sounds like everyone is having a good day. Cool and sunny today. I started a new book last night. Itβs the new James Patterson book written with Bill Clinton. Iβm reading this afternoon. Hope everyone has reasons to smile.
