Another busy week which included AA playing the nine holes at TPC Sawgrass. That was a late night for us! The rest of the week involved AA's dentist appointment (braces), Heck Electric finishing out generator transfer switch, the repair of an sprinkler/irrigation line. We are back to doing our own grocery shopping. We did very well planning meals when we used the delivery service from March - end of July. We are not so good now!! Just being creative and rotating our favorite meals around takes an effort! From bruschetta, spaghetti and meatballs, blackened salmon and homemade pizza almost every week, we need more ideas! I make lemon shrimp or chicken piccata once a month, really liked the sheet-pan dinner with shrimp and broccoli. Ford made chili in the slow cooker this weekend as something different even though it is still HOT summer here.
Friday, Ford and I sat outside at Talons, drank wine and beer with the nice view, actually about 80 degrees due to the late storm that came through. Then we cooked store bought dumplings and ate salad for dinner.
Friday's landfill coal/flyash-caked jeans from work:
Saturday, AA played with Coach Stephanie for nine holes, busy on a Saturday so they were paired with two other people. We made AA's favorite black bean-mango salsa and Ford made his chili for dinner. We participated in our 5:00 p.m. Zoom Happy Hour. Always a good time with Hugh, Maureen, Kathy and Penny. With the Democratic National Convention concluding this past Thursday evening, we are surprised how little politics we chatted about during the call.
Sunday, AA practiced her golf. We grilled hamburgers at home. Carolyn came over and brought a new spinach and strawberry salad - delicious! And a bread pudding dessert (very SWEET with a limoncello sweet sauce on top). Carolyn kept about 3 foot distance from us and gave hugs to Ginger instead of us, sad that we don't quite feel comfortable to begin hugs again. Her library is still closed to the public and I still generally work by myself and Ford tested negative last week (which doesn't necessarily mean we are virus free, but it does say we are doing the right things to avoid getting it!).
We walked Ginger (very rare that we all went on the walk):
AA sorted through her underwear drawers, tossing things too small. Ginger modeled her old cowboy hat!
And school begins in TWO days!!
