AKathy's "What's For Dinner?" 06/30

Happy Sunday!

It's going to be 100+ again today so my BIL, sister and I are going to see the new Quiet Place movie. We've seen them all together and we still tease BIL about eating nachos during the quiet scenes which is pretty much the whole movie. 

No idea what's for dinner tonight. We may end up at our other sister's house and the pool. I'm so over the heat and it's only June. We've still got a long, hot summer ahead of us. 

Hope you all have a great day!

I guess forgetting what day it is is a hazard of retirement. 😂 Sunday funday will soon be Monday for me. I'm nervous to even look at my calendar. 😉

I'm quilting today. My friend Wendy said I just need to snap out of my fear and get to work. I am a process over product crafter. So usually my hobbies are just playing and if they turn out poorly, I don't really care. I had fun playing and that's all that counts for me. However I really want the camper quilt to come out nice. The fabric cost me a lot of money. And I am tripped up because I keep thinking my skill level isn't where it needs to be for the outcome I want. Hence, my procrastination. 😉 It's ok. My friend Wendy kicked me. 😂 I'm working on it. My progress is on the craft thread.

Today I'm having BBQ rechauffe. I have some salads and like 3 lentil burgers left. Jeremy also has three burgers so I assume he will cook them when he gets home from golfing.

It was hooooooooot yesterday. Jeremy let Kylon play with the hose sprayer. By the end of it, the two of them were soaked.

It’s a breezy, sunny day here in PA. I need to get outside and do some weeding. I then plan on finishing the book I’m reading to finish off my June list. (12 books - retirement is a wonderful thing!)
I have a tender spot in my heart today knowing that we are putting down sweet Bella tomorrow. She is struggling so much so it’s the right time but it still hurts. So today will be a gentle day for all of us as we get our last snuggles in.
Dinner is a chicken salad made with leftover rotisserie chicken and anything in the fridge veggie wise that needs to be used up. We call this kitchen sink salad as we throw in everything but the kitchen sink.
Have a restful Sunday, Peas!

Judy26 I'm so sorry about your pup.

My Sunday is almost over!
We have had hot weather for the past few days, but today was a bit cooler than expected . Still really humid, so not at all pleasant. I shouldn’t complain - it is summer after all and it’s not as hot as some of you are dealing with.
As DH is away, I was on the bus and train into church this morning. It was worth the effort, as my favourite priest was scheduled for Mass today and then we had the bonus of the summer return of a priest who was with our community for over 20 years before he was asked to go to the US and teach at a Jesuit university there in 2020. He comes back every summer for 6-8 weeks, and it’s always good to see him.
As I had to come home on the trains, I decided that rather than just change trains in the city centre, I’d get off and eat lunch in there, as it was after 12 when I left the after Mass coffee and chat.
I’ve been crocheting this afternoon and will do a bit more this evening while watching the football. England v Slovakia is on now and later will be Spain v Georgia.
Judy26, I am sorry about your dog. It is such a hard, but yet compassionate decision to make.
Dinner is Thai yellow curry with chicken and vegetables and rice.

When we had to put our pug to sleep, we planned 7 days of 'fun' for her. She got to eat burgers and scrambled eggs and we even rented a beach house because she loved the beach. It was such a celebration of her life and what she meant for us that it made it easier to let go when it was time. it's never easy but enjoy and spoil her the best you can and celebrate what she means to you. 

judy26. many hugs. our dog is old and I dread that decision.

went to church this morning. our regular pastor out with covid, so we had a retired minister preach.. he is a regular attendee.. great sermon on forgiveness.. he related how he tripped a girl in 4th grade .. and the consequences thereof.. (probably 75 yrs ago!!!)...he was documenting his own long path to being quicker to forgive. not always easy.

the weather is breezy and hot for us--69 degrees. after a horrible game last night, today the giants baseball team are dominated the hated LA dodgers.

I went to trader joes after church.. terrible parking on a sunday.. and got home and realized I forgot what I mainly wanted there.. salmon for dinner. I am going back with dh after the game so he can run in and buy it.
so it is salmon and left over couscous.. and strawberries for dessert.

Judy26 I am so sorry. Give your sweet Bella all the love and snuggles and treats. So hard - thinking of you.

Today did not turn out the way I had planned but it was still a good day. Maybe some of you can send a little of your heat this way? More rain and just not warm. I want summer *pout.* I made a big lunch/brunch with fruit, sausage, and stuffed French toast so I am not going to make dinner and we have some leftover sausage and kale soup we can have. Dh might reheat a pizza to go with it.
