When I was a kid, my parents and friends always went out to Sunday dinner. There were 2 or 3 restaurants they preferred. One had a specialty of chicken and dumplings with green beans and various salads on the side - all very good. Not long ago, hubby, daughter and I went to a Cracker Barrel hoping for the same kind of thing since chi9cken and dumplings is one of the dishes they are known for. Disappointing! The chicken was a few thin pieces per serving, sliced in a food processor. The dumplings were tastless and gooey and the only good thing we were served was the decent salad and apple pie dessert. If we want it to be good we now fix it at home.

I really hope you get back in time, Dex. In the immortal words of Dr. John (slightly adjusted :) ), If you don't do it somebody else will, but YOU enjoy it and it's a chore to me. arrrrrrrrrgh
Sunny right now but with rain predicted. May be the rain that brings in fall - at last.

This morning I decided to make up apple pies for the rest of the week and the weekend. In the process I sliced my right middle finger and now have a bandage restricting my typing. I have a few other things I wanted to post today but, even with my husband's help I need to stop and give it a rest.
Have a nice fall day - all.
love Jessie

Today I was attempting to make a call on my cell phone and found that it was dead.
I had only charged it up that morning and I thought, “Great, another thing that is broke.”
Then I discovered something, “I had shut it off,”
I tell you that the so called golden years, exist only because as one gets old, you increasingly live in a world of not knowing what is going on. Most importantly you increasingly don’t care.
On top of that, we had our first snow flurries this evening. I think I'll go set with my dog.
