SO GLAD TO BE HOME after being gone all day. What was suppose to be a fairly nice day weather-wise turned out colder than predicted with the heavens spitting white pellets. No SNOW yet. That's going to come later tonight. Staying at HOME means more to me when the weather turns off bitter cold and slick. When the cold Winter winds blow, I thoroughly enjoy staying WARM at HOME.
NO BREAKFAST THIS MORNING. No Hot Tea. Dashing off for the day meant a quick trip to Small Town America's Post Office to see about the Post Office Box that we are renting. They are changing the combination on the Box and we haven't been able to catch up with the Lady that will change this. Hubby asked if the Clerk could go ahead and changed the combination and leave the info in the PO Box to where we can go ahead and start using it? We've paid the rent already a few weeks ago.
Dropped some wet socks and undies off at the COTTAGE to dry and will pick up later.
MY PLANS CHANGED, but all worked out just fine. LUNCH was going to be at St. Marys SUGARCREEK where I'd have a Rachel Salad, but instead LUNCH was a RED ROBIN Avo-Cobb-O SALAD. Which I like very much and this picture looks just like what I had down to the three slices of avocado. It was very filling. With Salad Dressing it was probably close to 600 calories, but then shame on me there were the Steak Fries with dipping sauce where I just have to guess on the calories. I would imagine I hit a thousand before 1PM.
Grilled chicken, bacon, Bleu cheese, hard-boiled eggs, tomatoes, croutons and avocado on mixed greens with choice of dressing.
STRAIGHT TO GOD'S STOREHOUSE to thrift. Did I? Yes, I did. I came across two amber yellow colored Depression glass Dinner dishes that I collect. Madrid pattern. Good price. Happy to get. I'll add these to my collection that I keep in the Dining room corner cabinet.
I picked up 3 cook books, 2 movies, some Valentine treasures that I will share with loved ones, costume jewelry, a sweet rabbit figurine for Easter and a Springform pan that I will use to fix that low carb cheese cake that I am going to make. THRIFT DAY was discounted at the check out and we left HAPPY CAMPERS.
A HOBBY of mine is looking through COOK BOOKS. These caught my eye. They'll be good fun to thumb through and see if there are some recipes that I will fix.
THE REST OF THE DAY WENT WELL. Banking business, off to Natural Grocers for Top Coat Fingernail Polish, Target, Dollar Tree where things are no longer a dollar, but a dollar and a quarter for Valentine Cards. Caught our breath before driving HOME.
Drove across the Prairie leading the way picking up our laundry. Decided to stop by a small shop purchasing some cheese. Off to the regular Grocery Store where I needed to buy some cream cheese. Took a drive through the park and landed at HOME for the evening where I will watch episode 2 of THE GILDED AGE.
Supper will be just snack food like POPCORN.
TOMORROW, I believe I will work on CARE PACKAGES hopefully placing them in the mail before noon. That's if it doesn't snow. WINTER IS HERE. The wind is howling outside with snow in the forecast. Perhaps I'll be waking to snow in the morning. If that's the case, I will be staying HOME putting off getting out until it's better traveling.
NEXT...painting in the Dining room.
It's February after all,
