Free Produce

Last night had dinner with a long time friend, hadnt seen in forever.   Its was delicious and fun catching up.  The place we picked has beautiful patio looking over downtown and the river.   Its finally cooling off, the fire put felt good.   White lights in the trees, yummy dessert.

Got up early and had coffee with my Granny.  Went to bank for her.  Ordered some slippers she found.

Headed back to hotel, walked the dogs.  Since DH did not clean put his office Friday, he did Sat morning.   Took a chair and some other stuff to nephew.  Yay!

Then we drove out to my friends on the country.   Picked bucket full of tomatoes and handful of okra.

And a bucket of apples!  Looked at all his nice trees he has planted.  He has 200 acres.  Thinks he has planted 100.

Home to walk the pup to tire her out some.  Tomatoes and egg salad dinner. 

Good bye summer

    1. Especially friends who plant way too much! I am not crazy about okra, but when I make jambalaya or gumbo, it has to have a bit of okra in it. My sister in law, tosses sliced okra with cornmeal and fries it.
