HI there,
What's up with you all ?  How'ya feeling? What'cha doing? What's for dinner?


I arrived safely. Slept like a log, that felt good. Coffee is here with me today. Been out for a nice walk, C had some doggie interaction that is going well, she stills dislikes kids .   (I'm thinking too much noise and too many hands and action in her face LOL)   Do you remember those wild dogs that were attacking us?  WEll, there is an america guy who lives around here and walks 2 dogs,, wild ones that he caught and trained and gives a home to. Well he stopped me to let me know that the wild strays are not there anymore (which I had noticed).  Seems a little boy from one of the other buildings got mauled and severly bitten while playing in the park and of course is in the hospital.  So someone took it upon themselves to rid the area of that pack of wild strays,,,,  poisoned chicken bones... the american guy was just warning me so that we take another route, not that C comes across remnants of one of those bones.   Scary...  I really feel badly for those dogs,,, it's not their fault they are wild,, it's us humans who make them like that etc.. and I would never poison them,, but I can certainly understand why the father or mother of that poor little boy might think to do it...  


While we were out on our walk we bought some fresh peas in the pod and ground beef, and fresh flat beans and some melons etc...   so I got busy and am making fresh cooked peas with dilled ground beef sauce, some beans with olive oil , toms, fresh garlic and onions,, etc... oh yes and stuffed green peppers and zuchinnis...  got some nice country yogurt to go with the stuffed peppers.  Today and Tuesday's meals will be ready.  


So what's up with you,,,

Hi Fran,


Have never been to the Olive Garden, but heard of it as my mom used to go to one in her area,, thinking it#s the same chain... could it also be in NYstate?


Do you still have the kids with you... ?

Yes the Indy 500 is exciting to see - I've been fortunate to have many opportunities to go.

we each had a piece last night after supper and there was one piece left. so, dh asked if i wanted it for after lunch today and i said no. i'm losing weight and i don't want the temptation of adding more pounds with the cake. he said he would take it and then all of a sudden he said nah and gobbled it up.
so, now it's not tempting either of us. lol
