Sure is quiet in the garden today

Where is everyone?
I've been out and about, running errands in the rain. Went to Kohl's and found the cutest pillows for my Pine bench seat, at my kitchen table. They are red, white and blue -- stars, checks, stripes -- very patriotic looking for the upcoming holidays, and they match my kitchen very well too! And.....they were on sale!
So that was my fun for the day, finding new pillows...;-).
Despite the rain, we are grilling hamburgers outside tonight. I picked up a great smelling cantaloupe at the fruit stand, and I think I will bake some Vidalia onions. Yes, they are in the stores again!
That's an update on my day. What are the rest of you doing?
See you all later tonight........BB


I need to see what I can get accomplished this evening before chat. I think I will make up a pot of veg.soup. I still need to do something with all the veggies from the platters from Sat. evening. I bagged when I got home Sat. night and put them in the fridge but haven't gotten to cooking or blanching them for freezing yet. I saw a recipe for veg. soup in a magazine the other evening that had sweet potato in it too, I need to see if I can find that one again, thought it sounded interesting. I bought a vidalia onion yesterday to put in the salsa I thought I would make with the cherry tomatoes from the platters. Last year I baked a couple after you talked about them...very good!!! I haven't bought a cantalope yet...the price is still too high for me yet. I have been pigging out on strawberries while the price is down on them. LOL
C U in chat later.

So, I will give you an update on the 2 new cats moving into our 1 dog and 1 cat household: cats are veeeeerrry quiet, Maggie is mostly quiet, but just sits and stares into DD's bedroom where the kits are stashed. We put one of those child-proofing devices (a gate) on DD's door, so cats can come and go, and Maggie can only look. Once in a while she has to bark at them. There were a couple of rough moments last night. DH worked til 9:30 last night, and when he got in, he immediately gave DD a huge hug...well, this broke Maggie's jealous little heart. She sat up on her hind legs and just cried and howled, which only encouraged DH to keep the hug going just to watch Maggie's show.
So that's my day, and I do need to cut up the fruit. May not make it to Chat tonight. Hey, you know it's the final of Amer Idol, which I haven't watched until the last show or two. Both those guys are so good, and I hope they both get good careers started off this. Hope things are settling down with you and your loved ones. Seren
