~Bread Day~ MMMM :-)
Penny made it today and made a great loaf of bread.
I have a big bread making  machine and it DOES make
 some good stuff. I got some  saffron last time and
 we made saffron bread it  was DELICIOUS.. Penny
 looked for saffron here at  the Village Market and of
 course they don't have it..  For a store out here in
 the middle of no where  serving so many people you
 would think they would have  more variety and a 
 better selection. Ive just  started to give Penny my
 card and she stops at  Meijers where the selection
 is a lot better.  Be nice  if that store had more.. I
 guess they figure just the  basics and if we want more
 just go elsewhere, which is  what we do! :-)
 Penny picked up some of  those Sara Lee Cheesecake
 bites.. They are  DELICIOUS.. I have to really take
 control or I will eat every  single one of them, that's 
 how good they are. Food is  such a good thing.. It can
 make you sick, happy or  just contented like a pig in a
 mud puddle... I KNOW how  they like that..
 Shirley and Donnie had a  mini farm that David and I
 used to baby sit for them  when they wanted a break.
 We had the best time up  there. Being a mini farm they
 had chickens, 2 horses and  6 pigs.. The pigs they got 
 as babies and raised them  till they are ready to be 
 butchered and then they  sold them...  We were babysitting
 one week end when the dogs,  DJ and Missy, a golden lab
 and a chocolate lab,  started to bark and run from
 door to door... I went to  the door before David could and
 the dogs ran out soon as it  was open,  they made a b-line
 to the barn..
 David and I both ran out  there and the whole of the barn
 was flooded.. Apparently  the pigs area was too dry and they
 decided if they chewed the  hose they would get the water
 puddle they wanted.. It  worked !! But,, to get to the hose,
 you had to go through the  puddle that now had gotten huge,
 and deep... The hose  usually wasn't in there that far but 
 the pigs dragged it in  there.  David climbed over the fence,
 he had tried to pull the  hose back inside the barn , but it
 was stuck.. so he HAD to go  into the pen.. :-)
 Don't get ahead of me... :-)
Yes, his foot caught on the fence and  David did a header into
 the pig pen...  I just stood there with  my mouth open in awe.. 
 I saw David pick himself up and look at  him self up and down 
 with all that mud and water all over  him.. just drenched and I 
 started to laugh.. I told him "WAIT!,  I'm gonna get the camera,
 we need this documented!, no one will  believe us!". :-)  By the
 time I got back with it he had climbed  out of the pen.. He really
 had no choice as the pigs were still out  there and they sure
 didn't like him in there with them.. We  just threw the clothes
 he had on away, what was fun was his  wallet.. THAT was a mess.
 Didn't stop us from babysitting the farm  though.. I thought it
 was hilarious  :-) David didn't.. he was  NOT very happy. At least
 the pigs didn't bite him :-) I still had  to laugh.. was like seeing
 a Funniest Home Video  :-)
 Gloomy kind of day today, dark and  dingy.. I havent done any
 thing today but reply to some emails.. I  am going to sew today,
 and  I am VERY pleased to say my cable  is back on ! I was SO
 disappointed that it was off last nite..  I called to see what the
 problem was and talked to a really sweet  guy in Kentucky...He
 said some one ran into some thing and  all would be fixed soon.
PLUS, for losing cable.. he gave me a month of free showtime!
 PLUS, for losing cable.. he gave me a month of free showtime!
THATS good! :-) With this new bundle  package from Charter
 I will have free HBO/Cinemax as well.. I  think this package
 thing will be cheaper in the long run,  plus will give me free
 long distance- which now I have to use  SKYPE to make my
 long distance calls...  SKYPE is great  if you don't have it...
 Time to eat and get something done today  before this
 day ends.. I don't know what I'm gonna  have and I don't
 reallly care, this GORGEOUS WEEBLE is  HUNGRY!!! :-)
 Post time, food time and time to say  "G'day, G'day":-)
 Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? love  ya and Thanks!!
 Always, Lois ****
 "God Bless You", is  my prayer today,
 I'm honored to call you  "friend".
 I pray the Lord will keep  you safe,
 Until I write  again...

Hello Lois
My daughter gave me a bread machine, never have the time or take the time to make bread with it yet. But I will one day.
I buy whole grain bread now,I love the smell of fresh bread.
Going to Becky tonight, help train more staff for her...
God bless you Lois and keep you safe my friend.

The older I get - the better spicy food tastes. My sense of taste is getting better - and my sense of smell is getting weaker. I guess I have changed too many poopy diapers (nappys)

Well here we go again talking of food!!
See! you set me off again Hun Bun, with all that talking of home baked bread, we too have a bread making machine & we love a nice crusty loaf just freshly made with home made soup it is yummy.
Talking of piggies! well they are some of my favorite animals. My dad & grand dad used to keep them when I was a kid & I loved nothing better after school than go down to the pigsty & see them all especially when piglets were born. They are lovely animals I think.
In fact I couldnt face the idea of selling them & then folks actually eating them !!!
Now I guess I am tougher cause I love bacon, shhhh! dont tell the piglets.!! makes me feel so BAD
You write such great things here on your blog Lois, I love to come by & read it.
Give my best wishes to Penny because I can see from your letters that she is such a nice kind helpful lady bless her.
Hope you have a good day sweetheart.
Love & Hugs AUDREY
