~Real Bakeries~

Penny is here today getting us all clean for
the week end.. We are gonna make chicken
breast filets with tomatoes and onions... Like
chicken catchatorri or how ever you spell it.
Its really my own recipe. Sometimes I have
just used tomato soup not diced tomatoes..
I am going to cook some linguine pasta to go
with it.. Plus Penny making some blueberry muffins.
I LOVE those things.. Years ago they had REAL
bakeries.. not any more.. Well Meijers and Wal
Mart do have bakeries.. but the stuff they put
out cant compare to what a REAL bakery makes.
2 crows....

There were 3 up north.. The one in Stambaugh,
where I grew up was called Robergs.. Then there
were 2 bakeries in Iron River, one was Tass's..
they went to our church, they had a very small
bakery. The other one was bigger...but the goods
from all 3 were WONDERFUL... They don't have
one here or in Three Rivers.. Those kind of bakeries
almost seem to be no more.. Well not here anyway...
I think in the bigger cities where they still have
lots of customers.. But when the mines closed down
up north.. the size of the towns got smaller.. In fact
the town, Stambaugh, where I went to school is no
more.. or even the towns of Caspian, Gaastra and
the one my dad was born in Palatka.. All have gone
and now known as Iron River and its STILL not as
big as it was when I was growing up... Time marches
on and things change so drastically.. and so many
cannot accept changes..
Crow and BlueJay...

No matter what the changes are.. Your surroundings
or specially your health.. some have such a hard time
to change much less are WILLING to.. Many wont
and would rather just sit back and whine.. I CANT
DO THIS .. or worse.. I WONT... Have to be able
to "Roll with the flow" :-) Maybe that's why I'm on
wheels now.. so I can "Roll with the flow" easier and
CAN accept all these changes these past years.. I
contribute a lot of my being able to do this because
of the upbringing AND that Ive not HAD an easy
way .. its always been a fight.. and Ive had to accept
changes if I wanted to survive.. and I'm STILL here!
2 Blue Jays..

Well ANYHOWAY.. I got some great pics here today..
I hope you enjoy them.. I have the best time watching
all these birds .. I was glad to see the black kittie..
Hes so pretty , but VERY skittish.. We had to sneak
up on him to get the photo.. I forgot on one of the
photos to turn the flash off and it flashed .. Penny
says "LIGHTNING!! Its sposta storm".. I laughed
and told her, "No was the camera flash".... :-)


Post time and cooking time.. and for this GORGEOUS
WEEBLE to help Penny.. Y'all have a good week end,
but Remember !! I shall return! :-)

Always, Lois ****


God Bless You, is my prayer today,
I'm so honored to call you "friend".
I pray the Lord will keep you safe,
Until I write again...

    Hi, Honey,
    Those are GREAT photos, as usual.
    I wish I could taste some of that cooking that you and Penny do. It sure sounds tasty!! Probly no good for my waistline, though!!! I've lost 7lb. in the past four weeks, but it is SUCH a struggle, when you enjoy good food and all around you are good cooks!!
    Take care, Honey,
    Luv Ya,
    Raife

    Hiya Mary :-)
    I kinda think so too.. hes very shy.. They all are.. hopefully they will come to me.. or not run when I open the door to see them better :-) Ickky day here today too..

    Hiya Raife!! :-)
    Awww thanks honey.. You take great ones too.. but you got one of those superdooper cameras :-) Well come on ! I think its pre-ordained what our body size will be.. Eat 1 teaspoon of vinegar and one of oil..and 3 glasses (small ones) of grapefruit juice.. you WILL lose.. The oil and vinegar help to break up stored fat.. Eat a nice salad.. but use oil and vinegar dressing.. Popcorn is a great snack too.. Remember now, to watch the salt..if you retain fluids.. you wont lose as fast..:-)

    Good to hear from you!!
    Love N'Hugs,
    Lois****
