We started off the day with some mental math, handwriting, and getting dinner in the crock pot. Wowzers. 30-40 peeled garlic cloves.

| Nutmeg helped. |
Then we headed out for a few errands. We went to one of our little grocery stores here. Old school, let me tell you. We met this neat elderly man who is a US Marines vet. The kids rode the wild hog for a nickel. A nickel!
We bought some popcorn and a drink and headed out to play on nature's playground.

| Look mom, its a "J" |
Have a blessed day!
Side Note: I think I'll go back through the menu posts and comment on what we liked and didn't care for too much.
A ride for 5 cents is what it was when I was young in the late 40's. Nutmeg peeling and chopping garlic is pretty heroic. I would have quit because my eyes were running. She is good helper! Basil is fearless, playing on frozen ice. I would have been Sage...heading for safe ground. Crow tracks I think...I notice to the left it looks like a Chinese doll..Do you see it? Always have a big stick for protection, Nutmeg...LOL Now that is a J!! Is it a frozen fish or something????
ReplyDeleteLove all these. I have a folder of them. this blog is warm, interesting and newsy...
We didn't chop the garlic cloves, we just peeled them and put them in the crock pot whole.
ReplyDeleteI saw your garlic bowl and was reminded of this video I saw recently... I was amazed that it works!
