chanterelles

This morning at the farmers market we bought some chanterelles on a whim.  I had never had them.  So I fried them up in pretend butter and we ate them.  I had never tasted anything like them.  So good.  This pic doesn’t show the orange color so well.

Last night Mom beat me at rummy, but then we played speed.  When I won, it was a new thing.  I had never beat her at speed in my life.  So then we had a rematch and I beat her again.  Mom made Twilight Zone sounds.  I said it was because she was sorting all… Read More »

Yesterday was the day before Thanksgiving, and we went to Costco.  And lived to tell the tale.  It was actually not too bad.  Ming had to wait in a line for dinner rolls.  There were mega pumpkin pies for all.

last night

“What should I blog about?”  I asked Mom.  “Kicking your butt at cards last night?” “What was the score?  I didn’t even ask!” “Pizza?  Going to four different pharmacies?” “All around the garden.  Looking for a pill,” Mom said.
