Hallelujah!!!! 74 F and no humidity!

I think I died and went to heaven........this is the type of weather I have been dreaming of!  The weather of my childhood summers.  It's wonderful!  I need to be outside but here I sit.  I went to Walmart yesterday when it was still hot so I figured I would get it out of the way so today I could enjoy this wonderful weather.  Yesterday I bought a hand operated "spiralizer" that you can "spiralize" veggies with and I had a bunch of the last of the zucchini......what a mess!  First of all it has to be the right size zucchini  and I had 2 big ones that I ended up chopping, and grating for zucchini patties..........

Then I used the spiralizer and I got spirals..............

but then you're left with these..............which I will slice up tonight and cook.  Plus, I was thinking that this technique is really trying to get kids to eat more veggies but I have no problem....I love vegetables!  The grated is easier although my vacuum sealer didn't seem to appreciate it as much but I managed.  


Just when I was wrapping things up and getting ready to go outside...........the termite guy shows up.  I got a bill in the mail this morning and no one called ahead or made an appointment!   I do not appreciate that at all.  Just because I 'm retired and I'm always home does not mean I don't have plans!   I think that is rude and they will hear about it.....nicely but they had better call ahead and not on the day they're showing up!  I've noticed they are very lax about that down here.....they just show up and for the vet you just come in and wait although she has since changed to appointments.    Very laid back.....not good for me the planner! LOL!
I picked this new yarn up by Lionbrand......it is cotton and bamboo....a bit pricier than the other dish cloth yarns but I thought it might be nice for face cloths.  It is very soft!  I'll let you know how I like it.
I finally finished the first 4 solid Blaithin CAL squares.............I chose black for my border color and joining color.  Now I have to do the 4 Bramble squares.............how did I get so far behind?
Beware the bugs and critters trying to get in your house before winter..........this huge spider was on the outside of the window thank goodness!  The squirrels are running around like crazy and there are spider webs everywhere outside....I've already run face first into a few of them...oh how I hate that! Get ready for the onslaught and be prepared!
 Happy Trails!!!

  3. Hi Sam, I'm glad your weather is a bit cooler. Here our furnace has been running non-stop for weeks already. So unusual for September and early October. I usually have the windows wide open now.
    I have that same spiralizer that you have and I really don't like it at all. It takes forever to spiralize one zuchinni and my wrist hurts by the time I'm done. I've thought about the electric ones but they're pricy and take up a lot of space. You can buy them already "spiralized" at Winco and Trader Joes but they seem expensive to me at almost $3.00 for a little itty bitty bag. I really like eating them though so I need to decide what I'm doing. :-)
    Sorry about the termite gus. Our exterminator did that last month too and I didn't appreciate it. I was on my way out the door and it made me late for an appointment because of course he wanted to do the inside too this time.
    Have a great weekend my friend.
    Blessings,
    Betsy

  5. S.I.A., oh do let us know how the 'CoBoo' yarn crochets up and it's softness... I have been crocheting simple dish rags with cotton 'Peaches & Cream yarn,, but would luv to make some soft face clothes for my grand-kiddos..
    Enjoy your lovely Fall weather and yes,, get rid of those buggers before they nest for the Winter in your home..
    FYI- I too bought a "Spirilizer" thingy veggie cutter,,, I still haven't taken it out of the packaging... and now I am not sure I want too!!!lol!

  6. Hi Sam :) I'm glad you got your lovely weather! I HATE un-announced anything. I wouldn't even open the door honestly. Spiraling veggies is such a big trend lately, and from the pretty pictures I see on Pinterest, I nearly bought one myself! Thanks for the honest review!!!

  7. When laptop shopping, do consider two advantages that local retailers have over online firms. First, returning a laptop is going to be much easier. play bazaar satta king
