We left the ranch around 1:30 Monday and stopped at HEB to pick up some Jalapeño Saltines for a friend and I grabbed us a couple of sandwiches from there along with a salad instead of stopping at Subway.
It's a good thing I did as it took us nearly 2 hours to get to Hillsboro due to a traffic accident.
It was 5:30 before we got home!
I made me a salad and
served Louis Dean the very last of the fajitas!
"Waste not - want not, love!"
Did any of you watch Peirce Brosnan in Remington Steele??
I remember him speaking that line in one of the episodes.
We took turns watering the front and back flower beds after which LD took a nice long bath!
I met up with Brenda shortly after noon at Texas Thrift!
We only shopped that one store and had lunch at Chick Fil A.
The yellow tags were 50% off and the rest was 30% off with our senior discount.
The lamp was $6.
Another yellow tag!
And another!
$3!
The chalk board was $5 less the 30% discount.
I hung this note holder in the foyer to put Summer's mail in and hang things to give in bags.
Louis Dean likes it when I find something for him - so he was happy with this western snap shirt!
Somehow I missed reading this book so I snatched it up!
Not a yellow tag but so pretty!
Brenda found it for me and I could NOT resist!
I'm so glad I got it!
I'm going to use this huge tablecloth to cover the baby grand in the den once I get that window wall done. One more session to drywall and then I will move on to painting, putting up trim and decide on window treatments. Then DECORATE!!
The bracelet and earrings were both yellow tag sales.
This beautiful necklace was not but still a nice bargain with the senior discount.
I start out in the mornings watering the back yard flower beds and herb gardens and close out the day with watering the front ones after the son goes down and then we celebrate with a glass of wine before bed.
I have been sleeping a lot lately so it was 10:30 when I got up this morning and 2:00 before I started preparing our meal.
I saw this recipe on Facebook and knew we would love it!
A little olive oil (I used tomato infused) and a layer of flour tortillas.
Whisk up some eggs - Sherry sent us home with a dozen huge ones - and some chopped homegrown tomatoes with seasonings and chopped onion and fresh chopped herbs from my garden.
Sprinkle grated cheese on top and I added a few sprigs of cilantro.
Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
Delicious!
I had cooked bacon but forgot to add it so I served that on the side.
Topped with sour cream and guacamole - Perfect!
This evening I mixed up a tuna salad and we may eat a sandwich or salad of that after we come in from watering!
Louis Dean has been working on this song.....
Goodnight from the Chapmans!
