And I have a vase full of sunflowers to enjoy all week. And the big guy has too much pie and ice cream.

It's lovely when a partner helps, I'm blessed that way also....he loves doing dishes, helping with preparations, clean ups, etc.....I don't really use recipes, and I do go a bit mad. But the big guy will either take the lead in a kitchen, OR sous chef very effectively, so when I got there this morning at 8:30, my potatoes were washed trimmed and thinly sliced. And I did the pies and jellied salad yesterday, I washed dishes all day as I worked, my company brought some stuff, and my daughter and my bestie helped me finish the final touches to the dinner and put the kitchen back away.
Good morning! For dinners enjoyed, family health issues changing plans, traffic accidents, turkey done with smokers, grills, and other ways, sweet potatoes and other menu items, for the food lists from one feast in particular; as well as any other thoughts that come to mind, or events that come to pass, we gather round the Coffee Cart in spirit. Here we chat, we share mutual support, we do care and compassion, today as a colleague is missed and remembered., The coffee is fresh, tea water hot, doughnuts warm from the bakery. All is ready, all are welcome. Come join the conversations!

Wow @BetteTheRed ...If I ever move, I'm moving to a place near you and becoming your friend! That meal sounds amazing. I'm making turkey broth at the moment, as I listen to the sound of chain saws in my front yard. A tree service company is trimming the four maples in our front yard. Two are quite close to the sidewalk and I've been worried about branches falling and hitting passersby. It's quite a busy sidewalk, and the trees are mature with dead branches. It is amazing to watch these people deftly climb the trees and do their thing. They are truly good at what they do!
The guy behind me asked about taking down a limb that has crossed the fence into my property. I was already thinking of taking down the part that's on my side of the line so I told him to go ahead and just let us know if he needs access to our property. It's interfering with one of my trees so I won't be sad to see it go. First time we've talked since they moved in. He's an ex-pat American teaching at Western but has been in Canada on and off since he did a degree at U of Guelph (their famous veterinary college) and is married to a Canadian.Yes those tree people are amazing. You will likely be surprised by the size of the dead branches when they come down @Nancy

A friend's son takes down HUGE trees safely. He removes bits from the top until there is just the stump left. Never seems to hurt himself or lose control of the tree parts. I'm glad I don't have to watch one of my own kids doing this!
Good morning! A salute to those tree people who do such remarkable jobs. For the work they do, let us raise a cup or a mug. Also for knitting circles and other gatherings that keep us engaged These and other topics and events come with us as we gather round the Coffee Cart in the Room, for discussion, for mutual moral support. Coffee is ready, tea water is hot, muffins are fresh. Come for the baked goodies, stay for the conversations! All is ready, everybodyis welcome. Come join the fun!
