Gardening and shit like that

I have probably already used this but oh well
*277*

I just came home from doing some stuff for myself. I went to the Salvation army and spent $15 on a pair of summer pants and 5 shirts. Lots of color!! I got a hot pink one too. WooHoo!
Then I went to the community garden. I picked the last of the arugula. I also left one to go to seed. I have some new bibb lettuce growing but I had some to  harvest too. Something is getting at my Thai basil. I do not know what.  Everything else is growing wonderfully! It is going to be a bumper crop of tomatoes this year, i can feel it. I am going to go out to East Lyme this coming week and buy some more tomato plants.
There were strawberries to pick also from the area where the plum tree is. All the plums are teeny tiny right now. They are for anyone to pick but you cant be a hog about it.

I think I am going to do burgers on the grill tonite. I am tired. I was up late late late last night with Fred (and that is all i am gonna say! LOL)
 I took pics of the garden and I will post those tomorrow. My broccoli has a floret! I just do not know when to pick it.  Need to research.
Bye for now.

Four more days!!!

Time to get your grill on!
*281*

  Four more days until Christmas! I was able to find charcoal for my beat up assed grill right there. Yup. I am going to grill ribs for Christmas (sort of). Fred has to work on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day (and the day after) but he has tomorrow and Thursday off. So I think I am going to do the ribs on Thursday. I have to make some potato salad, hard boil some eggs, and defrost the ribs that I bought. It is a treat so I bought them when they were on sale a few weeks ago. I will cook them in the oven in roasting pan with foil on top..basically steaming the ribs. Then I will finish them off on the grill and cover with the Arthur Bryant BBQ sauce Fred was gifted from a co-worker. Yummy!
 I have a window to cover, potatoes to peel and boil, eggs to do, and a bathroom to clean.
I was able to get the clog out of the tub with this plastic stick thing that I found at the hardware store. It was gross! OMG! So now I am going to scrub the tub and shower walls and get the bathroom all spiffy...after I do my blog posts.
FOUR MORE DAYS!!!
