the remaking of a kitchen

this was a fun week.....jack was here recruiting so we managed to get in some good meals, here and about. the three of us shopped for used books and just hung out reading, gabbing etc.
the work continues on the path.....a stone retaining wall has appeared along the frontage road and in an "eyebrow" as the path curves toward the overpass. the trees will be planted in front of that i think. the berm that was all grassy is now covered with extra soil, so more area to be seeded or sodded, the former seems to be the favorite right now. but wait, that could change.
my first visit to my new book club was enjoyable. met some interesting people and conversation was good. only prob was i don't love the book, but hey, that happens, right?
the weather outlook is not exciting.....slushy snow a possibility by next weekend. guess i have to pick any tomatoes that have a tinge of red/orange and bring them in to insure survival for eating. there a couple of possible cukes.....but that could be doubtful. i made a start on a big pot of soup yesterday....lots of tomatoes, onions, garlic, several herbs, green peppers, zucchini and whatever else was in grabbing distance. i think i will freeze most of it for later use. maybe by then i will be making bread to go with it! :) for sure!
