Daily Notes- August 21st

 

My collection of Farm Produce my daughter brings over to me from the farm across from her employer's place.  The zucchini squash is the perfect size for a zucchini pizza so that is something I will be making. The spaghetti squash just now (minutes ago) found a new and very happy new home.

I do like acorn squash but think of them more as Thanksgiving food.  The yellow squash-  I might use them after peeling away the tough outer peel.  Yesterday I did use a smaller peeled yellow squash and the red pepper for additions to the leftover lo mein.  Very pretty color combo and just right amount of vegetables to noodles.

I have had my breakfast, done a load of wash and read the newspaper.  Some of Trump's quotes this morning regarding the post office and Steve Bannon were downright hilarious.  "hardly know him" but he did run your campaign for months and months???  Bannon was also "removed from the 150 foot yacht by US Postal Inspection Services".  And, gosh, that made me laugh out loud.  

Marine Helicopter Squadron 366 - nickname "Hammerheads" will be doing exercises at the former Navy Base- 600 feet from my property line.  But Riley isn't here to have serious panic attacks from the noise going over the house roof at 11pm.  CH-52Es-the largest in the US military.  I think they do land and sea rescue. And we are on the ocean so that's most likely their target. Ocean rescue.  They are based in North Carolina.  And the noise and vibration over head is unbelievable.

I have been interrupted from writing this post several times.  Phone calls, emails etc.  Once I hit publish nothing else will happen around here.  Husband is doing his hour long series of back exercises and then he will finish work on installing his new door on his workshop. I have the tomato boxes to water, another load of laundry and then I will shred my zucchini and make zucchini pizza.  Wonderful.

And I thought today would be boring.
