Another hot day so I was out early working in the garden. Scared the little bunny out of the Columbines once again. This time when I said something it actually stopped and looked at me. Then rapidly hopped down the side of the house.
Most of the weeding is completed, I hope to get a bit more done after the dentist tomorrow morning, and then Hubby has cleaned out the herbal planter and the other two small planters I use for herbs. I hope to get those planted tomorrow as well. The rhubarb needs picking and processing as well.
The deck pots will be done on Thursday as I still need to find some small trellis like inserts for the Moonflowers. As I will be spending money at the dentist, I will stop on the way home at Dollar Tree to see if they have anything. There will also be a pickup of Harvey's one prescription, and the bank for our allowances. No spending after that for a few days I hope (wish it was until the end of the month, but there is the church envelope).
After the planting I came in and got the bedding changed over, the fridge tidied, the living room totally dusted, and next months menu plan worked on.
The afternoon was spent trying to get the second corner of the embroidered quilt block completed. I am almost there. Not too sure if I can get a start on the third corner though (would be awesome).
I have been asked about how one can make grilled cheese sandwiches other than on the stove in a fry pan. Years ago my mother would use a cookie sheet and get enough sandwiches made at once to feed us hungry children. She would put the bread slices on the cookie sheet (buttered). Top with a slice of cheese, then place another buttered bread slice on top and stick them in the oven. I did the same when Kurt and Kris were younger and eating us out of house and home.
I hope to have a Saturday post this week with pictures of the projects and gardening done over the past month. Been pretty darn good at remembering to take photos.
Everybody have a wonderful evening.
God bless.
It's lovely to get out into the garden isn't it? I've got a few small jobs to do, but it's mostly up to scratch for the moment so we can now just enjoy it, save for watering.
ReplyDeleteI was able to get a lot of weeding done this week too. I've made grilled cheese sandwiches in the oven too and it works well.
ReplyDeleteI have never tried toasted cheese sandwiches like that before, but they sound delicious. We have a panini press, and use that with just bread & cheese, and it melts & gets the bread toasty without any butter. Yours sounds better. - Hawaii Planner
ReplyDeleteThat's a good idea with the grilled cheese sandwiches. We had a cold front move in - complete with a little snow above 6-7,000 feet in elevation. But after this passes it will be hot again. I'm enjoying the short reprieve.
ReplyDeleteJackie, Hi! I'd love to hear how & what you do with wool, felting etc. I am trying to learn more about it. Faith @FarmhouseWorthy
ReplyDeleteDear Jackie, I love grilled cheese sandwiches as well as toasted cheese sandwiches!
ReplyDeleteI have never made a toasted cheese like that before - but it would be a good way to make a lot all at once. I like the stove top method, as they get a bit smooshed with the spatula as I cook them!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have been a busy gal.
I tend to use either a griddle pan or a gizmo I have for the microwave to make my toasties, but there's loads of different methods and they all taste great, I am sure.
ReplyDeleteYour garden sounds great - I envy you the rhubarb right now. :-) xx
You got such a lot done. I hope the dentist went well 🤞

We use a sandwich press to make grilled cheese but have done them in the oven too.
