weather etc

well it appears the monsoons are over for the time and now we have 95 temps to deal with. what happened to our nice spring and fall. we don't seem to have them much anymore here. we go from extreme cold and wet to extreme hot and dry. I love the spring and fall when you don't have to dress up or down to be comfortable in the yard or garden. I guess everything changes. Mother did some cooking this week and seemed to enjoy that. She loves to fix things for kaye. although pete is learning to cook a lot, she still wants to make sure she has something good and tasty when she is up to cooking. She'd still have the big dinners for everybody if I could keep up but alas, I have aged to the point that a peanutbutter sandwich sounds right good most of the time and have no disire to bring out the big pots and pans and do massive cook-offs. I do remember how much we loved them.  Mom would cook huge meals out of whatever we had and we'd have company and play music and sing and it was a great time. we rarely were invited out, with so many, so we had folks in a lot. When Dad became ill, it was mothers way of socializing and not needing to leave the house and although she did shop, we would go by the store or go to the farmers market or into the garden and get what she needed and kim brings fresh eggs even now. They are so much better than storebought. Have you ever really looked at fresh eggs against storebought? Big difference. If happy chickens have anything to do with it, kim and phil have the best. although those eggs joe and teresa get in the country are pretty good too. well so much for eggs. Hope all had a good memorial Day holiday. stay safe and cool
