exhausting day !  shrimp parmesan sandwich ( half )   glass red wine .. raspberries tree ripened organic peaches and I'm figuring out what to do with the enormous tiny oriental eggplant harvest .

Sha-Cha sechuan eggplant with sliced barely seared tender n lean filet mignon.. homegrown green garlic , ginger  ... 

You would have to be creative and like to cook to have a garden like yours.  I'm neither of those.

Hope you figure out what to do with the eggplant.

Hi Roz,

So are you going shopping this weekend??  Where are they getting married?  Are you making cookies? 

DH and I went out to eat supper tonight, we wanted to go to a place that was opening back up about 15 miles from here, but when we got there their air conditioner was broken so we ended up driving about 35 miles to eat at a Seafood restaurant.  He got the seafood buffet - I can never justify doing that anymore.  I had the fried talipia and it was really good.

I'm not doing much shopping.  My Mom needs a new top with a little sparkle in it and Don needs a Black shirt.  I'm hoping to find something with a little white or red in it.

They are getting married at their church.  That's where they met.  They are both very involved in the Ministries and teaching there. The added on to the church and I haven't seen the insides yet but they are getting married in front of a waterfall. She said it's beautiful.

After I posted last night a friend who made all of the centerpieces for her sisters wedding  said we could borrow the 50 wine goblets that she used for the centerpieces.  I just have to get flowers to match DD's wedding.  I also have to pick up a wedding knife.  DD didn't want a cake but we (and her girls) talked her into it and DH said we would pay for it.  She feels awkward having a 2nd wedding but she was 18 when she got married the first time, Her EX pressured her into it because he was leaving for the service and she didn't enjoy herself at all.  It was a bad marriage from the start. It is a very small wedding with 60 of their closets relatives and friends.  Only the ones *****ally care for them are invited.

I made over 100 dozen cookies for the first 3 weddings plus bought some but decided to order them this time. I ordered 52 dozen.  18 different kinds. Since there aren't many coming I wanted variety and color so I only got 3/4 dozen of each kind. Hopefully there will be a few dozen left over so we can freeze them for the holidays.

I like buffets.  It doesn't matter where I eat it is a waste of money. At least at a buffet I can have a few bites and get some variety.. 

I DIDN'T MEAN TO WRITE A BOOK!!!!

Sounds like it is going to be a beautiful wedding for her to remember. I know by the time my DD's wedding got here I was totally stressed out!  Good luck.
