Well Friday was another very warm and humid day with fog to start the day and then bright sunshine with high humidity until late evening when a sea breeze seemed cool down the temps. I started the day with my usual 6'ish roll out to my cup of tea and then my morning routines that always save some time to honor my Creator and Lord giving thanks and lifting several up by name. All seem as well as can be expected. I decided not to return to the pickle ball courts until Monday despite the knee doing quite well with no pain or stiffness. I did take a hurried bike ride just before supper for about 20 minutes of non stop pedaling through the hood and I gave no noticed to the knee. It felt great to get some cardio in, however I did work outside in the gardens after breakfast and worked up a sweat mostly from the heat and humidity.
I harvested my first batch of romaine lettuces, kales and collards for the salad bowl and for Nancy's Zuppa soups she made later in the afternoon. We have our life group Christmas party this evening and the main courses are Italian themes so she made a huge pot of Zuppa soup to share as an appetizer and enough for us to have for our supper. Delicious and a favorite of our family. She was in the kitchen most of the afternoon getting ready for the grands coming for the annual Christmas cookie decorating event. She made the dough up ahead of time and all they will do is cut them out and then decorate. There will be balls, sprinkles and colored decorations everywhere by the time they leave after lunch. I'll serve them grilled dogs and chips for lunch however I'm sure they will be full of cookies and sweet decorations as always.
I read the afternoon away helping with the dish washing from time to time as she made ginger snap cookies ahead for the grands as well along with the dough for the Christmas cookies. She was whupped by the end of the day and had Aunt Betsy come by for a load of cookies as well. I did eat a couple of the ginger snaps which were delicious and good for the yummy but not for the spare tire, oh well. After supper I did the clean up and then we settled into the evening news and this potus and his minions are destroying the country and leaving us open to war with both Russia and China with his inept leadership and with his administration. The dem party is setting up the midterms for their illegal ballots to be the deciding factor using this virus as the reason. Mark my words they will attempt to steal these elections but I do see many who are jumping ship, LATER
