WEEKENDING

 Change your thoughts and
you change your world.

~Norman Vincent Peale

My weekend started early Friday
morning when I drove to an exit
off of I-95 to pick up my favorite
almost 6 year old to spend the day
while her mama continued to drive
to Presbyterian College {PC} to
pick up some of her students. My
daughter is a culinary arts teacher
who is working on her degree to
become a Principle and a person
I am very proud of.

Saturday brought cloudy, drizzly
skies so my beach trip was moved
to next weekend.  I decided to work
on my knitting, but discovered a
mistake in my Aise, in the row below
where I was knitting. After spending
an hour with a tiny crochet hook I
finally got everything back in order,
then I took a nap!

There was a trip to the market for
a few things then a stop at Jersey Mike's Subs
for a vegetarian with all the works that
I brought home to eat while reading
my book. 

I am still picking blueberries and lots
of figs. I discovered a little nest tucked
into the branches of the fig tree, smart
mama bird.  Late last night I made a batch
of Fig, ginger, lemon, honey preserves
and it tastes amazing. I am waiting on
my guys to arrive home to make a batch
of buttermilk biscuits to serve at dinner
so we can eat a jar. I might need to make
a few more batches of this, I think it
would make nice Christmas gifts.

Today the rain is still here. I have my
knitting and a movie to watch. Oh,
and today is National Ice Cream Day
so I need to pull out the ice cream
maker. Enjoy your day.
