Twenty minutes later I had power and was waiting for the chili to cool a bit before putting most of it in freezer containers.
I plan to eat well now and then over the next few ... weeks?
Next project? A big pot of soup, I think. But I'll start it during the day. If necessary, it's a lot easier to cook outside when it's light.

It's a cautionary tale to Arkansas repubs not to get too savory and triumphant.

Highway 27's beauty is year round, but this year's fall colors have been particularly eye catching here, so I can just imagine. Russellville to Mt. Ida is a leg of a trip I've been making for more than 50 years. The landmarks along the way provide the comfortable familiarity that stands the test of time. I think there's something about the air.........

Been admiring your spectacular avatar here of late, young lady. Gotta be the mighty and magical Mt. Magazine I see looming in the background, right?

Have put in a request that the angels sprinkle a few of my ashes on the mountain's north rim while they’re flying me to Glory. Y’know, so I can watch over you and keep you outta trouble!

I flew back from Florida this afternoon and landed in LR just as the storms began. I was driving home from the airport on I40 as the hubby was driving the opposite direction back to the airport, headed to the Dominican.

I didn't think much could top the ocean view I had from my balcony on Miami Beach this week. But that was before I drove through rural Pulaski, Faulker, Pope and Yell counties this afternoon and saw some of the most beautiful colors I have ever seen. I doubt anyone could paint something so spectular and do it justice. I was definitely "driving while distracted", trying to take it all in, knowing this sight would be a fleeting thing and never look exactly as it did at that moment.

Between Dardanelle and Danville, the wind picked up and was blowing the beautifully colored leaves off of the trees and across highway 27 with such force it felt as though I was driving through a flock of manic tropical birds. Exciting and a little frightening all at the same time.

As I told my niece and her friend when I took them home, "It's always fun to go somewhere, but even more fun when you come back home."

“Had three hefty Farmer's market eggs for breakfast.” ~ eLwood

All this talk of buying groceries and cooking brings to mind this story:

Tiffany Jones, 23, a resident of Dallas, was visiting her in-laws and while there went to a nearby supermarket to pick up some groceries. Later, her husband noticed her sitting in her car in the driveway with the windows rolled up and with her eyes closed. Both of her hands were behind the back of her head.

Her husband became concerned and walked over to the car. He noticed that Tiffany’s eyes were now open and that she looked very peculiar. He asked through her closed window if she was okay. She replied weakly that she had been shot in the back of the head and had been holding her brains in her hands for over an hour.

Her husband called the paramedics who quickly arrived and broke into the car because the doors were locked. Once in the car, they found that Tiffany had a wad of bread dough on the back of her head.

A Pillsbury biscuit canister had exploded from the Texas heat, making a loud noise that sounded like a gunshot and causing the wad of dough to hit Tiffany in her head. When she reached back to find out what it was, she felt the dough and thought it was her brains.

Tiffany is a bleached blonde and a teabagger Republican who voted for Romney. But that could all be a coincidence. The defective biscuit canister was analyzed and the expiration date was found to be in October, 2000. Thus the explosion was determined to be Bill Clinton’s fault.
