BACON MEATLOAF

Been studying hard for my Bus Driving renewal class. We had a review today of rules and regulations, and tomorrow will be first aid. Next week will be a test at work before we go to CHP and take their new test. That will be the nerve racking part because we don't know what to expect. But the worst part of all is driving while a CHP officer is seating next to you. O MY! Heaven help me.

New way to hard boil eggs

I have read about restarting the bottom of a celery stock by cutting the bottom off and re rooting it so you can grow another celery stock. So I tried it with a scallion and it worked. Started the root in the beginning of summer and pulled it out of the soil today. So cool a new scallion.

Was checking my favorite blogs and found a tip to boil eggs, will have to try this but she said there were some brown spots from touching the pan. Maybe if there was some water in the muffin tins.

Autumn has the most beautiful sunrises.
 
 
Every evening when I come home and open the garage this is who greets me. I love you Gizmo.
 
 
My oldest son had a whole chicken marinating in the fridge overnight. When I came home he had it in the Big Green Egg the most assume smoker ever.

I was signing in to my blog to put this in and could not get in for some reason and some how wound up making a new blog. I don't even have time to do this one, go figure.
