Soup for the weekend
Made 2 different kinds of soup this past weekend - Chipotle Corn and Creamy Vegetable. I must say, they both turned out fantastic! The Chipotle Corn I probably won't make again because I have a similar one called Chicken Chipotle Soup - that's turned out to be one of my favorites! I might make that this upcoming weekend (Labor Day).
The Creamy Vegetable will be a go-to recipe. It was warm, and homey, and goooooood! I, of course, tweeked the original a little, adding veggies I had on hand & seasonal.
Taking my Dad to Winchester, VA, to visit my cuz, Pammy soon! We'll be going to Washington, DC to see the World War II Memorial - something my father has wanted to do for a while! He's 86 & deserves it! It'll be fun! We'll be transporting Niagara Falls (WNY) food favorites (Goodfellow's Pizza, Trusello's Pizza, DiCamillo Bread) down south to transplanted WNYers!

Hurricane Irene
That's my mother! No, not the hurricane, the Irene. Seems odd hearing it all over the news these days!
My husband's brother & his wife are right in the line of fire in North Carolina - they've been through hurricanes many times beefore but this one is a doozy! Stay safe & get the heck outta there!
In "soup" mood - wanting to make some nice warm soups this weekend - probably going to try 2 new recipes I found - one for Creamy Vegetable/Potato Chowder, and the other for Chipotle Corn Soup. I have a standby, Chicken Chipotle Soup - yummmmmmmm! Seems like I'm in the mood for Mexican food, yep, that's it!
How important is service? Very. Extremely. Tremendously. Seems the Ford dealer we use can't their sh-t together and are 'wienering' my hubby around. That could be the difference from getting another Ford vehicle and getting either a Chevy or a Toyota!
That's what's on my mind, today.

Headache today
Have a headache today. Not just due to the barometric pressure.
When I say something, not everything should be laughed at, put down, or ignored. I'm sick & tired of EVERYONE putting me down in order for them to look good. I mean, WTF, I can't possible be wrong all the time!
I don't want you to look good at my expense - I'm SOOOO over that. Just keep your mouths shut & talk about me behind my back like you usually do.
I may not be right, but you're more than likely not right either. I mean, after all, I DO really know more than you do and we both know it!
Now, on a more uplifting note: the people of Virginia are pulling together to get over that nasty earthquake. Good for yawl!

Hearing this brings memories of my childhood. I remember my mother, in her beauty shop in our basement, combing out hairdos, the wall heater, the 2 hairdryers, and my brother, Bill, singing this song (performing for the ladies!).
I know the best times of my life have already happened, and I remember them vividly.
I remember the huge willow tree in our front yard, my grandmother shucking peas, my pogo stick, the monkey bars at the school across the street. I can remember a lot from my childhood.
CRS now!

Weekend at the track
Spent a great day Saturday at Fingerlakes Race Track for the Handicapping Contest with hubby. Although we didn't win the contest (or even finish in the top 25 spots) had a great time. Weather was great!
I, of course, spent most of the day at the casino & I actually won! Yeah me! I walked outta that place with a whole extra $30 in my pocket! Needlesstosay, I had to buy dinner! That was great too! Pickup at Goodfellows - large julienne salad for me (which probably could serve 4) and a sub for Mario!
Putting plans in place for a road trip to Virginia in October! Might be going by myself - although Bella is supposed to go, too - can't wait to see my Pammy! (& Dylan & Maddie, of course!)

Tomato Pie - yep - had that today. Yummo!
And....
What's up with the Lackawanna Zucchini? Not doin' it! Nope.
Leftovers or spaghetti tonight! Thinking spaghetti!
Why am I wearing a bra? Shouldn't I be wearing kneepads?
