Rain, Rain, Rain
I was the domesticated diva today. I hung out clothes on the clothes line and took them back in folded. I helped cook a baked chicken dinner with homemade dressing inside. Mom made the gravy and put the dinner together. I ran the vacuum cleaner in the hallway, my bathroom, living room and kitchen. I helped load the dishes and mom started the dishwasher. I haven't seen the evening news reports on the weather, but I can look outside and see it overcast. It looks like a prelude to a storm. It looks like a repeat of yesterday's lighting storm which didn't let up until after 9:30 at night. Mom made a pretty good salad with croutons and ranch dressing. I like those two things on the salad. I am seeing stuff appear on the kitchen floor after I used the vacuum. Tomorrow, the yard trash gets picked up and I might be taking my neighbor to do her cardio-therapy. I didn't commit to it yet. She said for me not to make a trip out of my way, but I will see how I feel tomorrow.

That is a picture of a really nice house. Is it a private residence? It is hard to imagine a private residence being that big and elegant. I notice that there are columns on both the front of the house (street) and the back of the house (beach). There is a balcony on the first and second floors on the front of the house and balconies on the second and third floors on the back of the house. And that dormer on the roof with its own balcony. Can you imagine what the view of the beach and ocean would be like from that dormer? And the tiki torch to the left of the top of the wooden stairs on the left side of the picture. There is only one drawback, two flights of stairs to climb to go from the first floor to the dormer on the third floor. I grew up in a two story house with a basment. I hated having to climb the stairs everytime that I wanted to use the restroom upstairs. The stairs were narrow and steep. Your dinner sounds grand and it sounds like the kind of meal that you would have on Sundays. Tonight Mary made Rigotoni with Ragu spaghetti sauce and fried-up ground beef. With it she served Italian bread and jello with whpped cream topping for dessert. It was all very good. The best part is that there was enough of the Rigotoni in Ragu sauce for another meal. I assume that you eventually got rain because we had a heavy downpour here in Orlando with lots of lightning and the power going off fo a few seconds every once in a while. But the storms seem to have passed and now it is time to dry out. At Cicci's pizza buffet they have salad with ranch dressing already on it. I usually tend to go for the ketchup based dressings such as French, catalina amd thousand island. I always get the salad with the ranch dressing whenever we go to Cicci's because it is so good. I like Cicci's because it is so inexpensive. Tomorrow (Wednesady) at Arby's they are having free charburgers(?) with the purchase of a drink and I think that I will get the peach tea. It is really good. I hope that you and you mom enjoyed your supper and have plenty of leftovers for tomorrow. It sounds like you are having a mini Thanksgiving meal.
Bon apetit. Lew
