...9.26...Over the Weekend...

...I did the weekly shopping in the morning...not much of note...they had the Kashi $1 off each box if you bought three boxes...so I did...
...the only other thing of note...I always buy this brand of no bone char sugar...but it's usually the turbinado variety that's light brown/tan...this is the first time they've had a white variety...which is of course nicer if you want to make something 'white'...
...I had soaked a bag of pinto beans...
...cooked those in the InstaPot and froze them in muffin cups...
...we celebrated the Man's birthday quietly at home...I fixed the last of the summer okra...
...his...fried like Mom makes it...and mine Griddler-ed...of course...
...we fired up the grill...
...and we had a simple birthday meal...I had made a creamy Italian dressing...and I think I put in too much of the Italian herbs and it was a little bit bitter...
...I did not make a birthday cake for him this year...but they sang Happy Birthday to him and gave him a cake at Church...
...and his big present this year...was this canvas print of Our Airman...just an iPhone snap one of his buddies took in the 60...but we loved the composition of it...the stop motion of the rotor blade...just the glowing colours...and his pensive look...and the scenery...I think it's a beautiful picture...
...and I'm typing this morning at my sweet sissie's house...we left after Church and drove to her house...and we sat around and talked all afternoon...I don't know when I've laughed so hard...this is one of my nephews (giving sissie the stink-eye) and me in the serving line...because my sissie definitely got the hosptitality gene from our Mama...
...this was my overstuffed plate of vegan goodness last night...and I'm sure we'll do it all again today...haha...

~Wishing you a lovely start to your week!
