Hi Ma!
One is taller (barely) and the other one will be taller probably before he reaches his teen years. Otherwise, the sun is shining. Hope all is well with you. Thank you for your dedication to our Troops, Veterans, and especially to their families. *HUGS*

Hi Ms. B! Just wanted to stop in and say “hello” and “thank you”. Things are getting better over here. It has been a rough month or so. However, I look forward to a spectacular November and December.

I’m going to try that this weekend!
Does anybody remember the “Mock” apple pie that was made with Ritz crackers?
That was really good, too!

Our weather this afternoon was very similar. We had rain
overnight (1/2 inch) and it got up to 68 or so. A nice
day all around!

I made a modest Shepards Pie for supper.
All Mr B had to do was pop it in the oven.
Simple recipe, but quick to fix during the busy week!
