Congrats Munky. I'll bet you have a great day!
The Pirate took me shopping and we just got back. I went to the Dollar Tree store first and he went into the Verizon store to see if his phone could be fixed. It was fried, but the girl there had a trade in that she just got and sold it to him for $60. It is a Razor with a much bigger screen. He is getting old man eyes and can see it again. I got some little things in the Dollar store like a pad of paper to have at the computer desk. I always have to grab a piece of paper off the printer.
I also got some hand soap and other little goodies. Spent the grand sum of $8.00. The we went over to Stop and Shop. The one thing I really needed was half and half. Oh dear God, please save me from Saturday when DiMoulas is not working and they are all going to either S&S or Shaw's. The Pirate got knocked right off his feet and took down a display with him in doing so. So the little old lady felt the resistance when her cart was up against him, but she pulled back and then rammed him. He didn't have a chance to get out of the way in time. We got the half and half and got out of there as fast as we could. Imagaine the customers of two stores with food stamp shoppers along with their regular customers on a Saturday. I will wait until Monday morning to do my monthly shopping. It was worsed than shopping the day before the July 4th holiday. Time to rest!
So wearing the Big Girl shoes today, huh? My deepest sympathies.Our adopted son is getting married in just a few hours...Gotta get ready.Practice walking in heels before I go public.
Will post pics when I get back.
SO and I are watching Cat Ballou (1965) on TV. This has always been one of my favorites. Lee Marvin is a hoot.
Thanks, Kathleen. My Mom used to make those pickles and used alum. I have her recipe cards. I should look and see if I can find it in there.

..."They are trying to drive him off his land! They put manure in his well. They made him talk to lawyers!"...
The ultimate horror! We commented on that line as well.
Kind of hokey looking back almost 50 years but I really enjoy Lee Marvin's (Oscar-winning) performance.
I love Cat Ballou, so much fun!
Our cable company offers the COZI network. It's full time old tv shows and movies from the early days. All your favorites from the 50s and 60s.
I'm not in for a steady diet of the stuff, but it's a kick once in a while.
