Colder, and sunny, perfect day for a large pot of ham and potato soup

Where are we today ?

Robertsdale Alabama

        Wow we had heavy rain last night for a few hours, wind and some thunder, but no tornadoes. Power outage for a while and lost our satellite tv for a bit. No problem just turned our inverter, switch to tv antenna and we good to go. Of course this only happens 5 minutes after we turn on the tv about 8 o'clock at night.

        But had a good sleep listening to the very heavy rain on our roof, kinda lulls us to sleep. This morning was cold again about 27f (-3c) but sunshine and not too windy, sure felt like fall weather. Great day to make a pot of soup.

         A quick trip to town for a few things and back home to work on our left over ham from the other day. Started with ham and eggs for lunch, a treat for us, then carved up the rest, made a nice big pot of ham and potato soup perfect for a cool day. Even got a chance to read for bit while it simmered away.

tasty Ham and Potato soup

         After sampling it we decided that we could have nice hearty supper of the soup and a grilled cheese sandwich, sure hit the spot. (somebody has to eat it). Oh and a couple of my homemade shortbread cookies for desert. We have a bit more ham left, a few sandwiches and a casserole should do it tomorrow.

perfect for a cool day

        Not summer weather but sunshine, no snow and almost 55f (13c) in the sun. Nice for a few walkabouts at least.

        Now before we know its time to relax, compute and read a bit more, turn on the tube for a few minutes then hit the sack. Nothing too exciting but hey, we had a busy day yesterday, can take it easy today. And that is something we do enjoy.

         Glad you dropped in and hope you had a great day too.
