Up and raring to go at 5:30 this morning had my oatmeal and a bit of stretching exercise, computing and stuff, Then headed on out for a nice walkabout town, 2 miles in this morning, Chatted with some friends I have not seen for a few years Maggie and Bill, have known for close to 40 years here in town always nice to see them and catch up. Stopped at Pettigrews, checked our Lottery ticket won 2 bucks so reinvested it and back home, Soon to enjoy a light tasty lunch.

there was a large noisy crow in that tree with no leaves,
when I took the picture he was gone |
Then another trip to New Hamburg Beer and Liquor store to stock up before the long weekend and crowds storming these and the Grocery stores. Then to the Home hardware in Plattsville to pick our garbage bag tag for pickup tomorrow. Chatted with them there about another expansion, They are opening and LCBO outlet there, and will be selling Beer, wine and alcohol in the near future. Great news for our small town. I am sure it will generate even more regular business there.

Now to relax enjoying (after a busy day yesterday) this wonderful afternoon late summer weather a perfect 75F with clear blue sunny skies and a slight breeze, enjoying our e-readers I started another good book by Robert Crais with Elvis Cole and Joe Pike always enjoy their adventures.

| love our quiet views here |

| another wonderful exciting read |
Soon it was time to whip up supper. Tonight going to pan fry a couple of cod fish fillets on our Weber Q. The trick is a heavy pan (cast iron ) heated then add a couple of tablespoons of oil, and with a light breading of Flour or Fish crisp, we like 2-3 minutes a side, it will release from the pan nicely browned and turn over until the other side is browned, drain on paper towels and serve immediately. We added to our salad and candied carrots then enjoyed a very tasty meal.

| this turned out wonderful |
I bought some carrots the other day 3 lb bag was the smallest so decided to made some candied carrots, I don't like cooked carrots but really like them done this way and have not done for a very long time. I sliced up a large carrot and boiled until tender, drain them then some melted butter, brown sugar melted in the same pot, stirred them until nicely coated nicely glazed then served. Oh my are they ever tasty!

DeleteAh that's a great day you had! Nice to be able to relax for a change :) you do tend to stay busy!
ReplyDeleteIt was a wonderful day we both enjoyed, can always be busy doing something.
DeleteActually the rabbit picture looks very artsy, you could probably sell it for big bucks :-)
ReplyDeleteThe best I could get and thought is was kinda cool, don't know about artsy though .
DeleteThe carrots sound good and the fish looks quite good. Your rabbit picture looks like sponged art, I like it.
ReplyDeleteIt was all good and the rabbit picture I thought was kinda cool as well.
DeleteThe more sugar on those carrots, the better!! LOL
ReplyDeleteYes they were wonderful brown sugar and butter made them very tasty.
DeleteSounds like a nice relaxing day and I love those temps. We had cooler weather for a few days but now headed back into the 90's - your kind of weather.
ReplyDeleteIt was a wonderful day thanks Larry. Think our hot weather is pretty well done for this year.
DeleteIt is good to have a day doing nothing much. Think I will do that tomorrow, and will do some carrots like yours, they look good and the grandchildren might like them too. Its Fathers Day here tomorrow so we have the family coming for lunch. Happy Fathers Day to all the dads.
ReplyDeleteThese days are wonderful. I hated cooked carrots until I had these, I think the bands may like them.
DeleteHappy Father's Day there as well thanks.
For a relaxing day you sure did a lot of things. I just loved the way the codfish fillets turned out. Also liked the bunnie picture looks cool.
ReplyDeleteIt was quite relaxing, and fillets were excellent thanks.
DeleteWas surprised how the bunny picture finally turned out.
