Wulf, cousin Achilles, cousin Grant...
This fine morning, I decided to make zucchini bread...and keto chocolate zucchini muffins (almond flour, monk fruit sugar)...
So yesterday, Camille and I were in the grocery store, in the back corner, dairy section, finishing up a quick shopping trip. The announcement my dreams are made of came on the loudspeaker: single donuts are now 6 for $2, single bagels are now 6 for $2....I was like PINCH ME, is this REAL? It was like a blast from the past: Attention Kmart shoppers...!
I told Camille they waited until we were in the farthest corner of the store from the bakery, and were watching us on the camera, scurrying...
Am I wrong, or are those donuts beautiful?
We had so much fun, we went to Kohl's...they had some clearance...not for me, I tried on six things, and nothing fit right. Even a Land's End bathing suit, it was all squishy in the top, and made me look like an eight year old girl. But Camille found a Columbia rain jacket for $15, two cute skirts, a cute top, and it was all $17, after my ten dollars Kohl's cash.
Anyway, it's busy here...Emily, Abigail, and Mariel are bringing dinner over...ribs and Mac&cheese, and I have pork chops in the oven, along with some baked applesauce.
I've had two training sessions with Abigail, am learning some bookkeeping basics. I've got a ways to go, and will do some studying tonight...tomorrow I'll do another session, it's coming along.
Ah well, so much is going on here. Poor Grace is here with her kids, and her mama back home in Lousiana is with her mama, Grace's gramma, who is sick in the hospital, and honestly, not doing well, as in she won't be going home. It's sad. Pray for Grace's mom, if you are a praying person, that she can endure the day, and have peace and comfort from God as her mama goes on into heaven.
The day is winding down, this post was done in fits and starts, but what a wonderful day it's been.

I’m sorry to hear about Grace’s mom, sending prayers. Those donuts look delish! I’m jealous;) We “donut” (do not) have any good donuts in my part of Florida, they’re kinda just meh. I gotta say, like Margaret’s shirt lol. :)
