Boy, time really does fly when you're having fun! I am getting stuff ready to throw into the suitcase to head back home. Just this a.m. my friend, Debbie, took me to Festival for the fresh-from-the-cow cheese curds which go back with me. We first went to McDonald's for a drink and hash browns before she took me to Festival. One more thing crossed off the list of to-dos before I leave Manty. Didn't get to Late's but that happens...too little time and too many meals at home!
Last night I made chicken 'n dumplings for dinner but I didn't partake. Mom, Lynn, and Jill said it was good so I trust them. I wanted to have the queso dip I made for enjoying during the Packer game. And I did enjoy it! More than watching the game, initially. Wow, what a wonderful ending to a dreadful game. Wow!
Yesterday morning Mom treated Lynn and me to a pedicure at Sassy Nails. The tech did a good job on cleaning off my goofy great toes, having to get extra machinery used for the acrylic nails to clean off the whiteness on them. It was only the 2nd time I'd had that build-up, the first time the salon in Fleming Island claimed it was it was because I had polish on too long. Well, they turned around and put polish right back on. The tech yesterday said nail polish had nothing to do with it, that it was a calcium build-up or something. I was just happy they took care of it for me.
From Sassy Nails we went to Festival so I could get my ingredients for making the queso dip and the other two ladies got whatever they needed. I struck out getting the type of Velveeta cheese-food Justin uses to make the dip so I bought some in jars. Saved me from having to soften the block cheese in the microwave or on the stove. I would guess it's more expensive this way, but I just was determined to make it, and that's that!
Lynn and I watched the game, which began rather sadly for the Packers and their fans. Oh my, the Lions were having a good time at the Packer's expense. I just don't know what's up with the team this season, and few people do seem to know what the problem is. The receivers can't catch and the running backs were not able to get anywhere. It was frustrating to watch and I nearly went to bed. So glad I decided to stay up and watch the end, the fantastic ending. The Packers won the same way the Jaguars did a few weeks ago, after the official time of play had expired. I was figuratively on the floor in amazement. Aaron Rodgers lofted a Hail Mary pass that was caught, which almost made me think of converting!!! Wow- again!!! I just love watching football with Lynn, and this visit got to watch three games with her. One of my favorite parts of the visit for me. Especially for me! Today I am having pie with Linda and a friend, Joanie, looking forward to that, too!
