The Last Tomato And Other Seasonal Things

    Before the first frost warning I brought in the rest of the green tomatoes and have been steadily eating them as they ripened. Sadly, the last one was consumed yesterday so it will be back to the supermarket, less than tasty, variety from now on. Boo-hoo!

   Last week it was a list of appointments, flu and Covid shots on Monday, dental cleaning on Tuesday and finally getting my hair cut today. I also had two Bridge games and two committee meetings so it is a relief to have nothing on the agenda for tomorrow - just a day to catch up on chores.

   I have been filling in for one of the Kitchen volunteers at the Seniors Centre this month so my Friday afternoons are now occupied. He's off south for the next two months (to avoid our bitter winter) so hope he will reciprocate once he returns so I can enjoy some free afternoons come Spring. Wednesday is my usual day to volunteer. 

    Other than that life goes on as usual. I had a nice meal out with "The Lunch Bunch" recently, not to be confused with the RODEO group, and this coming Tuesday is a Christmas lunch and Sing-a-long with the retired teachers, early I know but it fits in with our yearly excursions. Also some family birthdays coming up which I hope won't conflict with other events. We'll work round it somehow. Never a dull moment!
