Harvey Headed Our Way

Well, looks like Harvey has headed this way. We are just supposed to get rain and we have some tornado watches out. The temps have been really nice outside though.

I bottled up a couple of bottles of kombucha last night. It has a nice fizz and you can definitely taste the fresh fruit. It's still just a bit strong for my liking but the fruit did make it better. I will continue to experiment on the flavor and best fruits. I have a new batch going and know more about what to do this time. I should have a lot better luck on this one.

I'm looking forward to this weekend even though it is only Wednesday. I'm planning on visiting the market on Saturday to pick up some good fresh food and then to the grocery store. I need to go by the hardware store and get a kaiser blade and a ballast. I need the kaiser blade for clearing a slightly grown up area at the back corner of my lot and a strip of land out front when the weather gets a little cooler. The ballast is for my fluorescent light in my kitchen which has become more and more difficult to get it to come on and has a hum to it. Hopefully my minor electrical skills will be up to it. I need to replace that light switch as well while I'm at it.

This will be a nice long Labor Day weekend. I had a friend come for the weekend last weekend which I really enjoyed, but it will be nice if I can just relax by myself this weekend. I'm sure I'll do some cooking. Corn is on sale so I'll probably get some of that and make fresh cream corn to put up in the freezer. I have a roast that I might cook as well. I have ribs in the freezer too so we'll just see if the temps hold out and if I feel up to smoking some meats.

I look forward to playing my games tonight. We had a couple of new people join our little guild so I look forward to getting to know them. I got to play with one last week and he seems really nice. We have a lot in common so I think he'll fit right in. He has a bad cold though so hoping he will feel better soon so we can have some more fun. The other joined today and from what I've gathered talking to him, I think he'll be a fun addition to our little crew as well.

So that is all for now.
