Wednesday ( A Busy Day )

United States
September 30, 2026 10:07am CST
Happy Wednesday Everyone! looks like a decent day ahead weather-wise. A bit warmer so I'm back to short sleeves and glad it's not humid. Yesterday turned out to be busy so although I was here chatting for a bit I didn't have time to write a discussion, It's fine, I really didn't have much to talk about anyway., Today I have a lot to do. We're having eggplant parmesan for dinner with spaghetti so I have to get the sauce cooking and then bread the eggplant to bake in the air fryer later. Tomorrow is my oldest daughters birthday and we'll be having a girls day to celebrate. My youngest daughter took off from work so we'll be going out for lunch, shopping and whatever else they decide. My kitchen will be getting a lot of use today as I also want to make red velvet cupcakes. Red velvet is her favorite so instead of a whole cake I figured cupcakes would be nice. I thought I had a nice gift bag for her gift but can't find it. Don't know what the heck I did with it so if I can't find it guess I'll have to go the old fashioned route and wrap it. I used to love to wrap gifts but not so much anymore. Aside from kitchen duty my day is basically routine. I'm trying to relax a little, enjoy my coffee and catch up here before tackling everything that has to get done. What's on your fun agenda today? Anything??

Oh, she’s going to love the red velvet cupcakes! Yum. I’ve always wanted to try eggplant Parmesan, but haven’t seen never had the chance. I was supposed to go to the post office, but it was pouring rain, and the box is large. I’d never get it to the car if I went now. I’m not going to complain though since we finally broke the drought. Hope your day is awesome!

Guess you'll be holding off and not trying to manage a large box to the post office. Good to hear the drought is over. I think you gave me the idea of making cupcakes instead of a cake

Happy BD to your daughter, I hope she'll receive thousands of delightful little surprises. I'm doing anything that comes to mind, probably mostly nothing unless it's nice out so I can do some yard work

Hope it's nice enough for you to be outside. Getting out of the house is so much better than being stuck inside

Yes, that's so very true @Marilynda1225 Plus, here in the desert as soon as it rains the weeds begin to grow, some in my back yard are already 3 ft tall, I'll be getting plenty of exercise once Hurricane Polo finally dissipates ..... I hate when there's a hurricane on the pacific ocean cuz it causes way too much flooding in desert areas that usually doesn't get very much rain like here in El Paso.

Nothing exciting, the day was sunny and warm, I went down to help my neighbor to wash her car and we had fun together.

@Marilynda1225 Nah, I went to an all day breakfast kind of place, so I still had breakfast. They did have some interesting lunch items though. I will have to show up there sometime for one of those.

Guess it's not running on time so your plans for brunch might be lunch

I have a heap of gift bags but they're mostly Christmas ones. They're very handy. Birthday wishes to your daughter. I'm sure you'll have a great time together.

I also have a bunch of gift bags that I recycle and they do come in handy. I used to enjoy wrapping gifts and making them all pretty but these days I'm happy enough to use a gift bag.

Sounds like a full day but a good one. Eggplant parmesan and red velvet cupcakes, yum, your family is lucky. Hope you find that gift bag and have a great girls day tomorrow.
