I'm watching the Pitt-Rutgers game & Pitt leads. But such weather to play in, altho it's warm. Lots of rain & mud. Lots of water in the school yard.
Just finished a letter to Gen.
Got an invite to Ford & June's 50th wedding anniversary the 25th of Nov. but we won't make it.
Dad's 50th reunion at Augie will be May 20 + 21 & we'll visit you after that & also Rkfd.
We got our Christmas Club checks this past week & we've done well on our shopping. The boxes are piling up in our bedroom. Soon we'll have to warp them. Went to Erie last Tues.
I found a new author Alexandra Ripley. She wrote "Charleston" & I think it's "The Return to Charleston", which I read first. Yesterday I got "Charleston" & a book by Susan Howatch "Glittering Images", which I started & should be interesting.
I try to make a menu for the week ahead & this week I plan to try a hamburg casserole from your Library cookbook. There are 2 interesting ones. I'll try the one that calls for both creamed & whole kerneled corn, plus soups. Made a pumpkin pie today, my favorite. Last week I made a delicious soup using beef cubes, lots of veggies, kidney beans, chili powder, etc.
Levinson's & Betty Lee's are having sales but they haven't knocked that much off the prices. In fact Kim had been watching a certain piece of furniture & the first day of the sale she went in to see the price & they had upped the price & then put it down - but the new price was more than the price before the sale. They are foxy! She was disgusted & asked "How Come?"
Are you going to take Andy to swee Santa Claus - perhaps have his picture taken with him as they do here.
There have been a series of rapes in Warren but in this AM paper only 2 are legit & 3 girls are in trouble with the law for lying to the police. 2 were suppose to have taken place in the Mall parking lot & the 3rd forced into a car at gunpoint & taken to Wash. Park.
When I wrote to Gen, I mentioned we'd like to visit them next fall.
Guess I'll get back to my library book.
Will I be glad when elections are over. Benn watching Canadian news to escape our politics.
