Over the Top and A Bee in my Bowl

 As I was sitting and waiting for Tommy to come out of Belk's, I saw an over-the-top outfit on a guy. It really was quite impressive. He had on brown kilt, leopard print dress jacket, leopard print tie, leopard print leggings or something. Yet one leg was wrapped, I think. That leg covering was white and he had on white shoes that looked like Italian leather style. The other shoe on the foot with the leopard legging was a leopard print shoe. His tie was leopard print and the shirt was brown. He had a leopard print fedora. THEN, 40 feet from the Belk door, he pulled out a leopard print parasol/umbrella. I was impressed. Seriously, it was sharp if not unconventional. 

I was especially impressed that every iteration of leopard print was an identical print. He had not just put together this outfit from different prints that were almost alike. The prints and fabrics were identical. 

I really wanted a picture, but I was on the phone and could not get off to get the shot. When Tommy came back, I told him I wanted to wait until the guy came out so he could see and I could get a picture. He said, "Okay." I was shocked when he put the car back in park. He was going to indulge me, plus, he was interested. He has a kilt. 

When I was unboxing the rice bowls, I winced, sucking in my breath a bit and dropping a bowl back into the padded box. There was a honeybee in one of the bowls. I was looking more carefully and realized it was a pattern on the bowl. Cute! However, the other three bowls in the packing box had no bee. I was disappointed and checked to see if I missed the others. No, nothing except for on the one bowl. Since I had a box of three ad a box of four, I went on to the next box. Only one of the four bowls had a bee. Interesting. 

Since it is Saturday, there is football. UGH! But, he enjoys it. Okay, we had a good laugh, but that is another story. I will relate that another day.

Fruit on the Bottom yogurt has always been a favorite of mine, especially blueberry. Since I cooked the five pounds of frozen blueberries, I have enjoyed yogurt and blueberries often. I never had the bought blueberry yogurt often because it was too expensive. I buy a quart of Daisy Yogurt and mix them for a nutritious treat and cheaper than the bought combination. 

Do you eat your yogurt of choice with fruit to taste like the fruit on the bottom or mixed fruit yogurt? 

Have you ever seen a leopard print kilt outfit?

A bee in your bowl? Would you wince a bit?

Halloween

 

This was on my Halloween treat table outdoors one year. I took this picture and won third place in the fair competition.

We did nothing all day except laundry. Tommy did two loads for himself and one for me. So, now I have panties to hang and towels to fold. He washes all his together, no separate loads. But, he had a sheet to wash. 

I only had cereal for a very late breakfast. However, I was not hungry the rest of the day. Sometimes, I just don't get hungry and sometimes I am famished. 

We went about 5:15 to the grocery for Tommy to get bread and bananas. It is fun to sit outside Publix and watch the children in their costumes, proud-looking, perky, looking very happy. I took a picture of my favorite employee in his very fancy kilt and jacket and knee socks. I had him go back in and show Tommy, telling him he was Scottish, too, and has a kilt. Then, Tommy took my camera back in and got a picture. 

So, that is our Halloween! Boo!

We retrieved a pink bag with ads and barely got home before dark. I don't like to be out with children about. I certainly don't want Tommy driving around children going from door to door. 

Tommy was supposed to get Brach's Candy Corn for me, but he said there w as no Brach's and no candy corn. So, he brought me Lindt Lindor Chocolate Truffles. Of course, I love chocolate and did not object. But, I wanted candy corn. Maybe tomorrow, I might catch some on sale. Maybe I should stay out of the stores. But, I have two returns I want to get rid of right now. 

I suppose if I complain enough, Amazon drivers will put packages where we can reach them. There was a package at the left of the door, like I have requested many times. Occasionally, I purchase a Oui yogurt. Now, I have lids to make them reusable for leftovers or whatever. 

Tonight, dinner will be leftovers--sweet potatoes, pork loin, potatoes, and carrots. No, we are not really having two potatoes and two orange vegetables. Tommy will choose what he wants. 

The weather is great--66F and dry at 7 pm. However, we saw no children out earlier or at almost dark. So, I wonder if all children are going to church or school sponsored carnivals or trunk or treat events. 

My children were wild about school carnivals. Daughter and I loved Bingo. Son hated Bingo because he said he never won. However, he won 7 cakes in the cakewalk. We gave most of them away before we left the building. I think we kept two. Littlest, a daughter, just stayed close to Mama. 

This is the second post I have posted today. Tonight, we are watching Bride of Frankenstein, Son of Frankenstein, and Frankenstein.
