Happy TuTu Tuesday Peeps!!
I don't know about where you live but July brings the HEAT 🔥in Texas and the last few days we've been abundantly blessed with some rain (YAY!!) and some cooler temps. We know it'll come to an end soon but Lordy, we appreciate the heck out of it while it's here.
Let's jump back to dinner last Tuesday night. I had zero plans for dinner and Hubster was doing some yard work and he had mentioned how good the grilled cheese sandwich was we had a few weeks ago so we had some grilled cheese for dinner. Quick, easy and yummy! I used this incredible white American cheese that I picked up in the deli at Central Market. I even served them on the leftover paper plates we had for Fourth of July.
If you are looking for little Rouxby Sue, generally you just follow the snoring. She was tucked in behind the bathtub, if she didn't snore I'd have never found her!
While she took a little siesta, I got dressed on Wednesday like I was going somewhere. We had our video insurance inspection for the storm damage so maybe I thought I should wear something decent. haha
Ok, these shorts are oddly still available and this is my 3rd summer for having them. These are a size 6 and these shorts run small so even though the are too big, I keep them to wear around the house and because I don't have any other khaki shorts. The t-shirt is very old Daydreamer shirt, we have previously established my love of the Daydreamer t-shirts. For the record, I went nowhere.
We were still in a no cooking mood so we had leftovers again for dinner. I am unclear what Hubster had but I had some tomatoes that were nearing their time and I whipped up some tomato soup in the Vitamix and had that for dinner.
The rest of the soup just goes into a big quart jar in the refrigerator so we have fresh tomato soup anytime we like.
I have no pics at all from Thursday but my Nuuly ordered arrived and we made pizza's for dinner.
Friday, Friday and we had no plans but I put on some decent clothes after spending a little bit of time in the pool with Rouxby and by the picture, washed my hair! It was a banner day!
We did end up over at the neighbors Friday night and ordered catfish from Chicken Express for dinner.
Their catfish is always good and I'm a picky, picky person when it comes to catfish.
Saturday it seems little Rouxby Sue wanted to get some work done before heading out to the pool.
We had some pool time, ran to Costco, then went to dinner with the neighbors from last night to a little place called Tacos & Avocados. None of us had been there before and it was good. I had a birriadilla and they have the cutest area called The Backyard that we all said we wanted to come back and enjoy in the fall.
We had a little more pool time on Sunday then had to run to Lowe's and Target for a few things.I got those cute little mushroom overalls again in my Nuuly box so I wore those with an old plain white tee from Walmart, that's oddly still available, and my very old Birkenstocks. They are the Franca and mine are a rose pink color that's no longer available. I probably need to have those shoes resoled, they've seen a lot of miles!
Looks like I threw those same Gap shorts on with another one of my many Daydreamer t-shirts along with my uber comfy Croc sandals.
I failed to get a pic of dinner but we had Gyros from the Costco meal kit. Everything you need and it's really good. Hubster made gyro lettuce wraps today for lunch with the leftovers.
Yesterday was just a normal Monday, catching up on things like laundry and housework so I threw on my Wallyworld shorts and my Paducah, Ky Water of Life t-shirt. It's one of my favorite shirts, reminds me of home and it's so soft!
Last night I made a quick dinner of Lime Pepper Shrimp Scampi. We had one leftover hot dog bun and one leftover hamburger bun so I made garlic toast out of them. This is the easiest dinner to throw together, it's yummy and one of the reasons I always keep a bag of frozen shrimp in the freezer. I'm planning to do a recipe recap for you on this one too!
You always get Rouxby Sue pics but last night Reggie was giving me the stink eye about 9:30 and I couldn't stop laughing. He wanted his nightly yogurt treat so he could go to bed and he wasn't going to stop side eyeing me until I got up to get it.
We are heading out of town and I'm pushing washing my hair to the limits so I can do it before we leave and I gave Rouxby Sue a bath so I just plopped my hair on top of my head and called it good. I have on the black version of those Walmart shorts and my VERY old Fletcher's Corny Dog t-shirt which really only makes me long for State Fair days and a corn dog!
Ok, let's start the wrap up because I've got to work on my Nordstrom sale wish list so I can get my cart ready. The Icon level cardholders are shopping today so I'm checking their socials for items that I've missed and want to consider ordering. Ya girl isn't on that level at ALL so I don't get to shop until Thursday but I try to have everything I really want in my Wish List so I can move that to cart and get checked out lickety split!
Reading: I finished up Murder at the Grand Alpine Hotel by Lucy Foley. This one doesn't come out until September 22. I finally figured out that this is a continuation of the Miss Marple series and not a re-telling of one. I haven't read any Miss Marple yet, I'm still working my way through Hurcule Poirot but I rather enjoyed it. Lucy Foley would make Agatha Christie proud.
I'm now reading another ARC book, We Chase Shadows by Richard Osman. He's the guy who brought you Thursday Murder Club and this is the second in the We Solve Murders series. This one is out on September 15th and I'm really enjoying it although Rosie isn't quite as funny (yet) in this one but I'm holding out hope because Steve is funnier in his quirky way.
Watching: We have finished Dutton Ranch and The Bear. Dutton Ranch left us on a cliffhanger and The Bear, well it ended the series the only way it really could. I will say this wasn't my favorite season of the show but everything does get wrapped up nicely. It's still Christmas in July so I'm taping the new Christmas movies and occasionally watching some old favorites. We'll continue the Making the Team, Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders show now that we've finished those episodes. There's also the new season of Alone on and we're already watching it. I'm still waiting for some home alone time to get into my House of Dragons show.
And yes, I'm STILL listening to The Goldfinch....the never ending book!
Peace, Love, & Sunshine
