At Last
Our McDonald’s has opened their interior several weeks ago. At last, today Dennis and his buds are back on track to get together for the Tuesday morning session. Many of them had drug card tables and lawn chairs to the parking lot over the extended covid shut down. That was not up Dennis’ alley. Good for him. He was not that desperate to being social.
While Dennis was out with his coffee group, I was in the studio. Small steps make the project doable. Miters are sewn down and all the raw seams, via the overlocking foot and stitch are secure. There would be nothing more miserable than laundering a tablecloth and having seams wanting to ravel. The last step and that may be happening tomorrow is hemming the project. I will be using my Best Press in preparation before stitching. Best Press is a light starch and will help prevent any stretching. We surely do not want a hem that has a ruffle look.
At last, we got haircuts today. Being tipped back in the chair was not on the agenda before now. I am not sure who’s haircut is shorter . . . mine or Dennis’. It matters not right now. Ease of managing in the hot weather is of prime importance. A week later new growth will be showing.
We are having a Chicken Ruben oven meal today. Cubed raw chicken breast meat in the sprayed bottom of an oven dish. Sprinkle with poultry seasoning. Spread one can of drained sauerkraut on top of the chicken. Lightly cover the kraut with 1,000 Island dressing. Bake for 45 minutes at 350 degree. Remove and cover the top of the dish with Baby Swiss Cheese, the kind with the holes. Return to the oven for an additional 15 minutes. It’s been a long time since I have fixed this and yes . . . I am running out of ideas that really trip Dennis’ taste buds. Fixing this is more appealing to me than eating out or soup.
I pray that wherever you are, that if nothing else, not in the sun and air moving about you.
