Good Morning, Y'all. Happy St. Patrick's Day! I'm hearing a new sound outside my window, but I haven't been able to attach it to a particular bird yet. Whatever it is, it's very vocal and insistent, even though I've already fed them, and there's plenty of seeds left. Perhaps it's hungry for something else, or maybe babies are being born? Is it too soon for that? I went to bed early last night, but was awoken around 11pm when someone who had no good reason to wake me up called. Ugh. I have a little corned beef for later, and will cook up some potatoes and carrots to go with the meat. It's another take it easy day, still recuperating from the yard work the other day. Hope everyone has a lovely day, the sun just broke through the clouds here .
Good mid morning everyone! Since it's St. Patrick's Day I guess I will be making green pancakes for my grandchildren's after school snack today! @Tom Locke. So happy to hear you came back from the Dentist with all your teeth. Whatever your all doing today...may your day be blessed in every way! Green is my favorite color...how nice to have so much of it in my morning post.
Yum, those look delicious @Babs Hunt. Are you going to flavor them as well, or just use green food coloring? Green is also one of my favorite colors. I have a difficult time limiting anything to just one, so I have several favorites. I've been meaning to make pancakes, but it never occurred to me to make them green. I'm sure your grandchildren will love them!
No flavor this time...children are so picky sometimes...it's best to take one step at a time with them. I'm going to make them these around Easter time. My grandkids all love pancakes anytime of the day and they love their Granny Barbara to make them for them.
The bunny one is cute, I'll be at daughter's for Easter and the grandsons there are too old for the cute bunny.
Morning everyone Its Friday We had quite a bit of rain yesterday so I'm excited ..Garage sale tomorrow ,so I may not catch up for morning hello for a couple of days
Kate, not a boot sale, I think that's UK. In the US , some parts of the country call it garage sale and yard sale. I think only my part of the country calls them "tag sales" as well. silly.
We call them garage sales or yard sales, Kate. Think the English call them Boot but it could be what we call a flea market. Holly will have to answer. @Ruby Begonia , I've never heard Tag sale. Whatever they are called...going to them is fun, having them is not! Good luck, @Kate Ellery!
*boot sales* in the uk are literally that...junk (quality items) you sell out of the 'boot' (trunk) of your car...usually a weekend thing where everyone goes to a local park, or a hard standing area.. and sells all their junk from trestle tables Garage sales haven't caught on here because generally most front lawns are way too small to hold any kind of household item sale on them..
Ok, so a boot sale is a flea market here. Not out of your car usually, think you have to rent a table. Garage sales are mostly in the driveway, here anyway, in front of your garage.
Yes Car Boot sales in the UK are not usually out of the car boot/trunk itself you rent or provide your own table.
Good morning from a cool Friday in Worcester at just on freezing point, this cool weather seems to be with us for a while. I will do a food shop today and some tidying up around the house. Have a good pain free day.
Well it kinda is out of the car because you have to have your car right there at the table that's holding your stuff for sale...like this... Car Boot Sale Sometimes they'll call it an indoor car boot sale where you sell directly from a rented trestle table, rather than from the boot of the car... but it's only a new name for what was once called a Jumble sale...
