Scrambled Eggs for a Crowd
Our church was feeding the Packer football team one Friday morning and we needed to cook at lot of eggs. So I wanted to experiment with baked scrambled eggs. Since B does an excellent job of cracking eggs ...
Turned out great. The eggs were nice and fluffy. The next morning I baked about 12 dozen in the oven at church and we scrambled another 12 dozen on top of the stove. 288 eggs for 140+ people. ( with sausage, ham, grits, toast, biscuits, and breakfast casserole).
The Pack eats together every game day at a different church. It is a nice tradition. And yes, they did win that night.
he cracked them all , added the milk, butter, salt, and pepper. I poured the mixture into a greased baking dish and baked for about 25 - 30 minutes. Stirring every 10 minutes.

The Last Friday of Summer
School has started ............ football season is well underway........
Labor Day is only a memory.............
but today was the last Friday of summer.
What better day to enjoy a cookout ...........................
.................... with friends and family .....................
at the (Jimpa's) State Park .
Boiled peanuts ...........
..........and S' mores.
And ginersnaps.
It may have been the lady in the last week-end of summer white pants. Good times!
Duck, Duck, ........................
..... and more DUCKS!
When the family down-the- lane was vacationing in August I fed their ducks. The ducks were still young and had not been living at the pond too long. They were just learning to fend for themselves and they really looked forward to their evening meal.
One day I was a little late and they were coming up from the pond to meet me.
Wibbel, wobble, wibbel, wobble, to and fro..............................
............ and , believe me.............. there were a lot of "Quack! Quack! Quacks!"
Obviously, I just made it before they ALL DIED of starvation!
Now, just a few weeks later they don't even come up to eat their food. They grow up so quickly.

My Best Crop
This spring I moved my raised tomato bed ............
and planted zinnias where the raised bed was last year.
The bed had been filled with good soil .......
and zinnias obviously love sun and just enough water.
They are leggy and have bug eaten leaves now ............
but we have enjoyed many baskets and ......
............. and vases of cut flowers all summer.
I plan to move the raised bed again ...... looking for a little less "full sun" for my tomatoes ......................
and since Jimmy said he used to have to pick the last zinnias for his mom and save the seeds.....
... or maybe Bennett will gather the seeds for me........
