Oui



Some mornings it is coffee before the sunrises. I re-light the woodstove while it is brewing. Then I settle in to watch the surise.
Husband will only eat this brand of yogurt.
So I got covers for some of them for small storage usage. 
I made pumpkin bread to have with our morning coffee. It is King Arthur Flour's easy pumpkin bread.

Husband gets a medicine mailed to him that is in ice packs. But after you can use it to fertilize your plants.



Husband is working on a puzzle of beach umbrellas! Crazy!
   He is feeling better every day.
Wednesday night I am taking a class on mahjong. I know zero about it so let's see if I can grasp it. 
  Have a great week!

I'm so happy to hear your hubby is doing better.
I love that yogurt too and didn't know you could get those covers. The little jars are so cute!

I never would have thought to look on Amazon for lids for the Oui yogurt!
So cool about the ice packs then used for plant food.
Happy hubby is feeling better each day. Sorry about your beloved Patriots!

One of our neighbors gets a similar freezer pack with her medication and uses it happily on her vegetable beds. Clever idea.

Ha ha.... Oui was my husband's absolute favorite as well...he'd have at least one a day so I have accumulated quite the collection. I've gotten both the wooden and plastic lids and have had fun doing little stitched tops, etc. for them. Those fertilizer ice packs are cool. Before my infusions, I was on Humira and it, too, was delivered in coolers with ice packs. I recycled them at the pharmacy at the medial center when I went. (Of course I kept some of the ice packs for personal use.) Have fun at your class! I know nothing about mahjong.

I have never seen the plant food gel. Interesting.

Glad your husband is felling better. I use to do puzzles. Maybe when I am retired will do them again. Janice

Oh my, we have to do the same as your husband is doing. Magnify glass and bright light/lamp over the puzzle table. Glad he is doing better.

Marcia said...

The only mahjong I know is on the computer.
I will have to look for that yogurt.

Great news about hubby! We have a puzzle with flowers. Oh I can’t wait for spring.

So glad hubby is feeling better! I just finished a puzzle that I'll blog about. I'm not usually a puzzler but the weather has made puzzling a priority! Ha! Looks like yummy bread for breakfast and a peaceful start to the day. Enjoy your class and I hope you let us know how it goes!

I’ve not tried that brand of yogurt, but I love the terrific glass containers, and that you can find lids for them! The twinkle lights in the coffee station are so pretty - a soft glow to wake up to on a cold morning. And that bread wouldn’t last long here!

Jeanie said...

I'm doing one of those puzzles that make you crazy too. (Well, it didn't -- then I got to the hard part!) So I wish your husband good luck with the umbrellas and glad to hear he's on the mend. I have never seen that yogurt -- I'll have to check it out.

It sounds like a cozy and productive week at home. Watching the sunrise with a fresh cup of coffee and some pumpkin bread sounds like a wonderful way to start the day. I hope your husband continues to feel better, and good luck with your mahjong class, it’s always fun to learn something new.

I learned how to play American mah jongg at sessions taught at the library here and continue to play at the senior center we belong too, but not as regularly as others. I enjoy the game but admittedly it can be confusing. Also, there is the annual purchase of the card with the game combinations. Friends recently introduced us to Chinese mah jongg, no card, and plays like a game of rummy. Like your husband, I am also working on jigsaws but less successfully.

Ice packs that double as plant fertilizer!! Who knew???
Pumpkin bread sounds like a good idea 🧡

I LOVE that that can be used in the garden. Brilliant!
