Just a Quickie From the Swamp

Busy week of errands and appointments, not much down time.  Some rain, but mostly mild, lots of 70's for the new week, that makes me happy.  Mac is busy painting, sold so many paintings lately he's had to restock.
We bought a milkshake machine and made strawberry milkshakes last night, they were so good.
Going to fix bacon, corn chowder soup today, need to use up some bacon.
They're rerunning the Super Bowl today and now that we know who won it we can watch and enjoy it.
Reading a wonderful book  Three Daughters of Eve by Elif Shafak about a Muslim girl in Istanbul who goes to Oxford and where she becomes friends with a very divergent group of friends and takes a course about God who she has been struggling with most of her life..  It was recommended by Marianne at Let's Read and I'm so glad, will definitely make my best list this year.
Not much in the way to tv watching, just the Pro-Am Golf Tournament from Pebble Beach California.  Like to keep track of Bill Murray's antics.
That's about it from the swamp.

  1. Not much here in Tucson either. Still trying to work on Studio and expanding the side yard. All I seem to be doing is tossing stuff out and "trying" to figure what to save and where to put it. What a mess.
    Good news about Mac's paintings !

    cheers, parsnip and mandibles

  2. I am intrigued by the milkshake machine, I didn't know such a thing existed. It would be popular in my house, that I know. Have a good weekend. x

  4. I have never come across a milkshake machine either. Strawberry milkshake would go down well right now.

  5. If this is your first time watching this super bowl, you are in for a great game.

  6. Don't forget, the Olympics are on. We watched a bit this afternoon. Can't imagine flying down that chute on a luge at the speeds they go!

  8. Great to be able to make your own milkshakes. Not much happening here either, it is such a quiet time of year:)

  9. I didn't know there were milkshake machines for households. Wondering if we have them in the UK.

    1. I got it at Amazon, the spindle's a bit small, but gets the job done.

  12. Funny you should mention Bill Murray's antics - I just got done watching "St. Vincent" on Netflix this afternoon. Did you know that he and his brothers own "Murray Brothers Caddyshack Restaurant" in St. Augustine? My husband wanted to eat lunch there one time coming home from South Carolina. We saw one of his brothers there, but missed Bill Murray himself - he was at that restaurant the night before, singing. Talk about bad timing!
