Yesterday in my brief stop at the supermarket for half a dozen essentials, I caught sight of a display of breads on sale and made an impulse buy of something I used to keep around on occasion, but haven't in at least a couple of decades:  a package of cinnamon raisin bread.

Now doesn't that sound exciting? I know how to live on the edge, don't I? They don't call me Thrill Seeker for nothing.

Anyway, I love that kind of thing but hadn't bothered indulging in years. Just had a slice, toasted, with butter, and YUM.

Cinnamon raisin bread also makes good french toast.

Good morning.

We got our car back and it's looking good. The invoice for the hail damage ended up being $20,000.

WOW!  Vibes you or your car never get caught in a hailstorm again!

[John G.]

There will be more CDs.

Yay! I don’t have enough.

[Jane]

It seemed strange to be home from the gym and market by 11:00.

[Laura]

We had very few Trick-or-Treaters last night, which made me very sad. The pandemic year when no one had shots was the best Halloween. So many people were out in the neighborhood, and I got to see so many of my neighbors.

[Jane]

DR John I enjoyed reading your comments about Barbie.

[Laura]

I didn't really buy much candy for yesterday. And there's a lot left over. I made sugar cookies, and there were quite a few left over.

[Laura]

The good news (I guess), was that I left the stuff on the table at the end of the driveway after I put away the decorations. I went out a few minutes later to see a group of teens walking a few houses down. I guess they took everything, including the plastic pumpkin.

[Laura]

I guess it's better they eat it than have it here where I'd eat it.

[Laura]

I had some baby and toddler trinkets left that my grandson has outgrown. So I gave out a couple of baby board books and rubber duckies to the littlest ones.

That's nice, DR Laura.

Our car is just a tiny (very tiny) Nissan Rogue (SUV). Good question why they didn't rule it a total loss. Honestly, although there were a lot of dents, it still drove just fine.

True, but really, they took the pumpkin

That was a clever idea.

[singdaw]

I feel like I could hand out a few of these.    [click to embiggen]

Back from check cashing (three minutes, in and out) and putting gas in the motor - complete luck out - I pulled in and they were JUST finishing lowering the price by twenty cents. I waited until that was done then filled her up.

Is that better or worse than taking the cake?

Congrats on the timing for filling your gas tank.

Since our morning began earlier than usual, our afternoon walk was also an hour earlier.

[Jane]

Lucky for us as we missed the rain.

Glad to hear last night's rehearsal went well and things are looking more positive.

Ditto!!

[George]

I have a few leftovers from last night.

Oh, my!  That looks like it took some time to make.

I can't believe it took me all six tries!

Worried about the poor dog next door I reminded them of how loud and scary the sound is.  They have taken the dog away for the morning

Good!
