We had our tree trimming guy over yesterday (he's a neighbor). He's suppose to come Wednesday, and do some major work on one of our trees.

Thursday, the pool people are coming to put in the new lighting system. Not only is it LED lighting, which will save us a bundle in energy costs, but the lights can change colors.

When my grandson found out the pool lights could change colors, he asked grandpa to turn them red, on the first night. Why? Well, he has a remote control shark that works in the water. He wants to put that in there, and a few Barbie dolls. With the red lights, it will look like blood. He's staging his own shark attack in our pool. Yes, we have to take pictures.

I've had a lot of needles go through me but no piercings. Those were to close holes not make em. I do have that 1 tattoo though, and lots of pretty little scars.

Scars don't count. Was going to get ears pierced for my 50th birthday, but just didn't.

Sounds great. I've haven't had a waffle in a long time. The last time I stayed in a hotel they had the hot breakfast shut down due to covid. Ahh. You could open the door and get a box of cereal, a muffin, etc.... but not a laddel for waffle batter.

Getcha a little round waffle iron, then mix this together..
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup of corn starch (makes 'em cripsy)
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda and salt (each)
1 1/2 cups buttermilk and 1/2 cup of milk
6 Tbsp oil (I use light olive oil, wonder what Popeye thinks of that)
1/2 tsp vaniller ( I also add 1 tablespoon of cinnamon)
2 L eggs (have any of those by chance?)
3 Tbsp sugar.

Mix it all up, dump some on the waffle iron, and presto chango... One hot waffle. And if you are really clever you can have the sunny side ups done right after the butter and surple go one the waffle.
