10/6/17...Made dinner and had Dennis and Amy and Dennis Watkins over for dinner and cards.

Bill, Amy, Dennis and Dennis Watkins

Browned the round steak and then got it going in the crockpot for tonight's dinner.  Peeled some potatoes and then had to leave to go meet Kim R. at Art Van's with Bill to pick up a chair she bought for her hubby's birthday.  He needs kidney transplants and has been feeling down so she wanted to cheer him up.  We picked up the chair with her and then took it to her house.  She lives just around the corner from us.  Her husband pulled in right before we did.  I went in the house to let her know we were here.  She thought we could get it in the house before Mark got back from Dialysis, but we didn't make it.  We all got it in and Mark tried it out.  He sure was happy.  

We visited for a few minutes.  Kim gave us some yummy cookies and candy she made.  She is always blessing people with her homemade goodies.  We stopped a couple of houses up the road at an estate sale.  This guy was a harder....there was so much junk piled up it was unbelievable.  We could hardly walk through the shed.  Bill found a Billy Goat Chipper Vacuum though.  He got an amazing deal on it so that was good.  He also bought some shelving for our attic.  I didn't want to go through the big barn because I had stuff to get ready for tonight's dinner.  He took me home and got the checkbook and went back and paid for the stuff he bought.  I baked an caramel apple dessert and finished peeling the potatoes.  Baked rolls too!  Everybody got here at 6 and we ate.  We had round steak in cream of chicken soup, mashed potatoes, corn from the garden, homemade applesauce, rolls and a salad.  We played cards after that.  Played a game called horsetails.  It was fun.  We had our dessert after that.  Had so much fun with these great friends.
