It's Raining

Rain hitting the roof is a wonderful sound...one I'm enjoying as I type this. Yesterday we received nearly .10 inch of rain. It almost settled the dust. We are really dry here. Today they put us under a 'no burn notice'....absolutely no burning of any kind.

Isn't the rescue of the miners in Chile great news! We watched some of it. Saw the last one brought up. I can't imagine what it would be like to be underground that long. Just pray they'll all recover totally from their ordeal.

Speaking of things hitting the roof. We have several oak trees close to the house and quite frequently hear acorns hit the roof this time of year. It amazes me how loud it sounds on the roof, then it rolls off onto the deck with a little 'ping'.

Today I finally did the bread I was planning to do yesterday that didn't happen. I made 2 batches of bread into 32 hamburger buns. We had a couple for supper tonight...pretty tasty...without hamburgers. I had made soup and that fresh bread just seemed ideal to go with it. It was good.

  1. I LOVE home made soup. I froze some of the last pot a couple of weeks ago and had it yesterday. NUMMY. I haven't made bread for awhile. You may have helped me with the impetus to make some.

    Your dry is like ours was 3 years ago.

  3. Love that homemade bread and homemade soup and the rain on the roof. They just go together. I hope those miners do well. I remember those big acorns we had, sounding so loud on the roof.
