Morning Drizzle














I'm sitting here enjoying a cup of coffee and the quiet in the house. Hubby is still sleeping and the cat is quiet for the moment. She has started being very vocal to the point that we have to tell her to shut up at times. Chloe is laying up against my leg as I sit in the recliner with my feet up. All I can hear is the hum of the refrigerator right now. Ah, peace and quiet. It is supposed to rain today and was drizzling a little while ago. I so enjoyed the sun we had the last two days. So I can't really complain about the rain we'll get today. I noticed that I have about 20 crocus plants blooming under the new deck we had built last year. I transplanted the tulips that were under there but didn't think about the crocuses. I looks funny to see them struggling to find light from under that big structure.

Today we'll be having a get together with our church group and we are hosting it. We will be serving tri-tip roasts and hubby will be barbecuing them. Everyone will bring the rest of the meal pot luck style. Most of you may not know what a tri-tip is. I know when we've traveled to other states the stores don't have them and the butchers don't always know what part of the cow they are. I forgot myself but I just Googled it and it's from the bottom of the sirloin. It's very tender and there is only one on each side of beef. We are cooking 5 of them today. Well I guess it's time to get moving, the cat has started her song again...............

It sounds like a lovely day, in spite of the drizzle!
I haven't had tri-tip in years, so you've got my mouth watering right now! Hope you have a wonderful time today!

Your church group is filled with some mighty lucky people having a dinner like that one. I hope you enjoy the company of some good friends. We don't have rain, but it has been chilly and cloudy all day here. 'On Ya'-ma
