I think I need to replace my sewing threads. Most, if not all, are over 10 years old. I'm not nuts in that they should be tossed rather than used, right? 

By the by, I did find a nice ancient man here who tuned up my sewing machine for $69.95.  He said it's a good machine and it's mostly metal innards. :)

Tonight, I made homemade salsa using a half-dozen of my homegrown tomatoes. It was a little heavy on the red onion, but otherwise quite tasty.

To accompany the salsa, we had grilled chicken (marinated in Penzey's fajita seasoning, lime juice, and a bit of corn oil), tortillas, cheese, and rice.   Every one ate well, which is always a nice surprise with two small kids.  The kids are cheese lovers, just like Tom.

Now that the kids are asleep, we're watching A Prairie Home Companion that's been sitting on the TiVo for the last two months. We haven't dallied due to a lack of interest. It's because the mood hasn't been right. Tonight, it is.
