Mary offered me anything I would like for breakfast! Is this my last meal??<\/p><\/div>\n

I was up at 6:36 am, and Mary was up about twenty minutes later.\u00a0 We had our coffee in the office, and Mary did a final check on our website that has our recent trip to the East Coast<\/a><\/strong>.\u00a0 She also proofed my Daily Dairy from last night.<\/p>\n

It must be Fall as Alexa announced it would only be 75 degrees today; it’s time to wrap up in a bankey and watch TV by the fireplace.<\/p>\n

I made my “last meal” selection: Tacos from Del Taco for lunch.\u00a0 I could live like every day is Taco Tuesday! Later in the day, Mary will prepare turkey legs for an early dinner.\u00a0 \u00a0 I can’t eat anything after 9:00 pm because of tomorrow’s surgery.<\/p>\n

Mary had a real breakfast while I gorged on three hard-shelled tacos with the El Diablo hot sauce! What do you call a semi-aquatic reptile that loves Mexican food? A tacodile!<\/p>\n

\"\"

Taco’s for my last meal?<\/p><\/div>\n

From Del Taco, we went VFR to Ralph’s Market for a quart of milk.\u00a0 Oh my, we ended up with a load of groceries.\u00a0 It took us four trips from the trunk to the kitchen.<\/p>\n

I had one job: writing expiration dates on all the incoming goodies. I guess you could say I had a ‘good’ job! But I had to be quick, or else the goodies would go wrong while I was still writing!<\/p>\n

\"\"

We carefully crammed all the goodies into the frig after removing the science projects and other food green colors (that were not vegetables).<\/p><\/div>\n

At 2:00 pm, Mary began fixing dinner, peeling onions and bell peppers for the turkey legs.\u00a0 \u00a0These puppies were nice and big and were ready for cooking.\u00a0 They must have belonged to a 100-pound bird!\u00a0 Perhaps they were mislabeled and it was really a turka-saurus ot a thunder lizard?<\/p>\n

\"\"

The onions and bell peppers will be amazing after cooking with the birdie legs!<\/p><\/div>\n

Mary put them in the oven for an hour at 350 F covered, then for 30 minutes covered with the veggies added, and finally for 30 minutes with the foil removed!<\/p>\n

\"\"

Mama made the most incredible turkey legs! They turned brown after the cover was removed.<\/p><\/div>\n

Meanwhile, we set up and activated our new air fryer from Amazon.\u00a0 We have an Emeril Lagasse 26 QT extra large air fryer and a convection toaster oven with French doors, all in excellent stainless steel.\u00a0 It fits perfectly in the corner of the kitchen!<\/p>\n

\"\"

Our new air fryer+<\/p><\/div>\n

The advertisement looks better!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The turkey legs were made in the conventional over THIS TIME.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Perfect!!!<\/p><\/div>\n

Mary also made some freshly picked green beans that were amazing.<\/p>\n

The potatoes came from the new air fryer at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, and we were ready to eat.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Tummies became full quickly!!<\/p><\/div>\n

We made extra turkey legs for Dianne and Jeff and took the legs to Jeff before hitting the sack.<\/p>\n

Irene is coming to be with Mary tomorrow and will be here at 5:30 am.\u00a0 She is such a great friend!\u00a0 Besides, Scout will be pleased; Irene is his new best friend!!<\/p>\n

I may have a short daily diary entry tomorrow because of the operation, but\u00a0 I’ll be there!<\/p>\n
