Exciting day yesterday.. laundry, vacuuming, mopping. Trouble with winter and rain, it muddies up the dog and cat feet and they track it in!
 
I had ordered Valentine's Day "goodies" from Popcorn Factory for Brian and family and Kristen and family. I ordered a small one for me too! OINK. Only, the FedEx guy couldn't get the gate open. Duh. Anyway, got a call from neighbor Gerard and he said he was down close to my gate and told the delivery guy he'd make sure I got the package. (Strange he would just hand it to him, not even knowing who Gerard was!) Anyway yesterday morning Maria, Gerard's wife, brought the package.

Candies, cookies, and popcorn flavors... They use non-GMO kernels and they are whole grain corn grown in the Midwest. They use real butter, real cheese and real caramel. They have been doing this for over 35 years. Check their site out...    www.popcornfactory.com  OMGOSH, and are those cookies GOOD!!!!

Dude greeted Maria and then she left, heading back for her walk...

Bruiser sat on the hippo watching her....

 
Dinner was chair, wine, and leftover pizza! Then it was Chicago PD and Chicago Med. A couple phone conversations with pals and nighty night! We'll see what excitement today brings. Have a good one!
 
 
All I know. Nuff said. Happy TBT. Ciao.
