Wednesday I had my first day back to work and Ralph went to work after staying home sick on Tuesday. He came home sick on Monday after he had worked the day. We think he got sick from swimming on Saturday at the gym. He had those pool symptoms and the pools been closed since then.
This is Ralph's birthday "cake". I raced home from work and made raised donuts. I usually only make them about once a year. I also made two batches of toffee because the first batch was a huge failure.
After dinner we were supposed to go swimming and to a movie. Well the weather wasn't swim weather and the movie selection was marginal so we went to plan B.
We went to a Fast Track and drove cars around for 15 min. The fastest time for a lap for the day was 45:25 and my fastest time was 50:36. Ralph's fastest time was 51:32. I guess we need some practice. It was fun sliding around corners and seeing how fast I could go. I decided to lap Ralph, so I really had to push on the pedal. After I lapped him, I had a hard time losing him.
When we got in the car to go home I realized I had dizzy sickness or car sickness. It went away after awhile. I guess I'm not going to be the next Danica Patrick!
Tuesday I bottled 5 quarts of tomato juice and made 21 bags of corn. It's nice when the garden produces so we can save some for the future. All we have for dinner is corn on the cob, tomatoes, cucumbers, and some type of meat. That's easy to fix.
