The girls had Friday, the day after Halloween, off, as a teacher in-service day, for the first time. Seems like a good idea for the district to do so. Cora had a rehearsal for Our Town.
On Saturday, Stace and I went to the Finally Family Homes Bingo/Poker Night and auction. It was held at the Egg Plantation, a SClarita favorite. Our admission got us dinner and two drinks, so we got fancy cocktails.Colleen and Rigo joined us, and Stace won a bottle of wine at the end of the bingo rounds. At the silent auction, I "won" a great deal on carpet cleaning, from the company we normally use.
On Sunday, I worked on processing the two jack o' lanterns and came up with so much pumpkin for the freezer. We use it throughout the year in our favorite pumpkin chocolate-chip muffins.
With teens, I'm definitely not needed in the same ways I was when the girls were younger.

For lunch Sunday, I opened up a special can of real Heinz baked beans and made a Stacey favorite, beans on toast with English cheddar broiled on top.

But at times, they do still ask for my help.
