We had a good time at the festival. Every town in Texas has a fall festival and they all pick a different theme. Henderson really has it going on, they hearken back to yesteryear and crush sugar cane with a mule operated mill, feeding the canes in on one side and drawing the flattened canes out on the other side. Another person mans the barrel where the juice is collected, skimming off the foam. Then there is the cooking vat, wood fired, where they cook it down into syrup. We bought 2 cans. I', going to make pecan pies. All over the downtown area was old equipment, there was an old tractor show, antique car show and lots of food vendors.

Fresh pot is on the counter. Have at it.
Thanks. The grands just left, age 1,2 and 10. The 10 year old brought a friend. The 1 year old is cutting teeth, ran a fever, felt lousy and I was either holding her or feeding her, she was grouchy! Supper was a bowl of cocoa puffs. I'll take that cup of coffee!

You've sure had your hands full for sure! You deserve that coffee.
Those festivals are fun. My grandparents still made cane sugar when Dad was growing up.

Babies are for young people. They wear me out. Coffee is fresh brewed.

I'm thinking about making homemade peanut butter cookies with peanut butter chips and two different batches of chocolate chip cookies (1 batch with regular chocolate chips and the other with white chocolate chips) tomorrow night.

You'd arm wrestle an old man ? You lose either way. If you beat me, shame on you. If I beat you, shame on you. :old

C'mon, 'Al', just grab and guzzle.

Okay, talked me into it. I'm heating the oven for oatmeal/raisin cookies.
