downright balmy

compared to the way it has been lately....59F on the early morning walk....warm foggy air is coming over from the gulf coast states.....I need to vacuum the carpet sometime soon.....and I think that around 2:30 this afternoon I'll put the ham in the oven with the ginger ale, so I can have something other than meatloaf for dinner.....with all that ham, I'll have to make scalloped potatoes some time.....and it is a bone-in ham, so I can keep the hambone with some meat on it to simmer with the black-eyed peas on the rapidly approaching New Year.....
