Hurricane Helene 2024 in Jacksonville, FL

Thursday, September 26

Today is the landfall of Hurricane Helene. Gratefully, we are not in the path of the hurricane. We will be under a Tropical Storm Warning. Wind, moderate rainfall, flooding, and tornados. Schools are closed today and tomorrow.

Even though it is not a crazy storm day for us, it is still fun to have some special things for the day. I got apple cider donuts to enjoy today. For dinner, I will make sausage and rice stuffed pumpkins. I also have a loaf of sourdough to throw in the oven for fresh bread. :). Yummy food and drink always help make special memories when events happen.

Since the weather wasn't doing much in the morning, I took the Jeep for an oil change I had scheduled and a tire rotation. I at least checked that off my to-do list. Eric went to work as normal and the girls did their school day.

I also stopped by CVS to use my extra bucks, which were set to expire. I bought two more packages of Scott's toilet paper and that earned me $10 EB more. :)

American Heritage Girls was canceled for the day because of the storm.

The wind did pick up and we got around an inch of rain through the night. Our power did not go out and just a few of the fence boards came down. Easily fixed.

Praying for all the families that have suffered so much loss through this storm.

Happy 45th Birthday, Eric!

Happy birthday to my husband, Eric! He turns 45 today. I am surprising him with tickets to a Miami Dolphins game in Miami. I got him tickets one other time years ago when we lived in Reno. We drove to Oakland to see the Dolphins play the Raiders. I think this will be a great memory for him and a home game too! Happy birthday, babe!

Recipe: Chicken Parmesan

Chicken Parmesan This is a delicious recipe from Magnolia Table: Volume 2. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 1/4 tsp. kosher salt 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 2 large eggs 1 tsp. garlic salt 1 sleeve (30-40) buttery crackers, crushed 4 oz. Parmesan cheese, grated (about 1 cup) 2 tbsp. olive oil 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice 1/2 cup mayo 1 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley (optional) Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. (I cut the chicken breasts in half to make thinner.). Season with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and garlic salt until combined.
