We woke this morning to thunder and rain. I ran over to Kroger this morning for our Easter ham as well as misc groceries. Around 11 we left for Ed Lyons house in the country for our Violet Club meeting. We had no trouble finding Ed's place off of 1010 past 401 in the country. It was still lightly raining. First we had a nice lunch of salad and lasagna out on his back porch which was just installed. Sheila brought her PH kit which we used to test violet potting soils. Libbie's was acidic at 5.0, Ed's was also acidic. We brought a plant of David Dicks which tested perfectly at 6.5. A sample of potting soil by Martha also tested perfectly at 6.5 Kroger called later in the day that my prescription was found in a shopping cart. I had neglected to empty the cart while loading my car with the groceries. We had Ed's leftover Lasagna for dinner. Afterwards I listened to Butterfly live from the Met. It's significantly colder this evening as the rain for the day tapers.
