Here's to Monday!!
It's the start of another week of the new year.
Today I felt like posting some random, hither and thither thoughts that have no rhyme or reason .... other than I just felt like it .... 👀😏😜
What to do with leftover ham?
Why make a pot pie for dinner ... we have been battling colds and general yuckiness so I wanted something simple that would work for several meals.
When I went to make it I found I only had one tube of crescent rolls in the fridge. That will only make the bottom crust of the pie. What to do?
I made my mix of meat, gravy and veggies and spread it in the pan... got out my frozen Tater Tots and sprinkled them on top and Wah-la..my "pie" was ready. It was so yummy and only took minutes to bake.
Easy Peasy... my kind of meal.
So Good !
At last we have sold a few more things on eBay.
The first was a faux fur hat to a lovely lady in Wisconsin, just in time for their Freeze.
Next is an Awaji pottery Japanese vase. We think this was acquired by Dave's folks when they were stationed in Hawaii in the 1930's. The vase has a bamboo wrap and the iconic colors of that era. Its not my style and so we are glad it is going to someone who will enjoy it. It is out of our storage so its a win/win for everyone.
And a last random thought for today.
I saw this sign many, many years ago when we were working a Trade Show in New Orleans. It intrigued me , so I snapped it for posterity.

Do you know what 61means? The hat is gorgeous!!!
I adore 'this and that' posts!
Your impromptu pot pie looks delicious -- way to improvise. Must confess, I had to Google 61 Highway; I'd sure pause to admire 'art' like that.
The 61 highway is known as the Blues Highway, stretches 1400 miles from New Orleans to Wyoming, Minnesota. Constructed in 1926 The highway is famous for its connection to blues history and the Great Migration.
A lyrical symbol for travel in blues music. A major route for blues artists moving north..... Wikipedia
What a fun "radom" post. Loved all of it. How great to sell a couple more of your items. You are so creative with your "Pot Pie" A new recipe called "Sue's potato tot pot pie" Looks yummy and perfect for a cool winter night. Hope Dave is doing better. Did you get him to the doctor?
my entire blog is random stuff, you know I love random. pop in the head random and out my typing fingers. the pie sounds delish, for my other life. if I ate it now, I would have to take my pillow in the bathroom. ha ha.. how is that for random thought. I have never heard of 62 highway and am glad you explained it in comments... its a neat sign

I like your random thoughts!
That ham pie looks good and hooray for selling a few things.
I had to check out 61 highway, I like the sign.
I liked this today.
I hope you two start to feel better soon.
I never would have thought about Tator tots. lol But why not?
I didn't know about Hwy 61 until I read about it on your post here.
Never thought about the leftover smoked ham for a pot pie. Bet that was good! We're going to give ours (it's frozen) to an elderly neighbor. I get real tired of it after one meal. I just don't seem to care for ham much anymore.
Nice hat. Bet it's warm. And I like the Japanese vase. Very pretty.
Interesting sign. Guess I'm slow (nothing new - haha) 'cause I don't know what it's talking about. Pretty colors though.
Blessings. ✨
Not slow Sparky...Googled it to and I put the description in the comments above. Its all about the history of the Blues.
That pie looks good to me and a great way to use whatever is available. No waste it the best, I think!
Thank you for the info on the 61 Highway. I would've never guessed it! Your ham and tater tot pie looks good...great idea! I loved your random post today. It was all fun and interesting and colorful too!! Great items that got sold! Win Win for you! Happy New Year!
Hmm. That sign is intriguing me as well.
Google 61 highway or wikipedia for a good explanation.
That pie looks yummy. How do you get the crust to stay crisp on the bottom?Mine always go soggy.
Your pot pie looks delicious. Smart idea with the tater tots for the top. Usually leftover ham gets made into scalloped potatoes with ham here.
cute sign about the 61 highway. Your food dish is calling my name..I need something warm and comforting right now for my tummy. It is cold outside. Random post are interesting...they give us ideas and thoughts about things we have not seen before. Stay well and stay warm...
