May Day-Derby Day-Mother Goose Day...what did you do?
Comments (26)Luckygal, where in the world are you? Somewhere near a beach obviously--but which one. Sorry no good luck on the TS shopping, do keep trying! Jeanne, I have two baker's racks outside, one is a corner unit--but neither look nearly as cute as yours with your collections and vignettes. I need to work on mine I think. That is so neat that you do the Farmer's market too. Candy, I'm another one who does tablescapes for my "imaginary" friends. DH will only eat at the table when we have company--rest of the time he prefers to eat in front of the tv. Karen, I didn't do a table, but I did glue a little cheese tray and glass dome on a pedestal and decorate it--can I get any points for that? ;o) Kathleen, the rooster napkins like in your photo that you shared with me are some of my favs. We don't do sit down breakfast often, but I like to just sit the table and display them on the plates because they look so cute....See MoreWhat Are You Doing For Mother's Day?
Comments (11)I really wish someone would cook for me, but no one else in this house cooks. I will not cook, I am sick of cooking for my family so I won't do it that day for sure. But I also don't like a chaotic restaurant and having to wait. There are still kids' sports on Mothers' Day (rained out games had to be rescheduled, it was a last resort), so whatever we do will work around that. My own mother is too far away for a meal celebration (though if we were close, I'm sure we would, we like to celebrate with food). I traditionally send her lilacs. They are her favorite and she can't grow them in FL. It takes planning to get them from her local florist, so I may need to place the order this week. Can't get them all year, so fortunately mothers' day is in the right season. ;o) It works out perfectly....See MoreHappy Mother's Day all you moms..what will you be doing?
Comments (14)Happy Mother's Day everyone. We will be having a cookout at Amber and Mike's with everyone pitching in and bringing food. We are not going to have ours until around five in the evening. I went to a Mother / Daughter banquet at our church this evening. Had a nice meal prepared by the men, I think mostly by the preacher. Had cubed steak with brown gravy, chicken tenders, mashed potatoes, green beans, cottage cheese and coleslaw. For dessert we had ice cream, sherbet and some little pastry things with fruit in them. Very tasty meal and very much enjoyed. Sue...See MoreDo You Have Plans for Labor Day?
Comments (18)Nowhere, the roads are full with cottagers. I was planning on buying a 1/2 bushel of roma tomatoes that are on sale this week. I buy a full bushel each year, and give a bunch to Mom. So I'm planning on a 1/2 bushel for this year. The sale started yesterday, and the store didn't have them. There was a sign on the door saying that there's an extreme shortage of them. We went this morning first thing to 2 stores, neither had any. I asked the manager at the second store and he checked, and they aren't expecting any in till Tuesday! There goes my Holiday Monday plans. It's extremely hot and muggy yesterday and today, and supposed to cool down to 20 degrees on Monday which is when I was wanting to make sauces and roasted tomato soup. Darn! I always give my step-father cartons of the soup for his birthday each year and he loves it....See MoreMarilyn Sue McClintock
