Happy Birthday Barb + recipe
LOL!! Thanks. Did you notice that I didn't promote it myself this
year? It's still not too late for some serious online shopping for me,
though. :-)
Celebrate? Hmmm. That was last year - big party. :-) We may go out
to our estate west of town. "-) The flowers will be beautiful about
now. I'll post pictures.
I like to go to the MInneapolis Farmers Market; Rob hates crowds and
non-purposeful activity, though he tries to be a sport about it once a
year for me. I wouldn't mind picking up some more strawberries there -
I made Strawberry Mango Jam a couple nights ago, and a batch of plain,
too. I need to find out from one of my customers if he's going to want
Strawberry Rhubarb Jam this year. If not, I'll gladly take a pass on
making it. I did buy gold-plated apricots, though, today.
I don't have the enthusiasm for all of it that I've had in other years,
but who knows? We just recarpeted the house earlier in the week and I'm
still putting stuff back - I need to have it done by Wednesday. I have
a nifty new computer workstation (IKEA, Mikael line, corner workstation,
if you must) from him; a friend gave me another piece to the line, I
bought a piece, and I dropped a couple hints to kids about iLife '06 or
a Dot Mac account. Sleep would be good. Real good.
Thanks, Leila. It was a fun surprise to open the group and see your
post. Kiss your little ones for me, eh? La Twerp was here for a couple
days without her 'rents and I was reminded again of my mom -- I can hear
her words: "God gives you children when you're young so you can keep up
with them." I have some wonderful video clips of her irrepressible
giggle over her and her GRANDFATHER'S discussion of fart sounds. <Baba
crosses herself and rolls her eyes.> What a pair THEY are!
