Sorry to say, but this site has been so depressing for a few days. I thought I'd ask an average, everyday question....to make us all feel a little more normal today.
I made Eggplant Lasagna, and my BIL and SIL are coming for dinner. They leave for Cali tomorrow to see their beautiful grand daughter.
Sorry, sometimes we just need some REGULAR conversation.......or at least THIS caregiver does.
I too have that can't throw the leftovers out mindset but am doing holiday prep cleanup today. 'Last chance' dinner leftovers then out it all goes...
hug!!
you’re right...oh boy, i’ve kind of forgotten how to have normal conversations! my days are worry, trying to help, solving issues...
you’re right, we need normal conversations :).
eggplant lasagna...mmm :).
over here, i’ll make italian risotto tomorrow, with potato and rosemary from the garden :).
sending new year 2021 hugs to us all :).
bundle of joy
Two special men celebrating their birthdays with memories of their best friends - our dads!
Thank you - he enjoyed it thoroughly especially when I served the Sparkling Wine in our wedding champagne flutes.
We haven't had the cake yet - we're letting our tummies settle down a little bit and will take Chloe for a walk first. She had her 14th birthday party yesterday and I got out a pretty, hot pink birthday plate and put an assortment of her favorite treats on it! She did get a couple of super tiny pieces of the filet as I don't really like to give her too much table food.
I will tell my husband you wished him a Happy Birthday too.
Hope you and mom are doing good as I've been wondering if everything was ok!
Your dad ordering the car for your husband sounded so bittersweet - that made it all the more special since they were best friends for years.
My husband was best friends with my dad and when he passed away in 2004, it was extremely difficult. He didn't get a car but he did get my dad's keyboard, which they spent so much time playing. My mom gave it to him as a birthday gift years ago and it now sits in our dining/living room area.
Gee, I better not let my husband see your post - it will pale in comparison to my husband's birthday celebration!
What a wonderful surprise for him and well deserved after ALL you and your family have gone through.
Enjoy your special evening!
I'm looking forward to enjoying a nice and hopefully relaxing meal after a lousy week!
Happy birthday to your hubby!
Sounds like a delicious meal that would cheer anyone up.
For dessert a marble cake with vanilla buttercream frosting and coffee.
Now that should "cheer" him up!
Now, I can generously add mushrooms to my omelettes, stir-fried dishes, pasta, soup, etc. Yummm... I'm in heaven.
