A Replay

A gloomy start but we ended up with some great sunshine.  Felt like we were in the 40s tho.  Once again Little Wonder got me up three times during the night.  Needless to say I was very tired today.  He seems ok and it better not turn into a habit.

Spent a little time outside and ran a couple of errands.

Gary's raised beds are doing very well.  Garlic, onions, shallots and strawberries so far.

The house felt very damp and we started a fire before noon.  Had a couple nice conversations with friends and tried to take a nap. About the iPhone and pacemakers.....Mine is a Medtronic and it says I should keep it 6 inches away from the device.  When I have it in a pouch while riding my bike it is over 12 inches away.  So Sandra, I will call you again.

I made sloppy Joes and put it in the crockpot so it was all set for tonight.  Then I made bean salad, which filled three jars.

Another simple dinner.

Such good light around 6:30.

You can almost watch the strawberries grow.  We had a frost warning for tonight and I sure hope all of our stuff makes it.

Night all.

 

Pretty in Pink

Gorgeous all day long.  A high of 56 but with the strong wind it felt like the 40s.  Little Wonder and I had the usual start for the morning, but by 10am I was on my trike.

This time my music video for Ride #9 was from a different perspective. An artistic point of view.  

Check out the title of the song BLUES BRUSHSTROKES.  I did not notice it until after it was posted.

I needed some new flowers for our kitchen table and there were not that many tulips left.

Little Wonder enjoyed the sunshine.  Last night he woke me up three times wanting to go outside.  Needless to say, I needed a nap this afternoon.... and never got one.

He did!

Breakfast for dinner.  French toast and sausage with a side of applesauce.  We had our leftovers from last night's dinner for lunch.

Night all.

 

An Early Celebration

Great weather today.

Gary put the shelves back together for my pots and pans, so I got that organized and then

went out to pick some flowers for Jenny.

Tonight we were celebrating Mother's Day.

Gary got the hand mowing all done and picked some rhubarb.

The strawberry plants look so good.

I made a small batch of sauce and my next thing will be rhubarb shortcake.

Jenny, Scott and Finn picked us up a little before 5 and we were off to Main Street Pizza in Batavia for dinner.

We were very surprised when Cooper walked in!  He drove over from Buffalo to join us and we were able to catch up with all his latest adventures.  Two more exams and he will be finished for the semester.  Then he can come home for two weeks before starting a 10 week internship at a bank in Buffalo.

Finn will also finish up this semester in a couple of days.

This restaurant never lets us down.  Everyone was totally satisfied and we all took home leftovers for tomorrow.

We were back at the farm before 7:30 and sent Jenny home with some flowers and a bag of coffee.

She gave me the sweetest card....

and two begonia plants....one for each porch.

Night all.
