    HAPPY EASTER SATURDAY!

    Sandy, I think it is a shame that they are treating you like that.  When I was younger DH, DD and I would alternate Holidays and that did not seem to bother my mom.  I miss her terribly. She loved holidays.  I wish you lived closer, I would want you to have dinner with us.

    I would guess 3 bunches, Deb.

    Calzones are in the oven, will make cookies later.  I want to get back outside.  I went for a short motorcycle ride while my son was at baseball practice.  Doing yard work while calzones are cooking and then I hope to go on another ride.

    Smells heavenly here!

    I will buy 3 bunches, thanks.  I will make my cheese cake later right now I'm doing alittle cleaning and will pick up sticks in the front yard, it's messy out there.  Then I'll go to the grocery store to pick up veggies.

    I can smell the calzones.

    I bought two bunches of Asparagas just for me. They were 99 cent a bunch.

    Do you think I have enough?

    Little cool today. I only took 1 walk.

    Feel sleepy. Chirping birds on the tree in front of my bedroom woke me up at 6 this morning. They were annoying that early.

    Nothing exciting to report.

    Christine called she is making 2 trays of lasagna 1  with meat 1 with cheese.

    They are going to their friends house tomorrow.

    Other DD is working tomorrow.

    She was a sous chef for 4 years for Westchester Country Club. Bread and pastry.

    Now she does work privately to 2 families. Summertime they rent a home at the Hamptons.

    She goes with them and stays in the guest house.

    She also does private caterings and parties. This is the busy time now,.

    Its a hard job. She loves to cook and make fancy stuff.

    But she will also be very good if she can have her own catering and other people work for her.

    She is very organized and business type woman. She used to organize parties for 200 people or more. Can you tell I love her and Im very proud of her.

    Im proud both of my girls.

    XOXO

    I did 5 loads of laundry.

    I sinned by eating cheese it squares (small size) tasts like Gold fish.

    Had eggs for breakfast.

    Don't feel like cooking .I'll have my emergency lean cuisine turkey dinner.

    I felt so bad for Deb's (Cherneski) mom passing.

    Sandy...I would been very happy at the shore.

    And that was my day.

    Almost summer like temperatures.

    Yes, I feel bad for Deb too.  It's so sad to lose a parent.  It's so sad to lose anyone.

     You Go Girl! Sandy,
    do something for YOU for a change.

    Another delicious dinner, it is so easy when everyone brings something.  Started at 2 ended about 6.  Then I went to see my Dad.  I hope he goes home soon, he just seems to be stagnant in that nursing home.  He is loosing the sense of what day it is.
