September 26th, 1972 to 2022...50th Wedding Anniversary

I still remember most vividly, laying on the sofa, in our first apartment at Villa Victoria, asking Larry how our lives would look in fifty years...He was 24 and I was 21.
Lolol...He's now 74 and I'm 71. 
Two children and four grandchildren and one great-granddaughter later...we're still kicking.
We are Blessed.
The Kitchen Air Pro was my gift from hubby.  If you know me, you know I love to bake.  
A tremendous savings at Sam's Club!  $289!!!  It came with a 3qt and 6qt bowl, beaters for both, a slotted spoon for wiping the beater clean (works okay but I'm not impressed). 
Larry's still trying to decide what his gift from me will be...Lol...last words on it were coconut...and pie...lolol  Being married this long, you don't usually party hardy.  It's maybe lunch out...no biggie.
As long as we are still able to here for each other and the kids, that's really all that matters.







Great Gran Sloane...


Our daughter and Sloane's Grandmother, Lolli...



I acquired this recipe from my sister years ago.  I've made it every Christmas since 1979.  Everyone loves the stuff.




These are those weird Butter Swim biscuits...good Lord they're good!  
Recipe here:




Then I made these Egg & Bacon English muffins for the freezer.


They freeze great for up to 3-6 months, if wrapped right.



Also...beef & refried bean burritos.  They also freeze well... to serve, thaw, fill with lettuce, tomato and cheese.  A serious yum!



A dessert of cream brulee...so easy to make.

Hope you all are enjoying the last day of Summer, here in the USA.  
Fall is upon us although you couldn't prove it by me...here in Texas today it's supposed to be 97*F, 36C.  Looks like it'll be hot up until week after next...so tired of the heat.  It blasted us this year!  Our yard is simply straw...since we weren't able to water like we use to.  It's restricted watering.  The water is high here, as well...$130 a month, minimum!  The electric has climbed as well...everything has!
Have a sweet and peaceful week guys...see you next time!
