Good morning, Friends. It's been another unremarkable week...I think I'm going to just be grateful for that.
I went to my eye surgeon's appointment yesterday. I go every six months. I had a macular hole repaired. He now is saying it looks like I have the beginnings of macular degeneration...I don't need injections...just a high-powered vitamin, PreserVision AREDS 2, twice a day. I hope it helps. I don't want to have to get the injections into my eye...uggg
I love this thing! I got a large jar...dropped in a string of tiny lights that you plug in (they get hotter and diffuse the fragrance better) poured in one of those large bags of fragranced flowers, wood shavings, etc. I know you've seen them.
Then I topped the jar with a lace doilie...and ribbon. Then plug it in! YUM!!
The scent last for years! I made this jar about 30 years ago! It's still putting off a sweet scent...not as strong as in years past but still a scent that is filling my dining room, as I type.
Larry (Gampa) and I (Gamma) gave Samantha (our granddaughter), this buggy for her work. She does weddings and needed a method of transporting all her supplies from her car to the venues. Sloane, (our greatgran) decided it must be for her...and refused to get out of it...Lolol
The only way we could get her out, without creating a scene, was using bubbles. Samantha has a bubble gun and started loading it and spraying it...lol...well Sloane decided that was wonderful and she had to be part of all the excitement!
Mom and Dad took her to the zoo...and Samantha said the buggy also came in very handy there, as well.
Lolol...Don't get it? Think a moment...
I made some shortbread cookies. I sprinkled sugar crystals on them before baking. I also added 1 CUP of powdered sugar instead of the called for, 3/4ths cup, to the dough.
Larry made us some Teriyaki chicken leg quarters for our lunch yesterday. We'll enjoy them today. I'll simply re-heat along with a side veggie.
This is one of my favorite little poems about your children and how fast time flies by...When I first read it, years ago, I almost cried. I miss being that young mother...I know you probably do, as well.
So...with that, I'll close for this week. Hope you all are having a sweet and blessed day.
Until next time...
