Good morning Friends... Hope you all are doing great and are safe and happy!
Well, yesterday I turned 74. It was a fun day spent with Larry and our girls... Hubby grilled a tri-tip roast...and cheese sausage. we ate sandwiches (on LoCarb sandwich bread) The meal was so good! And lots of laughing and chasing little Sloane who will have her 3rd birthday on the 15th and getting cuddles with Lottie.
We went shopping for Sloanes party favors and Lottie's formula... all in all, a blessed day spent with loved ones.
Most people get flowers or candy or a meal out for their birthday...not me! lol...I got a new gas stove. Really needed one. The old one was a Jenn Aire and worked great for years. But it new needs a serious rest. Pilot lights work off and on...the enamel has worn down from many cleanings... and the two ovens are two too many for us these days. I went with a gas, 30", single oven, self-clean, simple model, Whirlpool. Along with a matching microwave that serves as the ventahood. Gets delivered Monday. Can't wait.
Then I asked Larry to make me some wooden forms so I could wrap my fabric... Makes it so much neater!
We ate out after church...enjoyed the Chinese buffet!
Larry made chicken breast, green beans with cream gravy... seriously good.
I made fried chicken thighs with a sweet potato in the airfryer.
Anyway...that's about it for me this week...
Hope you all are in good health or doing some great healing!
So... until next time ...

May your heart be filled with joy and gratitude for the many blessings in your life, and may you experience His peace and presence in the year ahead. Happy 74th birthday! 🎈
Happy birthday Donna! And happy birthday to Sloane as well. I can't get my head around the fact that she will be 3 on the 15th. The 15th of August is Mother's Day where I live, so what a lovely day for a birthday!
The wooden forms are such a great idea to store fabrics!
What a lovely story about the soldier and the spider's web! xxx
Happy Birthday Donna! And Happy birthday to Sloane too. Our grandson Connor and Sloane share a birthday. He will be 1 on the 15th.
Great idea to have Larry cut those wood forms!
I like the new oven.
Have a great week!
Happy birthday ( a day late). Good to know you had a good day. Enjoy your new stove 💗
Congrats on your 74th special day.
Happy 74th birthday and I love your new stove!
The first picture of the aqua house and the last picture of the house in pink - gosh I love those colors.
I would love to know how to make that cream gravy your husband made.
And it was a beautiful story about the spider webs - we don't know how God does protect us do we?
Happy Birthday and happy cooking when you get the new oven. The meals you show always look so delicious. Glad you had a wonderful day with family.
Happy Birthday for yesterday and it's nice to know you enjoyed it.
The baby photos are lovely, sweet little thing.
Your new stove/oven looks great and I bet you can't wait to get it.
Happy Birthday sweet lady. I'm glad you had a nice day. I wouldn't mind getting a new stove for my birthday.
All that food looks so good.
Happy Birthday!
Happy, Happy Birthday. It sounds like you had a great time celebrating. Wow, a new stove is quite a gift. You always show the most delectable meals here on the blog.
Love the photos of the sweet family too.

Happy Birthday Donna, and to Sloane also! Sounds like a wonderful celebration with one to come. Darling photos of your sweet family. That is a great birthday gift and I can see you'll be having a great time with both oven and microwave. Your fabric patterns are pretty, clever idea on those fabric forms. I've seen ones for folding clothes. Yummy food as always. A wonderful story of the young soldier. Thank you for another fun read and have a great week.
Happy Birthday to you! I would have taken a stove and microwave as a birthday present if I needed one too. The wood for your fabric is a great idea. A great story about the soldier and glad the bull got the idiot. Served him right. Janice
Happy Birthday Donna, and Happy birthday to Sloane as well.
All the best Jan
Happy Happy 74! Very cool. Love that you ate food you dig, on your special day.
Wishing you some very happy days ....sorry I missed your Birthday...I will also send Birthday wishes. Such a neat idea to have the wooden boards to wrap you fabric on...This most likely helps in your organizing your sewing area.
É bom ver que a família se dá bem e interage de maneira apropriada.
Continuação de felicidades com muita saúde.
Abraço de amizade.

Happy Belated Birthday and congratulations on your new stove,
Great you got a new stove! I also got a new stove/oven and I'm enjoying cooking different things in it. Sweet pictures of little Lottie. So good of Larry to make you wooden forms to wrap your fabrics. That rose fabric is so pretty. I would love those as pillow covers. The Chinese dish looks amazing. I still can't decide if Chinese or Italian is my favorite. Your air fried chicken always looks good. Have a splendid week, Donna.

Happy belated Birthday. It sounds like the perfect kind of day.
Hard to believe Sloane is going to be three. Nice BDay gift.
Happy belated Birthday 🎁!
Happy 74th birthday! You are 37 days older than me! I hope you had a wonderful day and a stove that works great is a wonderful gift!
Happy belated birthday, you had a wonderful day. It's so special to spend time with family and get those sweet cuddles with the little ones. I hope Sloane has a fantastic third birthday too.
I also love your idea for the wooden forms for your fabric, it looks so neat and organized.
It seems like you and Larry are enjoying some delicious home-cooked meals. Fried chicken and green beans with cream gravy sound so comforting. What is your favorite kind of food to cook at home?
I hope that you enjoy your new stove. I got a new stove this year, a gas stove, like my other one, but this has a computerized control panel that I really don’t like at all. Honestly, I guess it’s a sign of old age, but I really miss knobs. Real, actual knobs that I can turn.
