Fun With Food
A couple weeks ago, a friend shared pictures of her family Hocus Pocus movie night with themed food to go along with the festivities. I realized that Halloween would be on a Monday and that my mom’s friend would be over, so decided to make them a Halloween lunch. I had fun looking at all […]
One Good Turn
I rarely go to the grocery on a Sunday night, but I did today. The place looked like a whirlwind went through it and there were many empty shelves. I went down one aisle and spied a woman climbing on the lower shelf to reach a large bag of Halloween candy pushed all the way […]
Sweet Outing
I took my mom to get her haircut today. We have been going to this woman for only a few months. She is super nice, gentle, and she does a great job. Today my mom told her how hard it is for her to keep on weight. She told her that she already eats ice […]
Ice Cream Visit
One of our neighbors came over for a little while today while I ran to the grocery store. Before she came, my mom was talking about what to offer her out of hospitality. Just at that time, I got a text from the neighbor saying that she was going to bring over some ice cream. […]
Peanut Butter Pie
My son was out and about today and asked if he could stop by. So, he and his girlfriend came over when we got back from church. He returned a container of mine. And like any good friend, he didn’t return it empty. They had made peanut butter cup pie and shared some with us. […]
Community Picnic
This evening was the annual community picnic. I was happy that my mom wanted to go and had the energy to do so. She talked with a couple friends who she hadn’t visited with in a very long time. And we met some new people as well. We were afraid that it would rain on […]
Key Lime Pie
My mom receives recipes in her email on a regular basis. The other day it included a recipe for key lime pie. She mentioned it to me and my sister. She told us that her father loved key lime pie, but even as a baker, he never made one. They did, however, make it to […]
Fun Family Fourth
This afternoon we got together with much of the family for lunch. I don’t have a grill, but my son does, so he cooked up some burgers and hot dogs and brought them over to add to the rest of the food that everyone prepared. My daughter in law made a beautiful and delicious cake. […]
Friends Still Lunching
Today my mom and I met some of her long time friends for lunch. One of the ladies picked up another who just turned 91 years old. She was struggling a bit to recognize her friends and remember where she met them. She is very sweet and has a very quiet voice. One of the […]
Mom’s 90th Part 2
This morning at breakfast, my mom thanked God for being on this earth for 90 years. My brother and I thanked Him as well. My mom’s friend came over as usual and they played the piano. We used to go out to lunch every week after the private concert, but COVID changed everything. Instead of […]
