I may try and spend part of the day somewhere afield if the weather permits and I'm not in the middle of some project here that needs finishing. In actuality, I'm pretty low key re. my own birthdays. I used to bake myself a chocolate cake, but haven't do so in years. A big dish of ice cream is about all the celebration I need. :-)<br /><br />And thank you for asking…Anya Grace is just dandy!<br />Grizz…………https://www.blogger.com/profile/04828454689578685330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322683719539438825.post-6595577002767912122016-04-25T06:05:24.494-04:002016-04-25T06:05:24.494-04:00It's my birthday time, too.

Well, we've fizzled out on our big work...Gail…<br /><br />Well, we've fizzled out on our big workday plans. Got some, but not all, done, mostly due to kitchen paint which refuses to dry. The "4 hours between coats" has turned out to be more like 6 or 7…meaning the second won't be dry enough for me to install some things until about midnight. Which isn't happening. Now everything is piled in chairs, on tables and the floor, with no hope of getting it put away tonight, no easy way to cook much (I pulled out the counter tops this morning) and an unexpected mess. <br /><br />Hope you and Skipp managed your gardening stuff. Feed him well—I know he's been a real jack-of-all-trades lately. And it sounds like you have that well in hand…your dinner sounds delicious. A meal fit for a genuine hard-working man!

My Dad would have loved and appreciated his work ethic, values, man's man approach with a gentle and kind style, an all around really good guy. :-) As are you my friend, as are you.......<br /><br />Today we are planting our herb garden and getting the soil ready for our vegetables. My daughter surprised us with a morning visit, turnovers and Danish pastry in hand - and an elephant statue for our garden - SO many blessings - <br />we just made a batch of meatballs which we will cook partially and then let simmer in my home made marinara sauce and cook some pasta later and have a nice glass o fred wine- we have a pinot noir mmmmmmm. <br />Happy Sunday<br />Love Gail<br />peace.....Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11337675996256691215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322683719539438825.post-60254715282813238652016-04-24T08:56:26.115-04:002016-04-24T08:56:26.115-04:00Moonmuser…

Big ones, little ones, most in hues of white or yellow except for a half-blue capsule. Personally I prefer keeping track in dog years. And yes, I'm aware of my pending birthday (May is indeed the very best time of the year in which to be born!) because my daughter is going to fix chicken and dumplings for my dinner—or at least a dinner around that time. Plus I'm thinking pancakes for breakfast and steak on the grill for lunch. So good eats all around (there will be something in dark chocolate, which goes without saying), family time, including the granddaughter and new labradoodle pup…how much more can a man need on his birthday?

Skipp is turning into a real countryman! :-)<br />We worked both inside and out yesterday, and my body certainly knows it! More of the same today—carpentry, painting in the kitchen, grass cutting and perhaps flower planting outside. <br /><br />Hang in there!

It is our hope to buy our vegetable plants today. Heading out to an Amish farmer that has a greenhouse where she starts the vegetable plants. Oh the Western NY way of life :-)<br />Happy Saturday'<br />Love Gail<br />peace.....

However, I'm in total agreement re. the past-its-prime dandelion…it is truly beautiful.
