Helpful Hints and Recipes: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MARCY

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MARCY

Today was my sister Marcy's birthday. I cooked a dinner for her just as she cooked one for me on my birthday. Annie and Ricky came over and we all had a good time. Her son, Demetrius, came with her and, of course, Bill was here. I really enjoy being with my family. That is one of life's true blessings in life which we should all enjoy while we can.

Bill is still dealing with the pain from his surgery. I will be so glad when this pain goes away because we can't travel anywhere until it does. He can't sleep in a bed or sit still long enough for a plane ride. If we go on a car trip, we would have to stop innumerable times which really isn't so bad. Anyhow, I am ready to go on a trip somewhere. It sure looks like our Arizona trip next month is out. Oh well, we have to be thankful that we are here, period! And able to get around at all.

It's been a long day and now I am going to bed so goodnight all and have a blessed weekend.

ABOUT US

Chris and I became friends over 20 years ago when we were neighbors in the Philippines. We were living there with our families because of our husbands' jobs with Westinghouse. In fact, we were next door neighbors on the compound that we lived in. After returning Stateside, we were lucky enough to have Westinghouse assign our husbands to the same work site. Our husbands are good friends, also. We enjoy each other and feel fortunate to be blessed with such good, loving friends in our lives.

We cannot take credit for the helpful hints, tips or recipes that we put in. These are an accumulation of ones that we have collected over the years and still collect. We won't mind if someone needs a hint or recipe that we haven't posted yet and they want us to try to find it for them. In fact, we would like the challenge!

Chris and I have always loved to collect cookbooks, recipes and hints. You would not believe the number of books and newspaper and magazine clippings that we have. Plus, Dennis, Chris's husband, loves to cook and has some to add to the mix. I know there are those of you out there that have the same sort of collection. I was getting ready to get rid of some unneeded things I have around here and get ready for my huge annual Thanksgiving event. I thought I would share this with "the world" and Chris feels the same way. (Her and I are so much alike, it's scarey sometimes. To our husbands, that is!) Plus both of us are Taurus! Chris might even have some decorating tips for you because she is great at that. That is something that just doesn't come to me and I turn to her.

If you would like to comment on any of our postings, please do. We would love to know who is reading them and if they may in some way be of help. Or just entertaining to someone. We would love to know what you think of our little project.
