Beware of Baklava!

 Well, I finally managed to get back into blogger. Crazy computer!

We had a nice trip to the Tri-cities. We went to the party Tuesday evening and darn if that Mindy didn't buy the most delicious Baklava, a rich, sweet, wonderful Greek desert. I had a few pieces and then alittle piece of carrot cake. That did it! I had the worst gall bladder attack ever! After getting over the worst of it I was feeling better Wed. morning and just laid around for the next couple days....afraid to eat anything! But, because of that I got to visit with lots of Grandkiddos and watch my great grandson Edison toddle around . He is very sweet. Rachel changed his diaper and put it in the waste basket. Well, alittle later he walked by the wastebasket and saw the diaper in it. He picked it up and shook it at Rachel as he let her know that was his job!! He put it back in and then took it out again and repeated his rage and then put it back in. It was pretty funny. Kids are such good entertainment!

I never did get down to the river but it was beautiful out my window. Got to spend some time with my sister Liz before I got sick. Jim worked on her bathroom while we shopped.  Visited with Cozette, she looks good for 89, we miss having her close.

    Before I had my gall bladder removed, I was in terrible pain and was not sure what it was. I suffered through till it became unbearable and I finally went to the hospital. When they removed it, relief came quickly. Within a week or two, I was fine.

 I've always had a bird feeder, for years now. They bring alot of joy to me, nature so up close and personal. Now that we don't have any pets, we've loved having our bird feeders up again. We have this one tree out back and we have a little of everything for them. A little bird bath, three feeders and a suet feeder. There's usually ten to twenty birds in the tree at all times. Lots of beautiful finches, lots of yard birds, lots of black birds (who are quite noisy) red wing black birds and yellow headed black birds. We finally identified one that we couldn't figure out and its a Evening Grosbeak. Some come and we never see them again, just passing through. But, it's our little obsession right now, gives me something to do every morning. But, dang those birds are eating us out of house and home!

 chop, chop, chop were the sounds I woke up too yesterday. I've been hearing those sounds alot these last few weeks as my manly man has made hot sauce and salsa galore. But..............this morning it was different. I woke up to a beautiful bowl of tabbouleh...my favorite salad. The combination of the bulgar, parsley, cucumber and tomatoes just tickles my palet. My favorite part this time of the year are the pomegranate seeds, they add such color and flavor.(I really shouldn't be eating it but I chewed extra well ummm) Oooops a jar of grape juice just broke, manly man is canning....be right back. O.K. that's cleaned up and I'm heading out for a long overdue walk. It's a lovely day, blue skies and sun.

all is well

My daughter Becky should be home from the hospital soon, her surgery went well. Next the mourning for what was and will never be again, she had a lot of good cries last night. They weighed the breast and it was seven and a half pounds! I knew it was close to ten. Like she said jokingly she was looking forward to getting "alot off her chest". When I talked to her on the phone this morning I asked her how in the world did she ever get anything done with a two year old and 5mon. old! I did manage to get us all clean and fed by eleven. Is that good? And to think I raised six! Todays is Becky's Abbie's birthday, we hope to go to the movies this afternoon. I guess on the way home from the hospital they are picking up a new kitty for the children. They had promised them one when they moved in to their house, so how wonderful of them to realize what a good time it would be to bring one home. My children are so wise in so many things.Well........baby calls! Happy Day to you a
