Bonjour! Hello friends! We’re back from a wonderful two weeks in France!

Hello, buttercup! Happy Easter! I was just going down Memory Lane, remembering childhood Easters. I wish I had a couple of pictures to share, of us five kids, dressed for church, with our baskets!

Are you feeling Irish, today? I’m what I’ve heard to be Heinz 57. According to my limited ancestry research, I’m mostly of Western European origin. There’s a dab of Irish in me, but who needs that, to enjoy corned beef and cabbage? I remember as a kid, going to Catholic school, there was no green…

Hello, dear heart! At this point, I’m so thankful for every gorgeous ray of sunshine! How about you? Do I even need to ask? One thing’s for sure, our lakes and reservoirs will be full, this spring. I just wish there were a few more reservoirs, to contain more of this beautiful rain water! This…

Hello, dear one! Do you like to cook? I do…most days. This time of year, I love soups, stews, Italian dishes and roasted chicken…which is Bob’s specialty.
