Well didn’t Sunday’s birthday parade just
go great?
The 60 year old birthday girl had no idea what was
going on as her daughter got her settled in the yard
with a glass of wine...
A line of cars, decorated with balloons and banners
came around the corner and slowly passed
in front of her.
We honked, we yelled, we sang,
and we circled back to leave gifts and tp on her lawn.
She cried.
Top photo is birthday girl,
Bottom is two friends.
And she loved the hooked dog!
I finished another UFO:
“Pumpkin Perch” is sold by W. Cushing.
It’s hooked in a 6.
And here’s a bit of advice to take or leave...
In anticipation of possible food shortages AND
to support local growers,
hubby and I enrolled in a CSA
(Community Supported Agriculture)
to take weekly delivery of a large veggie box.
This begins in June and lasts 20 weeks.
Since there are only two of us
we will eat some and freeze some.
Our CSA offers meat boxes too but meat
isn’t high on our needs list.
We will grow a few things on the deck but
this will ensure a steady supply.
A family member has fallen ill to Covid
but is young and a runner and so far
headaches and fatigue have been the
only issues.
Prayers abounding...

prayers to your family member. what a fun surprise I bet she loved it!
I have thought about a csa since there is only two of us I worried a lot would go to waste.

Thanks Cathy
I don’t really do any canning, so I plan to freeze enough “overage” for winter. I make lots of soups and stews in the cold months.
Good idea for the CSA and we have them in my area too. Am looking forward to red, ripe, juicy tomatoes but still have a wait until I get them. Saying prayers here too for your family member. Of course the birthday girl loved Willie.
How sweet that the birthday convoy was a success! Hope your family member is alright. Love the rug too! Janice
Sweet pic of the birthday girl with Willie Nelson!
Pumpkin Perch ~ great finish.
Prayers for your family member.
Thanks Saundra! Fresh tomatoes are at the top of my wish list!
I love the birthday photos of your friend and Willie Nelson. All the attention must have made her day very special.
Prayers for your family member who has Covid-19. I like your pumpkin perch mat.
Stay well and safe.
Hugs, Julia
