Oh and don't forget the Mr. Moms too!
We had a warmish day here at the lake. It was typically a grey dome day meaning the skies were grey and sunless with a uniform cover of clouds. At least we are thankful it will be about freezing tonight. I would be inclined to take my plants out to the balcony so I can paint, but one more day will make a boost to the temps that will mean a world of difference to my little green friends!
Can you check out those buds- soon to be leaves. Only if they knew they were a month behind Virginia in the bloom department!

So it is a holiday here in the US of A: Mothers Day. Today I spent some time unpacking my earlier life with mom. We got along famously all my life. She taught me all about art and gardening and even fishing. Sadly, she also taught me how Alzheimer's disease can destroy so much so quickly. We certainly had some rough times near the end. Mom never wanted to go into a nursing home. In fact she was terrified of them. Well she never went in one. We cared for her with hospice in home care. It was not an easy job, and I hope to never have to do it again.
We lit a candle
Made up some of our World Famous Paul's Punch
I ordered up some pizzas
Reasonably priced is always nice...
The classic pepperoni.
Chicken and bacon...
And also my new favorite, Philly Cheese Steak!
Oh and I even had a salad! Yes those are actually Mandarin oranges and raisins in it...YUM!
I actually told about the salad so then I could with less guilt tell you about this. Nice brownie with a couple of cream puffs. I broke the one open on the left so you can get an idea about the cream inside of it. Now before you yell, remember I did have a salad 😲
The kids spoiled me with a surprise of this bluebird fridge magnet. Aren't bluebirds just not the best!?!
Oh yes. I was running low on the tin I had gotten for Christmas. FERIDIES has the absolute best. I have done a bit of study on this and these peanuts are HUGE and crunchy. To make sure you get the same experience make doubly sure you order: "Super Extra Large Virginia Peanuts". Super extra large is a grade and are worth the extra bucks.

Over 2200 reviews on Amazon and 4.6 stars, you cant go far wrong with these heavenly nuts!
Well thanks for joining me on this Mother's Day as I probably gained 10 pounds as there was not much pizza leftover. Yes YIKES!
