Be the Girl on the Right Luncheon

Yesterday brought a few friends to the patio for lunch.  It is good to have conversation and to remember times together.  And excellent side dishes were shared, thanks to you wonderful women.










Thank you, friends.  Jan F. (left) and Lynn (right) and I have been together since 2003 as a sort of support group for each other, meeting weekly for Coffee and Chats and sometimes lunch.  We have added some new friends along the way.

Janice, below, has joined our group since her mother passed away two years ago from metastatic breast cancer.  We love her, too, just as much as we did Maureen.

Morning Tea and a Game for Boys

What fun to share time with friends on a beautiful almost-summer morning.  Gal friends gathered in our back yard today for cold drinks and cucumber sandwiches and good conversation.





The little finger bites of vegetables and bread and butter were quite good; the picture above shows it made 24, less one previously consumed for quality assurance purposes.  Here is the recipe used for the cucumber sandwiches:


And I should have made a double batch.  Next time.

One momma brought her boys after swimming class to join us. Are they not just darling?  And smart, to boot!


The boys were offered 10 cents each for every "face" they could find in the garden.  The husband and I made a game of it last night while sitting outside and we found 39 faces in the garden. The boys came up with 40!

 Here are a few of the faces found in the garden:











Thanks, friends, for a fun time!
