THURSDAY'S MIXED BAG

Pardon me while I brag (again). Our youngest daughter, Bree, is a neo-natal intensive care nurse. She loves to draw pictures for her babies and hangs them on their beds. The parents love it. Well, not too long ago, the hospital asked her to do murals in one of the rooms on her off days. And she got paid for it. It's something she loves to do. She had to co-ordinate when she could do it, when the room was empty and when maintenance could bring her a ladder. She finished it today and I think she did an incredible job. We're so proud of her. I know her work will put smiles on lots of faces for years to come.

WAY TO GO BREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


This is the first wall she did....I love those cute monkeys! And the elephant makes me smile.

But just look at the tiger....how cute!!!!!

But wait...I love the zebra.....

and the giraffe....

oh, and this sweet lion.....

and the squirrel hiding in the tree is darling too.

Today I went crazy with my exercising. I rode my bike over to the gym on the bayside, did 30 minutes on the treadmill, did the weights and then rode my bike over to the village and met George and Miss Daisy for lunch. After lunch, I rode another 5 miles before going home for awhile. Then (yes there's more) I rode another 10 miles this afternoon with George. i'm guessing I rode about 20 miles total today. Why all the bike riding? I'll tell you....tomorrow...how's that for a cliffhanger?

Here's what I'd love for breakfast on Mother's Day! Blueberry filled pancakes. Yummy! William Sonoma sells a special "filled pancake" pan, but I'm wondering if I could make them just using my small muffin pans. I think I could. Go here to see the pan and to get the recipe. Don't they look wonderful?!

And last, but not least...guess whose birthday is tomorrow (Friday the 25th)? It's our sweet friend, Teresa at Living The Life.

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TERESA!!!!!!!!!!
