Vegan Eats: Pasta Salad with Grilled Portabello

March 23 2020

Layers of flavors in this pasta salad = Grateful for this deliciousness …

March 26 2020

A grilled portobello deluxe accidentally fell into my online cart at Great Full Gardens earlier today when I ordered the lunch soup. I’m so grateful it did!!! Delicious! And while we were ordering Lillian’s fries, a cheeseburger and fries accidentally got added to the order for Thomas. Made for an easy night of dinner making for me.

Throwback Post: Patience While Worrying with Relaxing and Cleaning and Laughing

**THROWBACK POST**

May 26 2015:

Reminders about life from conversations with Thomas …

Discussing patience with him. He does not like to be patient. As I’m putting him to bed, he says, “Like you need to be patient?” There are some changes going on and I’m getting all worked up about not knowing and not being able to control the result right now, not having an answer right now. I said, “So I should just stop worrying, stop trying to figure it out, just release it, and know that everything will work out as it should?” “Yep, something like that” -Thomas …

My shoulders and neck liked that. They can now move back to their proper location instead of wrapped around my ears. I just LOVE the way this all works. I think others needed to hear this tonight too. Love to you .. xoxo

We had a GREAT day relaxing at home with a little bit of cleaning and pulling weeds, lots of laughing and tons of reading! LOVE!!

Going Ape with the Elephants While Being Worn Out

January 5 2020:

Thomas helped decorate the open shelving in the kitchen. I put the elephant there, cause elephants. Thomas added the gorilla. He says I can look at him while I’m doing dishes. 🦍🖤🐘

January 16 2020:

They don’t look worn out, do they? I had a fingerprint live scan this morning. The tech had issues with a few of my fingers, commenting that my fingerprints were worn out. I didn’t know that was possible. Ha!

Kinda matches the rest of me, though. 2020 is the year, the beginning of a decade, of pressing the reset button, with focus on becoming un-worn out. I feel the relief in my bones, my cells, every breath I take. Here’s to unwornoutness!! 🎉❤️❤️❤️🎉

Throwback Post: Snow Eating Snake

**THROWBACK POST**

May 26 2010:

Lillian and Thomas were about to have a throw down cause Thomas’s snake was eating the snow. I suggested to Thomas that his snake eat the worms on the ground that have snow on top of them. Throw down averted!! {This is all imaginery stuff my friends!!} Hahahahahahahaha!!

Radishes With a Side of Salad With Visions of Apple Cranberry Pie

December 24 2019:

Lunch today. Oh, that was good! Love radishes. Yum!

December 30 2019:

It is done. The Meeting the Authors website is back up … after 4 days of phone calls and frustration. You know, if you call a place every day and get a different person every time, you finally hit the jackpot of someone who takes the time to help you (well almost) … as I had to figure out the last step on my own, and it worked completely by accident.

I’ve just had a lovely piece of apple cranberry pie, topped with vanilla bean ice cream. Now I shall take the rest of the night off after I give Lillian a Reiki session.

January 4 2020:

All kitchen boxes have been unpacked. Treated myself to a lovely, generous salad.

Those Paws

December 22 2019:

I present the beautiful, sweet Roux (pronounced Roo). I get the pleasure of checking in on her while her human is away for Christmas. I’ve checked in on her in the past and she is such a sweetheart. She lives where we moved from. I’ve got 2 former neighbors who will still have me check on their sweet fur friends when out of town.

Thomas went with me last night. He couldn’t resist having a little photo shoot. Those paws!! So stinking cute!! (I was rubbing her belly; which she adores!)
