Early this morning I had a call from Daughter Becky from Geneva, Switzerland. It sounded like she was next door. She is there conducting a Work Shop for Teachers. She plans to be here to visit over Labor Day. Will be good to see her.
The get together was for birthdays and Bill's making Deputy Sheriff. Joann prepared a delicious meal and we had a full table of guests. Bill's Mom was here, his Step Father, Brother Randy, Aunt Charlotte, friends Susan and Ron. and of course, the Guests of Honor, James, Veronica. I was there too. A good time was had by all.
Today was filled with goodbyes. James off to California, Veronica back to St. Pete. Before going James made my favorite dish, Macaroni and Cheese and Thin Steak. He always makes it for me. He made enough for tomorrow too. Oh so good.
This evening I had Green Beans and Potato Salad. Joann made the Potato Salad but the Green Beans were in a gift basket that neighbors Karen and Bill brought in. It was the neatest gift.  It was a lovely wire basket with fresh vegetables in it right off the farm. There was Corn, the most beautiful Tomatoes I have ever seen, Green Beans, a jar of Pepper Sauce. a Gourmet Chocolate Bar, and to top it all off a loaf of French Bread. Everything delicious.Â
The French Bread brought back memories. My Husband used to make Pasta Sauce at least once a week and he would always scoop out a bowl when it was almost done and dip French Bread into it. He had to have Italian Bread on the table but French Bread for dipping.Â
So, all in all, it has been a banner week end for me.  Hope yours was as pleasant.
Love and prayers from here to thereÂ
