Food 4 Thought Friday



Feel free to play along for some yummy fun!

~ This week's questions (courtesy of my friend, Jodi)
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Breakfast

If your job made you move, but you could choose which country you would be living in, which country would you choose and why?

Definitely somewhere tropical - The Cayman Islands would be nice! Although I would have to have food flown in because I hate seafood.


Lunch

Do you have any phobias?

Heights and driving in bad weather.


Dinner

What is something you can't help but spend money on?

Ummm, nothing specific comes to mind. I just spend too much money on everything I guess.


Midnight Snack

What profession/job did your parent(s) have while you were growing up?

My dad was a machinist and my mom stayed home until we were all grown, and then she got a job at the jewelry counter at K-Mart. She loved that job, and we got lots of great presents! For awhile mom had all of the daily newspapers delivered to our house where the boys would pick them up for their routes. For many years our house was crawling with boys, and even after they got older, the boys just kept hanging out. I'm sure the fact that that I have 3 very cute little sisters didn't hurt!


Recipe of the Week

(instead of your recipe for life what is it just for the week?)

To try to take one day at a time and to remember to be grateful for my blessings.

Memories:  These vintage pictures surfaced this month.  I just love looking at old pictures remembering how things were - especially when the pictures are of loved ones who are no longer with us.  I love seeing Grandpa and Grandma surrounded by family.  They loved being with family!  This made me smile.

We had a marvelous time!  So much so that Kim has decided that he wants to build our own axe-throwing lane in our backyard!  I believe t

Fun Day With Bubba

Image
Today Bubba and I had a great day! First we joined Ash and Tristan for a visit to the park. Bubba and Tristan ran and rolled and climbed and had all kinds of fun! Later, Kim and I had to run to Logan, so we decided that a quick trip to Willow Park was in order. Bubba was so excited to see all of the animals there. We saw turtles, geese, swans, cranes, peacocks, and deer. We watched an owl eating his dinner. We saw a couple of young antelope fighting - I think they were really just playing! We even saw a couple of wallabies! Of course, Bubba's favorite part was feeding the ducks! He got a little nervous if one got too close, but as long as they kept their distance, he had a blast throwing food to them. I'm sure that he just about wore himself out with all of the walking and running and playing. I know that I did!

Mom is Coming Home

Image
We just got word today that mom can come home from Rehab tomorrow morning – a week earlier than we had expected. Needless to say, mom is thrilled at the prospects of being home again, and dad is quite excited also. I have to admit, I have mixed feelings. Honestly, it has been very nice having mom in a place where I knew that they were taking very good care of her. The food there is fantastic, the workers are extremely pleasant and friendly, and her care was wonderful. She has gained an incredible amount of muscle strength through her two-a-day physical therapy sessions, and they are fanatical about making sure that her food and fluids are exactly what she needs. Consequently mom is actually in better overall health now than she has been in the last two years. It has been nice for me to have them watching over her continuously to make sure that she does what she is supposed to and also to make sure that she doesn’t cheat on her diet or fluid restrictions. It has been wonderful to take
