It's a gorgeous, summery day today and everything seems to be blossoming. We've started barbecuing since yesterday. I heard the McDonald's at the mall will be undergoing renovations to the tune of $100,000. I think all the McDonald's are doing this as there is this other one where I noticed a tasteful new fireplace complete with glass mosaic tile surround. I suppose each franchise owner has to pay for their own renovations? The good news is they have started serving their delicious iced coffees again.
I picked up a giant Mother's Day card with sound for M's mother. A shop assistant helped me choose it, as I just tend to go for the dry, unsentimental stuff. She likes big, flamboyant, expensive cards so I think it will go over well.

Mothers Day cards - I am just not a card person. They cost a fortune too. No, I much prefer the gift, ha ha!!!
Man, I've barbecued in December! In 20 degree weather! With a foot of snow on the ground! LOL!
But I'm hard-core that way. :)
Happy Mothers Day, Christine!
Oh, too bad about Matt Moffitt. But I like his comeback. I hope he gets a job out of it!
That middle background singer is too funny.
Yes, I'm not sure what to think of coffee shop style McDonald's as the food just still doesn't cut it for me unless I'm craving their greasy FF or thick milkshakes.
And yes, I suspect the franchise owner has to pay but get some sort of discount or assistance from HQ.
Lilly, gifts here too!
Thanks, Mr Bill, you can bbq for the wife on Sunday!
Japra, Moffitt should apply for a musical theatre job, I think.
Jammmie, come to think of it, the regulars at McD's seem to be dozens of retired folk that go there to socialize over free coffee refills, hardly big spenders to justify the fancy renovations!
