Aspirin pill fob

 

A few days after we enjoyed that special thank you dinner from husband M's friends, he was at lunch with this friend and some other guys they know.  The wife sent a bunch of these pill fobs for the guys, they contain an aspirin for heart attacks.  I suppose you can attach it to your car keys or whatever.

It was a thoughtful token.

Thoughtful Card and a Dinner Treat

thoughtful card

 

sweet potato soup

chicken

unsweetened dried mango

Husband M's good friend had suffered a stroke back in August.  His wife had heard about my broken shoulder which happened around the same time.  Anyway I think they were under the impression I am still healing and they wanted to bring us a home cooked dinner to thank us for our kindness at the time of his accident.  They had really appreciated our card and daughter L's healthy home made muffins. In fact they were so hungry in the hospital they gobbled all the muffins. 

So at the end of November, they brought over some delicious (gingery) sweet potato soup, chicken, sticky rice, crackers, cookies, and these unsweetened dried mangos that we really liked.  Apparently a family member makes and markets these at Whole Foods and other markets.  We will get more of these for sure. Oh and I received a lovely get well card pictured above.

What a great start it was to the Christmas season!

Sunday Smiles - Apples

 

My friend S dropped off a bag of red delicious apples from her sister's farm a few weeks ago.  It is the time of year where they have an abundance of fresh apples, they make a lot of apple pies too.  Some of these apples are smaller, maybe slightly scarred, not good for selling but totally fine for us!

The 6th month Birthday

 Daughter L made this watermelon cake to celebrate Grandson C's 6th month birthday a few weeks ago. I love the idea of a healthy cake. C loved eating the watermelon.

Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Conifer Trees and Steak

Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date's Conifer Trees art theme.

 This is my ACEO (3 1/2" x 3 1/2") in acrylic on cardstock. 

For the Dinner Date, T-bone steaks were on sale so here is mine.  I like it cooked medium how about you?  We cut a piece off for Grandson C and didn't use any salt and pepper or salty sauces on his and he liked this cut of meat.  Flank steak had not been a success.
