Beautiful mornings like today almost makes me glad I get to work early!
I tried out my Ninja blender on cauliflower for making cauliflower rice...
It did a great job...the cauliflower was very finely chopped just how I wanted it to be...Cauliflower rice is not Gary's favorite, but if I cook it with olives and capers he will eat it without complaining.
Dinner...
Grilled Lamp chops, cauliflower rice with onions, garlic, bacon, olives and capers, green beans and a salad.

Wednesday

This is what I'm currently reading...
This is playing in the Acura...
I've been wanting to stop the spread of the non-native elephant ears in our yard...so after mowing them down the twin brought over his tarp...hopefully this will work.
Yes that's a customer in his corvette in the air...
Elvin and Chaz trying to figure out why it won't start...it was the ignition switch.

Dinner...salad fixings...I like blue cheese and Gary likes cheddar...

Barbecue chicken, artichoke, potatoes, onions, garlic and Lima bean.
It's a good thing I love blue cheese because Stacy sent me home with half a one pound tub!

Flowers everywhere...well at least at Lowe's...

I drove a customer's car to the tire store we recommend for tires...one of our many services...
 Today we worked on my ex bosses car...
 Chaz giving her car a brake job.
Lately I've been reading on the benefits of crushing garlic as opposed to cutting the cloves...My mom and dad brought this wooden mortar and pestle from Puerto Rico...over there they have always crushed their garlic. I used it for many years then put it away for many years...looks like it's back to work.
 In Puerto Rice they add salt and other spices when crushing the garlic...
Dinner...

Flounder, yellow brown rice, okra, onions, celery, garlic and mushrooms...and salad
The pink sky was awesome tonight...

Happy Easter

Happy Easter from the grandchildren...

 We are enjoying the beautiful show the Clivia's are giving us for Easter...




 More pictures from our visit to Tampa for Addie's birthday...

Grandma and Papa bought Addie the book "The Day the Crayons Quit" by Drew Daywait. Grandma read the book to us.  It is one of the cutest children's book I've seen.
Addie loved her Bat-girl pajamas...Connor had to go put his superman pajamas...so they could save us from something...
 Superman flying...
Gary's first hamburger since...and he enjoyed every bite...

Dinner...
Grilled chicken, baked potato and broccoli.
It wasn't a beautiful Easter but we have so much to be thankful for...

 PRAISE THE LORD!

Happy Birthday Addison!

For Addie's fifth birthday her aunt Nancy treated her, Stacy, Grandma and BeBe to a tea luncheon.



Our little princess...taking it all in...
 Addie is enjoying watching the sparkler on top of tray ...

 The sandwiches were delicious...
This was my favorite sandwich...chicken salad on a croissant...

Aunt Nancy and Mommy...
 The grandmas...
The desert...Addie loved the chocolate (I ate the fruit that was on top)...The tiny Key lime pie was saved for Gary as it is his favorite.


Happy fifth birthday Addie...We all love you very much!!!
