{Hello friends}

  Hoping this finds my sister bloggers doing well on this windy Sunday afternoon. Yep, we've got a little wind howling around here and a tad cool but I am enjoying a lazy afternoon. My Sunday lunch crowd (my family) have left for the day so I am kicked back. Sunday menu today consisted of: Chicken and dressing Giblet gravy Italian green beans with ham Mac & Cheese Homemade chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting and chocolate ganache.  Yep, they are little spoiled at Nana's house. I am not a huge fan of cakes with icing but it must have been good as one of the grands had two slices.  These gals and I have been friends for more years than I remember and since we've all retired within a few months apart in retirement and age (dating back to 4th grade in school) we try to get together once every 4-6 weeks. We always do something extra for our birthdays but was a tad late celebrating mine this year together due to other appointments that was a must. We always have a gr...

{Honest Reviews}

  I thought I would give a few honest reviews on several items that I have ordered as of late. I love when those of you share your reviews and ideas so wanted to share mine with you in this post.   I am always very skeptical about companies I've never heard of and I read lots of reviews. I decided to order a few things from this company called Shein. CHEAP prices for sure! The items I ordered arrived within 7 days. Actually they arrived sooner than I expected but I didn't order anything that I needed right away and honestly, I really just wanted to check the company out for myself. Everything came in one package and each item was wrapped separately inside the package. I ordered the anklets for the grandgirls and they were very cute and colorful. They loved them. The clothing I ordered was cute but cheaply made but then again, their stuff is cheap. The material was really thin. The old saying goes "You get what you pay for". However, I honestly love the cute orange su...

{Let June Begin}

  It's Sunday afternoon and my tribe has left after a wonderful and breezy afternoon. The youngest two grands made friends with a baby bird today and was so sad when they had to let it go.  We attended a dance recital for these two littles. They both done so good. It was so bright outside and we were all squinting in pictures. The girls had a fan club for sure. Marty and I are blessed that our family always supports one another. Just BLESSED y'all. Just blessed! Marty enjoys coffee cakes and breads with his morning coffee on his way to work so I baked a yummy cranberry & orange coffee cake with drizzled icing. It smelled amazing baking. I think I might have a slice in the morning. LOL! The month of May was National Physical Fitness & Sports month so we ladies finished up strong. We added extra workouts to our yoga classes in different areas and well, let me just say, "I found a few muscles that I didn't know I had". LOL! My focus board for June is so fitti...
