Happy Saturday, everybody!
I've been out running all over town and country, getting ready for the big shindig tomorrow. Since Caitlyn will be going to college in Maine, we decided to have a Maine themed party for her with the traditional Maine picnic dinner, which is Lobster Rolls, chips, pickles, Whoopie Pies, and Blueberry Cobbler. We're also having hamburgers and hotdogs and the other usual BBQ stuff, too. So I had to run up Lancaster way to the bakery that Monica ordered the whoopie pies from, and that was quite a ways! I'll get the cobblers baked tomorrow, so they'll be fresh. Monica is on her way out here now, and she and Jake are going to pick up the tents and chairs and get them set up in the yard. The last count we got was to expect around 60 people. This is a combination birthday/graduation party for Caite, who will also be turning 18 tomorrow. Would you believe we're going to do this all over again for my niece who will be 18 the end of July? Are we nuts, or what?
Enjoy your day with your sister, Ruth!
Cyndi, I hope you take advantage of tomorrow and go to the coast. Have you ever been to Cape May Wildlife and Bird Sanctuary? It's one of my favorite things to do while we're at the shore. Good luck on finding rhubarb, it's scarce and expensive around here now that the season is over.
Natalie's Mom, I hope you got all your chores out of the way so you could enjoy some pool time today! Have a nice Father's Day tomorrow!
Schmoodle, I hope your kids get to feeling better! Maggie had a fever and sore throat a few days ago, and we thought for sure she was coming down with strep, but it seems to have cleared up by itself. They're having lawn chair movie night at our park this evening, too, they're showing "Over the Hedge", but we're going to skip it since we've already seen it. Have a good time and I hope you don't get rained on!
Pearlrose, the parade and rodeo sound like a nice way to spend a Saturday, enjoy!
hmacneil, I hope you find some goodies at the farmer's market this afternoon! For a yummy smoothie, I like to blend together some greek yogurt, berries, flaxmeal, and sf chocolate syrup. It's delicious, and would be good with the addition of protein powder, too.
Well, my break time is about over. Monica wants me to run to Wegman's and BJ's with her as soon and they finish setting up the tents.
Bye for now!
