My honey did not disappoint! He even got my favorite diet cherry Dr. Pepper..I know, diet soda with all that chocolate doesn't make sense...but there you have it! He said this ought to last me a couple of months...he's so funny!
Just a little memory from 2023 and what gifts I got today.. FIY, I got him a card and cooked him a steal dinner!
Had lunch with my Red Hat sisters today at Village Garden. Of course, it was a Valentine's Day theme. We played games and each got a Valentine and heart sucker. We visited and laughed and it was a great time! Some things I learned today about Valentine's Day: 58 million pounds of candy are bought every year for Valentine's day, Valentine's Day was first declared on February 14, 496 AD and the average person spends $131.00 on Valentine's day..that is all!
Had a delicious root beer float at Country Creek Treasures yesterday from Kristy’s Kafe of Salem IL Happy Friday the 13th!
Keto crustless pizza casserole....it was good, needed more sauce, pepperoni and cheese, but still good!
I don't mean to drive you nuts with these deer pictures, but there were over 150 photos from the trail cam in just a couple of days. We saw at least 3 bucks out with the does. That is not something we see everyday. We have oak trees and they have been eating the acorns, even digging them up from under the snow...one buck was curious about the camera, it lets off a soft orange color, but it is not supposed to bother the animals..
I went to a class at Country Creek Treasures (Salem, IL) today on making Elderberry syrup which is used for many health purposes, as many of you may know. It was fun! We learned a lot, had Andrea's special herbal tea and I met some lovely fun ladies. Then Bill and I went to lunch at Chuck's Place, it was packed as usual, but enjoyed our food! It's been a nice day and I 'm glad the snow is melting! (I am not in any of these photos, I was having too much fun to bother).
A few photos from our trail cam we mounted the other day in our backyard. There were lots of squirrels and birds, but it was nice to see these ladies and one young buck..
The moon on the snow early this morning...through 2 panes of glass and with my cell phone...but still thought it was beautiful.
