When I think of my birthday, my mind instantly wanders to my mom’s light, fluffy angel food cake, smothered with home made whip & sweet fresh strawberries. This has been a birthday tradition for 30+years.
This weekend I just want to lay outside by the pool and soak in the sun and warmth. I would suspect I’m not alone here…but unfortunatly I’m going to have to wait another month. Come join me in July!
Have a wonderful weekend oxoxox

For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone”

My darlings, you planning any funny pranks for April Fool’s Day? When we were little, my Mom would replace our school lunch with dog bones…not so nice if your like me and every few hours you think about how good your next meal will taste. She thought it was endlessly hilarious. HaHaHa Mom…you just wait!

Hello my Loves!! I hope you all had a delightful weekend! As most of you know, Saturday was the first official day of spring, and we had plenty of sunshine in Seattle to celebrate. Kevin and I had a little 40th birthday celebration for Andre with some friends. Andre’s wife Carrie organized a the shin-dig. There were about 30 of us in all up at the casino. Every time we all get together I have so much fun – their such a great group of friends.

. . . blossoms and butterflies and open-toed shoes, champagne picnics and blowing kisses, sunshine on bare shoulders and new beginnings . . .

wishing you a happy first day of spring!

This title sums up my approach to dieting. I Eat, I Pray that I won’t get fat/fatter, than wash that thought down with a double scoop of haggen dasz. Just this week Kevin and I went to the store to statisfy my craving with a 1/2 gallon of Mocha Almond Fudge – 2 days later it was gone and I was the one responsible for it. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, namely that: I will be in a bathing suit in less than 2 months!
Yikes! Pray, pray quick!
So today is my reality check day. I want to enjoy my life/summer, and I’m pretty sure I won’t enjoy the feel of my thights flapping in the warm summer breeze.

A sweet little darling to this long but exciting week …
Happy week dear friends xx

If you’re anything like me, you make big plans for productive weekends, you lay down for a little nap, and before you know it…it’s Monday again! Sheesh!

This weekend like all others flew by. My old age must be sneaking up on me cause sometimes I can’t remember quite everything we did. However I do remember Saturday was amazing! We went to Magnuson Park and layed in sun by the shore and then went over to the University of Washington and walked on campus. All the cherry trees were in bloom and the campus was all aflutter with students.

We then headed back to our hood for some grub and a trip to the movies, Alice In Wonderland.

Weekends are for one thing…kicking off your heels/sneakers and enjoying the part of life that doesn’t have to take things too seriously!

I’m hoping to add a little playtime to my weekend as I catch up on my yesteryears hanging out with my 5 yr old nephew and 2 yr old niecey. And hopefully we get a few hours in the sunshine so we can check off some things I have planned.

I hope you all enjoy some playtime of your own.
xo, Sunny
