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!

We discovered this gate into the parking garage at the new QFC in Ballard. The artwork fits nicely into Ballard. I also discovered that QFC has a great selection of cheese.

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!

We joined Sunny’s Mom Laurie and the dogs for a walk along the beach at the Golden Gardens park in Seattle. Sail boats and a wrecked boat.

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.

Sunny and I watched a sunset over the marina. I threw in a photo of Sunny’s car for fun.

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