Back to our Thursday trolley that I started writing about. BIG NEWS......we had our first robin sighting and red-winged blackbird sighting that day. The boyfriend's eagle eye spotted both birds first.

Last night's Venny soup supper was a hit. Four soups: Brocolli-cheese-ham, Wild Rice-Ham, Vegetable and Potato. The broccoli soup was very good, and the boyfriend said the wild rice was, too. The activity committee made the soups served with fresh bread, crackers, butter, grapes and fresh strawberries. Make-your-own sundaes for dessert. Of course, the choice of wines included. We squeezed more chairs around our large round table, so a bunch of us could visit and get in a few memories and laughs. Two naval officers shared bits from their time serving our country.
This morning the boyfriend is down in the shop cutting out the pieces for the birdhouse building on Tuesday afternoon. I'm working on my wall hanging, and have run into a snag. I've got some thinking to do.
Oh, and I've started reading Gadsby.....the book written without the letter 'e.' Omigod, what a challenge. One thing I'm noticing is how the story is all about the bones of the plot, without all the frilly flowery adjectives that dolly up a novel. This makes it faster paced and quite easy to follow. Another one of those experiences a person wonders.....how'd he do that?
It's a pretty Sunday here......a nippy 31 degrees and sunshine. Every day that the sun shines I think about my mom and daddy's song............
