July 2009!

Happy Summer and 4th of July!

Oh My Golly! My daughter is taking Drivers Ed. So after two drives, I picked her up and she’s got a pink slip that gives her permission to drive with me. Talk about freaking out. So she gets in the car in the drivers seat. I must say she does a really good job She could work on not a rolling stop to turn right and maybe stop a little sooner so I don’t get a whiplash at a red light. She’s confident and happy so that’s good but I think “how did this happen? She’s all grown up.” Time flies.
Fourth of July was always my favorite holiday growing up. My parents were both from Northern Minnesota. Every year we’d take a two-week vacation and drive through the U.P. 14 hours, 5 girls and a girl dog. Mom and Dad were Saints. The whole family would come, my mom had a huge family. We’d all go to the parade and than to my Aunt’s on the lake. All I know is there was the best food ever. Homemade Pasties (bite size), Patica Cake and Strudel. My Aunts made everything. Talk about eat, sleep, eat and sleep, that was a good day.
You know being brought up in a family of great cooks, it is still hard for me to buy already made food. I love to cook from scratch. I am glad I enjoy that. So this year try an old family recipe, light sparklers, go to a parade, let the kids get all the candy, relax and watch the fireworks. I think I will.

“R” Mindy had a little surgery. She is recovering well but going crazy. It has been “really quiet” at R-Club. Susan’s daughter graduated from high school. Great job on the open house Susan. Congrats to Kelsey! “R” Jerry Brown was surprised by a birthday party in June (his birthday is in July). It was fun to surprise him. I love that he was helping Sparky, who hosted the party, clean and get ready for it. Looking good Jerry! Happy Birthday to “R” Wilson family. “R” Gordon was 87 June 20^th.

Lucky me! My sister JoJo surprised me with a visit for a week. It was so nice. She loves to clean. She totally cleaned my kitchen, bedroom and garage. I swear she’s an angel. I’m so lucky to have 4 angel sisters.
