In honor of Mother's Day, here's an oldie, from way back in 2008, after we had been out to play golf, and mom was anticipating a round of monopoly, followed by a Chris-made dinner.
Happy Mother's Day Angie! In my mind we are having a re-do of this exact day in your honor. I have not decided for sure what we are going to have for dessert though. If you have a request, send me a sign. For example, cause a cookbook to fall off the shelf, and land on the floor open to the page of the thing you are craving. Like the time you called me and said "I need some peanut butter cookies real-real bad".
And while I am at it. Brother sent this classic around today. It's from 1969, Shaw Air Force Base, South Carolina. Lord, what a crew. At least I wasn't the one wearing brown socks with brown loafers and shorts.
P.S. I still have that big glass float/ball. Which of you is a macrame/knot tying expert who knows how to remake a holder for it?
So wonderful to see Angie, you have addedher to my heart space for special Moms.

P.s. - there are tutorials on youtube you could use for macrame hangers for your ball!
