I say Frittata. I am still eating a Charcuterie from the derby party. Glad you are still enjoying it. Have you prepared the maple sausage yet?

LOL - I can't think of many worse places to camp out in front of than a truck rest stop or a Cracker Barrel!

Good morning all and Happy Monday,

QJB - So sorry your leg got to the point of halting everything you're doing. I'm happy to hear that a little rest had provided a lot of relief. I wish your pain dissipates and the leg returns to normal.

The weekend was pretty nice. I met a really nice Internet stranger for lunch and didn't get kidnapped. Mother's Day was a good time and my Mom loved it. My sister and I plied her with cards, tons of chocolate and baby back ribs. Her dog, Buddy, even got her a card.

Today, it is a choose my own adventure type of day. I have 2pm-6pm to focus on my current situation. This morning, I'm doing the bi-weekly money count for the club and bank deposit. I'll do some fellowship, go out to lunch with a friend, and form a plan for the rest of the day.

QOTD- It's usual Memorial Day propaganda for me; Rah rah, family and friends who served our country, BBQ, backyards, music, other people imbibing, having a good time, etc

B: Dannon Light and Fit Coconut Yogurt, Tangerine.

L: a few bites off a sub sandwich. I picked up a sub from a good Italian grocery over the weekend. The hot giardiniera is super spicy this time. I only can eat 1/4 of the sandwich before it gets too hot to continue to eat comfortably.

D: 3 ribs & Cole slaw.

I bet you could invent a king cake flavored cheesecake for your Mardi Gras theme!

king cake? Very popular on Mardis Gras. Otherwise, anything Cajun or Creole should work...

G'morning all!

QJB - another week of relaxation is what the Dr prescribes to take care of your leg.

Guys!!! I had the best weekend of my life. My kids surprised me by showing up for Mother's Day. I had no idea, but with their dad's help DD arrived on Fri afternoon and DS on Sat afternoon. I was on cloud 9 the whole weekend and don't think my feet touched the ground. DD is going back to DC this morning and DS is leaving later this afternoon. It was the best Mother's Day present they could give me. We also had a great Mother's Day brunch at the resort across the street. I'm still riding the high of my kids being home.

QOTD: my daughter was born on May 29, so her bday is also always around Memorial Day weekend. We always did big parties for her. Being near the beach our house was also party central for long weekend gatherings. Since Covid though those gatherings fizzled out. Not sure if any plans this year, we might go for a hike or something.
