When we go to the grocery store tomorrow I'm going to have a talk with our friend, John. He told me after our last snow we weren't getting any more and if we ddid I could give him a good "talking to." It rained this evening and now the snow is coming down pretty hard and fast! Are we ever going to see spring? We had spring-like temps for three days and now it's winter again.
We had a quiet day at home. Instead of the traditional Easter dinner I fixed some short ribs with my special sauce. I don't use regular BBQ sauce as it's too spicy for us now. The sauce I make is a bit sweeter and I use it for a lot of different meats; very versatile. And I made some Baked Mac and Cheese. I've been wanting to do that for a very long time. I usually just fix it in a pan on top of the range and let it go at that. Baking it is sooo much better! Fixed Brussels Spouts with butter. That's the way Papa likes them. And I made a small Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting, as well. Even though, I made half-batches of everything we still have plenty of let-overs!
Papa is still feeling pretty tough. Actually we both have been feeling that way. We going through a lot of pain, probably from our Fibromyalgia, and Papa has a cold from laying on the ground the other day., too. It doesn't take much for him to catch cold. Will need to keep a close eye on him since he's susceptible to pneumonia. (Hey, I spelled that right according to my spell-checker!) Papa's been doing a lot of resting.
Papa's waiting for me to watch TV with him again so I'd better get out of here. Hope y'all had a wonderful Easter. Take care and have a good night.
Much Love, Junie & Papa Allen
