Four items for today:
1. I am very very interested in the goings on of the robins and their eggs in my bathroom window. I have been reading about them online. We now have fours beautiful eggs. A mother lays one eggs everyday for three to five days. The daddy bird stays with the mama and helps with the babies. The eggs will hatch in about 14 days from when the first egg was laid. I new baby will be born each day. I am excited to see this! I have been trying to analyze my bird fear. I am scared of their eyes, their feathers and the fact that they flutter around and you never know where they may land. I am being very brave with our house guest. I know that there is glass in between. I am trying to be mature.
2. Thank you for the birthday wishes on mine and Kelly's blog. I still can't get over my wonderful party!!!!!
3. Thank you for the input about my little toe walker. Some of you that I wanted to respond to, have a private blog. But I love knowing that we are not alone in this.
4. Someone left a comment last week saying I was the "kiss of death on foods" AMEN!!!!!!!!!! Here are two recent examples for you:
Last Summer I found "Margaret Holmes" brand canned vegetables at our local Walmart. I have gone nuts over her squash. It is so good and tastes like fresh squash and sweet onions. I have told friends about it and they have liked it. You know what I am going to say! Yes......... NO LONGER AVAILABLE. Of course....of course!!
Last night Steve told me that he was gonna to get my birthday cake from Sam's. A couple of years ago, I discovered in their bakery a WONDERFUL, layered chocolate cake with tons of rich icing. Steve called last night from Sam's and said he could not find it. He said he would ask someone. A few minutes later he called back and told me he had really bad news. YES......they told him they no longer make that cake. I threw a hissy fit and said, "Tell her of course they DON"T!!!! Because it was the best cake they have ever had and I LOVED it!!!!!!!"
Please don't tell me about a food or item that you like! If I go crazy over it and brag about it, it will be gone forever-off the shelf, off the menu!!!!!!
I told Steve to just forget the cake. The ones Kelly had for me were FABULOUS. Last night I was in the kitchen and just started eating the cakes out of the box, even using my fingers. My cuticles looked like a mechanic's because of all the black icing.
Hope your weekend is a good one!

The company that makes Margaret Holmes canned goods is a big, big client of mine. In fact, the CEO just called me a few minutes ago! I'll be sure to inquire about your squash!
Happy Weekend!
I don't remember commenting before but I LOVE YOUR BLOG!!! You are so funny and I love your stories. I also have an Emily and she is a mess. You have a beautiful family.
1. Chicken tetrazini - replaced the delicious cream sauce with some bland thin sauce that soaks I have the noodles so fast I thought they had left the sauce off
2. Pasta salad changed little noodles to big fat noodles
3. Grilled chicken panini changed from real grilled chicken to some sliced deli no taste crap.

We plant a lot of vegetables, haven't bought canned veggies in a long time, if we do buy veggies they're mostly fresh ones or frozen ones or in glass jars.
