    A lovely day.....

    Today is one of the best and prettiest days I have lived in a long time.  The weather has been great today.  I have felt GREAT today for the first time in a long time.  Hubby and I have just been hanging out together.  He took me for breakfast, we took Piper to the vet and got her shots, then we put her up and headed out to the Lavender Festival in a small town just south of us.  A couple from this area did much study and research and found that Lavender grows just as well here as it does in France.  The smell of the fresh growing lavender was lovely.  They also have a winery as well.  So people were buying lots of lavender and lavender products and lots of wine.  After that, we went to one of our new fave restaurants and had a late lunch.  Now, we are just kicking back at home.

    Last night we went to a couples Pampered Chef party that our daughter threw.  It was a nice evening.  I love Pampered Chef and have TONS of it which I still can't use right now, but I am NOT going into that.  One of the things the PC rep prepared as part of the show was a ginger/lemontini.  It was heavenly.  It had citrus vodka in it, but I drank it any way.  You put a scoop of mixed flavors of sherbet in the glass then poured the "tini" over it.  Yum yum!!  I bought several of the new items PC had to offer.  I have had such good luck with everything I have ever bought from them, so why not buy more??

    Oh, and I met "Adonis" last night.  Seriously.  There were a number of couples at this party and one of them was a guy named Adonis.  Who in the heck names their kid Adonis??  To his credit, the guy wore the name well.  At first I thought maybe the guys were teasing when they called him that, but when we had to go around and give our names for the PC rep, sure enough, his name was Adonis.  He was there with his petite and very cute wife.  I could NOT tell you what HER name was though.  I am gonna have to ask our kids where they came to befriend Adonis.  Inquiring minds must know!!

    On Monday night, I got to have dinner with several of my sorority sisters from my college days.  It was quite fun to see how everyone was doing and to kind of catch up on each other's lives.

    Well, I hope ALL my blog buddies are having a lovely weekend.  Thanks so much for all your sweet comments lately!!  You all are just the BEST!!

    Hugs to you!

    The only Adonis I've known used that as his stripper name.
    One of the things I love about living here is there is almost always something in bloom and the air always smells wonderful - maybe it's just that since moving here I haven't needed any decongestants or steroid sprays. Once we get our own place again I want to gradually build some herb gardens.
    I have to agree with you on Pampered Chef. My sister hooked me up with a special deal on a teflon set 10 years ago and while I use them often, you wouldn't know it by the wear and tear on the pans.

    So glad to hear you are feeling better, I was a little concern for you. Adonis huh? Never heard that one before. I would give anything to meet you like I did Beth. Someday, somewhere, in a campground? who knows it is possible. Take care and you too have a great week. Hugs, Pat

    Yippie Skippy for having a great Saturday! I am so happy that it was nice weather, you were feeling better and you got to get out and do something so fun. A lavender festival sounds right up my alley!

    I love PC parties. I would love to buy more of their stuff, but I just can't swallow the costs of some of it all. YIKES! I'm very frugal though. I don't spend money and I don't blow money very easily.

    How great that you got to spend some time with your sorority sisters from college. That does sound fun! That's awesome that you guys keep in such good contact.

    I think I could enjoy drinking that drink while staring at an Adonis...

    That party sounds like it was fun! Adonis...did you take pictures? I might have. Secretly, of course. I love Pampered Chef parties. Although it is expensive, they have such neat stuff. I wish one of my friends or my daughter's friends would have one. I don't want to because it means cleaning and having a kitchen. LOL. I'm in the same boat as you are. But we love them, don't we?

    Glad you had a good week. You cheered me up!
