NATIONAL TALK LIKE A PIRATE DAY

Well leave it to Eileen Dickey to find an ocassion to have fun. Little did we know that it was a holiday today. But, a few of us that had been informed gathered at the Dickeys to celebrate and talk like Pirates.
We feasted on Pirate Pie, Shark bites, Seaweed salad, Pigeon legs, Bilge rat stew, Hard tack and more. All went away from the table completely satisfied.
Don and my art work was thanks to our wonderfully talented son in law Eric.
A fun time was had and we wonder which holiday we will celebrate next. I'm sure Eileen will keep us posted.

Roses Everywhere

Well I waited impatiently at work today worrying about IF the roses would come. I had ordered them from two different places on line and they are overnight shipped from South America straight to your doorstep. Just as I was getting ready to make a call or do something I turned around and there he was Mr. FedEx himself. Two big long boxes, one with Midnight black roses and one with Movie Star Orange roses. 300 in all. So then the problem is what to do with them. You don't want them to open up to much so you can't keep them in a warm temp, but they all need to start drinking to pretty up so you have to cut each stem under water so no air gets sucked up the stem. They are in the garage tonight, we just finished snipping the ends and de-leafing and de-thorning them. Not to bad it's only eleven o'clock!!
Tomorrow I meet my friend Kathye and we head out to another Kathy's and get greenery for the vases. The vases go on the tables and will consist mostly of greenery and a few (3) roses. Friday the plan is to make all the bouquets and bouts, pack up all the supplies and head to Olympia for set up and rehearsal with a pizza party out on the lawn.
I really feel like things are going along okay and that maybe it will all come together in the end. I really am looking forward to taking off the next week and relaxing in eastern Washington.
I am adding a few pictures this time. A few of tonight's rose party and a couple of just fun "green Juice" pictures. I love my new juicer. I put all kinds of greens and stuff in my juice. The one picture is my "green" juice and Ezekiel 4:9 bread with avocado squished on top, YUM
Well I am going to go soak in an Epsom salt bath to hopefully help my aching muscles.
TATA for now.
