Babies, Someone's dream is real, Not a keeper

August 1, 1981
1. Out of the blue, Steve emailed me our wedding picture. He wrote, "Young babies". Yes we were.
2. Our neighbor took me to his current landscape project that is years in the making. Boxwood- bordered beds, symmetry and sculpture everywhere, perimeters of stately shade trees. Oh, here I go dreaming again...
3. Daughter #4 always thanks me for dinner and tells me it was good. Tonight, I made something new which none of us cared for very much. As I got up from the table, I announced that I didn't like the dinner and no one better thank me. With relief, she happily added that she didn't like it either.

  1. I like that he wore white, too. :)

    Now I'm curious what you made that you didn't like! So that I won't make it.

  2. Lynn- they were 'Spicy Meatballs' from a back issue of Everyday Food. Ground beef seasoned with coriander, cumin, cayenne,cinnamon, scallions and egg. It had a middle eastern flavor and they weren't bad, but just not something we liked.

  3. That is funny about dinner. You and your husband make a nice couple. I like his long hair!

  5. Sweet photo of young babies! Sweet he sent it to you, too. Love, love your dress and Steve's matching outfit. I think this must be the best 1981 wedding photo I've ever seen. :)

  6. What a sweet picture of you two. Sorry you didn't like the meatballs. I find I don't really care for middle eastern flavours myself! xxoo
