Yes, it's Wednesday the middle of the week and in only two days time we will be welcoming April, the year is flying by! We've enjoyed some lovely days during the month of March, celebrating family birthdays and of course last weekend, Sunday was Mothers Day.
I was given some lovely cards and gifts but more importantly it was the time and freedom to see and hug our wonderful family. It was joy to play the 'old fashioned' board games like draughts, snakes and ladders and Ludo. At one point a pack of cards was found and 'Go Fish' was played ... not a computer game or phone in sight, just the joy of having lots of fun and laughter together. Yes, more happy memories were made, this Grandma and Grandad had big happy smiles on our faces 😊😃😊😃
I wonder have you a favourite vegetable?
Whatever you have planned today, I wish you a good one.
All the best Jan
It sounds like you had a wonderful Mother's Day. As for favourite vegetables, there's so many at the top of my list, savoy cabbage, kale, parsnips, tenderstem broccoli amongst others.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jan. Yes we have enjoyed some gorgeous weather over the last few days but with April round the corner I think it's going to be more soups and casseroles than salads with the drop in temperature.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteI like a lot of vegetables but a good (and preferably home grown) tomato is right up there with my favourites.
Happy Wednesday to you! My favorite veggies are roasted peppers with onions.
ReplyDeleteTake care, enjoy your day!
Green beans and tomatoes. Yes, I know that is two.
ReplyDeleteI thought I left this once--green beans and tomatoes.
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday Jan & Eddie, glad you both enjoyed Mother's Day xx
ReplyDelete...thanks for the cheery tulips.
ReplyDeleteLorelei loves games on her phone, but she loves to play board games or even just hangman if someone will play with her.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I think this is the first time I have replied to this. I have had a very busy day. Sadly and bad for my health I spent three hours driving! On the flip side I have spent the day with my four year old granddaughter. She had ballet lessons this morning, then we went to sushi for lunch and finally home to cook something for her to take home. In between this little one has been very good when she needed to be good and after more days of rain she was just delighted to be outside exploring and running. We live in Southeast Queensland, Australia the last few weeks have been wet, wet and more wet. Fortunately no flooding for us but is is tiresome to be indoors when you want to be outside. Mean while granny is worn out.
ReplyDeleteVery pleasingly this little failure to thrive child has been eating all day. Talk about couldn't keep up an thinking she must be going through a growth spurt. The most unusual food of the day was her eating the tobeki fish eggs at the sushi shop. We had to buy more milk late today.
Happy Wednesday to you too, I'm glad you enjoyed your Mothers Day it sounds like fun. I would say that my favourite vegetable is spinach you can put it in anything.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a nice Mother's Day with your family. I'm not a huge fan of vegetables. I eat them because one has to, but not a big fan.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you had a wonderful birthday celebration -- especially wit those hugs! That's the best gift of all, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteFave veg? Probably corn. Or red peppers!
Happy wednesday !
ReplyDeleteWelcome April and Happy Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the good wishes for today. My favorite veggie is spinach, which I eat practically every day. For other veggies, I like most of them roasted, it makes them taste so much better, I think.
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday to you too.
ReplyDeleteWith regards to vegetables, we've just made lasagna with artichoke, mushrooms, and asparagus. Delicious! It's better that lasagna with meat.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the rest of this week!
So glad you enjoyed your Mother's Day, Jan. That's why I don't have a cell phone. No texting or game playing on MY phone! Sounds like the perfect day for you two.
ReplyDeleteYou don't have to ask me what veggies I like. The only one I don't like is Okra that has been boiled in gumbo. Fried okra is fine. I love the fresh veggies best. You have to cook potatoes, etc, so if I can eat something without cooking it, I am a happy camper.
Happy Wednesday.
Hi Jan! :) We love board games and card games here. We just got a few trivia games, The Andy Griffith Show and The Three Stooges, can't wait to play them! I think my favourite veggie is cauliflower! ☺
ReplyDeleteI forgot it was Wednesday so thanks for the reminder...I love red bell and just purchased a plant to grow my own this summer...
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday!
Favourite veggies: cauliflower, carrots, peas, sprouts.
ReplyDeleteIn card games I tend to go for poker, crazy eights, and war.
Hi, Jan! It sounds like you had a really wonderful time. Old fashioned board games are the best. My kids still enjoy them. Next time I visit them, we'll have to get a game out and enjoy the time together. Happy Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteMe alegra que lo hayas pasado b ien y suerte en las compras. Te mando un beso.
ReplyDeletePotatoes are my favourite.
ReplyDeleteHaven't played card games with others for a very long time.
Playing games keep you young! Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteNice family time with game playing. Our Mother's day here is in May.
ReplyDeleteThe year is just flying...almost April!
Have a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteBelated Mother's Day geetings, Jan, and how wonderful to gather with family and play games face-to-face. It sounds like a wonderful celebration for you! We also enjoy vegetables and favorites include red peppers, also yellow and orange, asparagus, cauliflowe, broccoli and zucchini. We also enjoy spaghetti and acorn squashes.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful that you got together with family and even better to hear no phones ruined the day.xxx
ReplyDeleteJan - belated Mother's Day (and Grandmother's Day?)! Glad you enjoyed quality family time. I think I would fit right in - I adore playing board games! Have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteSo good to hear you enjoyed such a lovely Mother's day with your family!!
ReplyDeleteI would have to say that spinach salads are my favorite!
Me alegra que hayas estado feliz. También te deseo un feliz mes de abril. Besos.
