Another Wonderful Day

Another lovely afternoon was spent with my daughter and granddaughters. It always goes by so quickly!! She liked the plates and cups I brought her and I got to see new pictures, and of course got to bring some home of the granddaughters. They're getting older, much too fast!! Of course they are beautiful!!! The girls and I played the game of "Life" which was fun. Helped with the last bit of dinner preparations and and then shared a wonderful dinner of "ribs" and salad, plus other things. My daughter is an excellent cook!! Yum, everything tasted quite yummy!!! She made this really yummy dip that was called "Georgia Caviar" made with black-eyed peas, and other ingredients. It was soooooo yummy!! Brought the recipe home to make myself. :-) I think it could be used as a salad also. Quite addicting!!!! My oldest granddaughter took an art class over the summer, and she showed me her art that she had done at that time, quite good!! I hope she goes to an art school after high school and expands her talent. She gave me my choice of some of her work. I intend to get it framed and put on my walls here. I am amazed at what she does. I hope that she knows she is good, and pursues her dream. I only wish I was half as good at drawing things!! My son does great art work too. I wondeer where they get their talent, it seems to have skipped me!! Drat!!!!!!! With all the hard classes to prepare for college they seem to have little time to do artful things, hopefully they will not suck all that creativity from them while preparing them for life!!!!!!!!! I know that my grandson stopped drawing at an early age, as he said that they only wanted everyone to do the same way in everything, nothing different and he quit doing his art work!!!!!! Which made me very sad. He is now doing more in his twenties. Yea!!!! Back to my day. A nice one that I can tuck into my memories to savor yet another time in the future. Antique Rose
