Happy Anniversary!!

Don't forget the pasty tassels!!

I was born on Easter Sunday...March 25, 1951. Easter hasn't/won't fall on 3/25 again until 2035. So it's never happened to me. It's been the 24th-26th lots of times but not the 25th. I always count Easter as my 'second birthday'.

Yes! Happy Birthday, peaches! I shall raise a glass or three in your honor.... Happy Easter everybody!

Oooooh......if only those scarves could talk.....

Not to worry Snap. He's only one of the guest hosts. His stint is up Fri. They've had Ken Jennings, Katie Couric, and now Oz (I'm not a fan either). Ken Jennings should get the gig IMHO. Very respectful of the legacy of Jeopardy & Alex and he's funny.

Product placement, my friend. Even back then.....

What is this 'margarine' of which you speak? Never heard of such a thing....

Amen, sister.

As promised..... This is boychild's favorite cake hands-down. Just plain , no icing. Ultimate Pound Cake 1 c butter (at room temp) 3 c sugar 3 c all-purpose flour 6 eggs 1/4 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp salt 1 c sour cream 2 tsp vanilla Get out your mixer, you're gonna need it! Cream butter and sugar till fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well between each. In another bowl mix flour, salt and soda. Add alternately with sour cream (some flour, some s cream, more flour...you get the gist) mixing well between each. Mix well and add vanilla. Bake in a bundt pan at 325 for 1 hr 15-20 min. Check with long skewer. Butter the pan and use sugar to coat....this works well on any cake. No ugly flour residue and it makes a wonderful crust. Got this recipe from the food editor at the local newspaper years ago. It's great on its own but it's a perfect starter for strawberry shortcake, a trifle, sundaes, with fruit. Just damn fine cake. Enjoy!

Oooh.....I got your cake right here. Recipe tomorrow.

No wonder I like you guys so much..... Great minds think alike ya know. 😉

Happy Birthday back SweetPea59! Aries rule!!!

Sad. She was a wonderful actress. Hell of a career.

Hells yeah! Everything is better with cheese.....

No worries! The par-tay has already commenced......

Very true.....it's all subjective.

I turn 70 years old tomorrow (yikes) and have heard it all. Takes a lot to offend me.......music-wise. 🙂

Yeah....same here. I first heard 6000.

Would love to try these. Could I use canned crab (I know...it's sacrilege)? Have a small tin in the pantry and puff pastry on hand..

Saw Laverne on CBS This Morning and the woman is fierce! What style....and the hats are to die for. Ya gotta check out Crowns sometime....a doc about church hats. Must see for all you fashionistas....

Consider it done!

We will......and peaches, your fantastic dip is always on the menu....

Today is Boychild's birthday! There were 5 boys born that day and the others were named Sean/Shawn or Patrick....he's Jason. The nurse told me when she was filling out the birth certificate. 🙂 He's coming down for the weekend (lives an hour away) and I'm making all his favorites. We'll spend the weekend playing games, eating and maybe a movie. Got a box with all the games we like and we draw at random. Good times......

I agree. Always takes me a few days to adjust.
