……began with my favorite thing!  Sunday morning with Sandie Girl!

Oh my goodness, what’s going on you may ask!  Well, Sandie & I are both May Babies and love to celebrate that fact together.  Looks like the fun has begun….

Happiness all the way around!

I had seen the blankie Sandie had made for baby  Noah and in my subtle way…….O.K., I said I wanted one!  This is truly a labor of love …

Awwwwww…………….

Sandie selected the most delightful patterns for me….Butterflies of love!

O.K. Sandie Girl…It’s your turn.  I see that you have a BIG box too!IMG 8570

Here’s the story behind the story.  Sandie is a true foodie and the only person I know who is courageous enough to consistently try out NEW recipes for dinner guests.  I mean, who is that brave???  You already  know I’m becoming a regular at Pirch.  I love their motto…’Live Joyfully’!  

Anyway, besides appliances they also have a lovely gift section and I spotted this book…’Salt Block Cooking’ along with a Himalayan Salt Block.  This is a precious pink mineral from the ancient hills in Pakistan’s Punjab provence….an Iron Chef panache if there ever was one!  How perfect for the culinary adventurous Sandie Girl!

But wait…..there’s more!  With this gift you are also entitled to a FREE ‘cooking with a salt block’ class at Pirch.” Are you serious says she?”

Well, after all the excitement had settled down we did the same and enjoyed coffee with the treats of sweet rolls and fruit from Whole Foods Sandie had so thoughtfully brought.

No Kita, you can’t go home with Sandie……

Shortly after Sandie left Sweet Amy came by for Mother’s Day with the most exquisite floral arrangement I have ever seen……

You’re looking at a Garden of Love!

The terrarium dome contains a fairyland……..and look at the beautiful butterflies……

These beautiful roses were for mom….it’s Wednesday and they’re still beautiful….I suspect they will last at least a week as Amy always selects the freshest flowers at the Flower Mart!

Nikka loves the jewels Amy puts on the roses……

Happy Mother’s Day mom!

Good thing there’s Gourmet 88 delivery or we’d probably starve!

Sooooooo good!IMG 8654

Dessert is usually fruit and ice-cream….IMG 8656

Before we settle in with popcorn to watch TV Kita has to dance with Emma…..

She was cordoned off for most of the evening…..wonder why!

May you have a playful week!
