Good morning Rounder's and a Happy Easter to you. Do you realize it's almost the month of May? Wow! Where does the time go? Before you know it all the Snow Birds will be gone and the traffic will not be so bad and there will be food left on the shelves at Aldi's, and there will not be long lines of folks out the doors at restaurants. Hurrah!
My back hurts this morning and I feel like I've been run over by something. That's because I sat in one of those chairs on the Lanai and read my book. I finished it. Oh, it was a page turner and I highly recommend it for all but Aunt Maye. Ken Follet, Jackdaws.
The cheesecakes were sold out at Aldi's by the time I got over to that cooler, so I'm going to make my own. It's a box mix, Chocolate and they just got these in about 2 wks ago. They used to sell those box mixes back in the 80's. I know it won't be super delicious because I've had the real thing, but it will be dessert. I was going to make a Peanut Butter pie with chocolate topping, but that would be too rich, too much sugar and last too long. This way we get to indulge, but temptation will not last long.
I am happy to say that I spotted my first Celosia plant coming up between some of the brick pavers. I should have plenty of those beautiful plants coming up this year cuz I let them go to seed in the garden last year. They should be coming up in the front and back gardens. I have not seen any Coleus coming up yet, but I'm hoping some of them will sprout.
Ok, that's about it for me. I'm making Spiral Sliced Ham, Grilled Zucchini, Mashed Red Potatoes, (Florida grown), and rolls. Oh, and the Chocolate Cheesecake for dessert with a cup of Columbian Coffee. Sweet! No eggs to color, hide, or put prize money in. Thank the good Lord that I don't have to do that anymore. I feel old today. Peace & Plenty.
