Today (September 14, as I know I removed the date stamp from the blog!) is my mother’s birthday. She would have been 60 years old today. I can’t say these days are easy for me, but I will say that SO FAR I’ve been enjoying the memories I’ve dug up from the recesses of my mind. I’ve been looking at …

If I weren’t battling every creature known to man in my kitchen…er, having some household issues as of late, I would have taken pictures of all these suggestions but alas…it is what it is.
