Happy Saturdays


This day could not have been better!  We started off by heading to the farmers market in our neighborhood to meet up with the cousins.  We normally would have found a soft place on the grass and soaked up the sun but we were on a mission for some nearby food at Cana.  Two words............... Cuban Sandwich (roasted pork, two slices of ham, melted cheese, sliced pickle all on a mojo slathered, toasty roll).  My girl had the picadillo empanadas, as usual, delicious!  After lunch istwas 5 o'clock on the other coast, so it seemed that heading to the Heart and Dagger was an appropriate place to take our caravan of family and friends that had grown to an octet.  But what would a relaxing afternoon on  the back patio of said Saloon be without a little sweet and savory kettle corn?  Snacks and a Tallboy to finish off the afternoon was just what the doctor ordered for this teacher on her first day of Thanksgiving break.  I am thankful for friends, family, local farmers, Cubans, popcorn, and $4.00 tall cans.

Living thankfully,

Friends

So many people are under the impression that having a huge friends list on a social network or hundreds of numbers in the contact list of you Iphone is the mark of a full life.  I respectfully disagree.  This isn't a numbers game.  If you have 100 "friends", I hope that they are all true and real people that appreciate you for the gifts you have and struggles that challenge you daily.  Take time to be one of these people and to seek out others like you.

Just some thoughts........
