I cooked a LOT yesterday. I even took time to pick a quart of cherries and make a pie, something I had not planned on doing. I made meat loaf, using four-and-a-half pounds of ground beef; I'm trying to use the ground beef from the steer, Meat Loaf, and make room for Sir Loin in the freezer.
All my grandchildren except my daughter's son, who works evenings, were here for supper. So was my sister. Because we don't all see my sister often, it was a special time.
That's my son, his daughter Amber, my sister, and my daughter's Natalie catching up on family news. One of my sister's grandsons is soon going to be married in Hawaii, and she'll be attending. And spending a whole week in Hawaii!
All eyes were focused on the great-granddaughter, Kammi. That child is a world of entertainment all by herself (that's the back of her head in the lower left-hand area).
And she's beautiful.
She loves my home-made peanut butter cookies. Of course, she's never seen a cookie she didn't like.
And nothing goes better with cookies than a cold drink of milk.
My sister and I posed for a picture as she was leaving.
And then she got in her big white car and drove away.
And granddaughter Lyndsay took a turn driving the John Deere.
Great day indeed.
Oh, and I have used the hand egg beater that a reader sent me at least four times daily since my guests arrived. Thanks, Vicki!
