NONNIE'S PHOTO A DAY, Day 32: Sweets for My Sweetness


his last birthday cake
sweet and oozing with chocolate
his preferred flavor!

Of course, none of us knew it would be his last birthday.  As you can see, I'm not known for my cake decorating. But I did make the cake from scratch and wrote the birthday greeting for him. He enjoyed having his family there to help him celebrate.

Oh what a sweet farewell... maybe every birthday cake should be prepared with such love.

Oh my gosh. I can't imagine. All those "lasts" ... small things really are the big things. I think all the time about the things I find annoying in the ones I love and live with, but if any of them were gone, it'd be the irritations I'd miss the most. So quickly they morph into sweet idiosyncrasies.

I love this. I'm so sorry for your loss, but happy for your beautiful memories.

Scratch cakes are the best. I always let my kids make and decorate their own (or at least, help me do it).

A doubly sweet memory ... and sincerest condolences. Bastet

I slathered on my gel I use to alleviate Fibromyalgia pain. Realizing that even that was not helping. Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o

Have humans sat here? Not recently, I think. Perhaps a snow couple rested for a while, and the shadowy remnants of them remain. more Cool Clicks
