Progressive Dinner

I was planning for 8, then the progressive dinner committee asked if I cuold take 10, then, at the last minute, I mean... as they were filing in the door... there were 12. So I put 4 in the kitchen nook, sliced some chicken breasts in half, and made sure Gary and I didn't take dessert, but it was a wonderful evening, I always say.. the more the merrier... such good company and it was the first time I've used my mother's beautful English Franciscan Desert Rose dishes, given to me after Dad's funeral. Love love them.

The White Rose Mystery

So pretty... The doorbell rang and nobody was there, but look what I found on my front porch last Sunday night. Someone needs to confess..... which darling neighborhood student or ward youth gave me this? We had just gotten home that afternoon from church. I spoke in Sacrament Meeting on Mother's Day. I wish I could give this pretty flower to my mother. I sure miss her. Father's Day is going to be really hard for me this year.
