Happy Mother's Day

 Creative Writing 101

Once upon a time in a land far far away, there lived a devastatingly beautiful, middle aged, plus sized Queen. The queen had experienced a yummy lifetime of very fun (although not wise) food choices. So when the Queen's royal chickens returned to the castle to roost, it caused her to start making more "regal" food choices (and to submit to the dark art of exercise).

Unbeknownst to her, there were saboteurs all around pretending to be friends (or at least loyal subjects). Imagine her fright when she spotted this scarily horrific, fur covered creature skulking about. When the creature was queried about the reason for his presence, he testily denied any interest in the eggs, and huffily exclaimed, "Everyone knows I don't do strawberries!"

The End.

Self portrait. Rear view mirror. Moving car. I do all of my own stunts. Thank you and goodnight.

WHERE THE GROWN FOLKS AT ???

I am (clearing throat, taking deep breath . . .) 50 now, sometimes I am quite aware of it and sometimes I am not. I read lots of blogs and it seems that the fun bloggers are under 30. When I look at tutorial videos on Youtube, all of the ladies seem to be in their early 20's. I'm no "age-ist" (real word?) but where are the grown folks? It sorta hurts me that I can't seem to find my peer group. So I guess I'll just have to rep for my homies from the 70's. Click on this link: The Sylvers "Misdemeanor" ,
and if you don't know . . . you better ask somebody. Love M.



DOWNTOWN UPLAND

Molly's Souper

Upland, CA

Lucy the Dog

 I happened to glance down and I saw this adorable face looking up at me. How could I resist? Molly's is a pet friendly restaurant in a renovated house. The food is pretty typical (eggs, bacon, club sandwiches, fries, pancakes, etc.). I think they are only open  until 2 pm each day.

Forewarned is forearmed.

Southern California 

Tasting and Auction, Cal Poly Pomona

May 6, 2012

 

 It was all about the food for me. Ribs and Hot Link from Lucille's BBQ. Happy face. I believe money was being raised for a good cause???

 Peruvian food. Aji de Gallina, rice and some kind of lemony chicken salad. Happy face.

 No words.

 Dessert. 'Cuz I'm classy like that.

Happy face. I am not kidding, everything tasted good and I went to the event hungry. There was wine tasting also, but why waste your time with wine when you could be eating crab cakes?

This was a chicken wrap, salad, and delicious zucchini bread with sesame seeds. Yum! The square black bowl previously held Korean BBQ and I forgot to take the picture before I inhaled it.

 Auction

We had a really good time. Good weather, music, people watching, and food.
