Good Living

I have had a great weekend. The weather was perfect. I thoroughly enjoyed Gigi’s company. We laughed a lot.

I spent two days in the yard cutting grass and planting flowers in shorts and flip flops. I hope I will do the same next weekend.

Cedie and I took our Sunday morning drive in The Beast. We both love that Jeep.

Now I am relaxing, watching PGA golf in high definition, and sipping a glass of Indaba South African Merlot. South African wines are very different in taste, but good. Indaba plows back a portion of every bottle sold into educating locals on how to raise grapes and make wine.

Can you believe in another continent, across the Atlantic, that they can grow grapes, make wine, age it, bottle it and ship it to Charlotte, all for less than $12? Amazing!

Gigi plans a dinner with chicken, wild rice, peas, and homemade biscuits.

Truly this is the golden age of living.

One must not take this bounty and blessings for granted, and always give thanks to whom it is due and deserved.

Biscuits!? You know how I feel about Gigi's biscuits!! Must you taunt me with their homemade goodness!?

If I can reel her in. She is wondering between the RV, guest house and barn. I may never eat.

Oh I love her biscuits.

That sounds delicious....I think I'll make chicken tonight too.
By the way, it's flip flop weather here too.

Very good Chris. I saw you were in the 70's. You guys deserve it. I know Mexico was a welcomed winter break. I hope the warm weather stays.

Gah...drool...slurp. Biscuits are one of my all time favourite foods. I'm drooling on my keyboard all the way up in Winnipeg.
