Pillsbury Orange Sweet Rolls Giveaway

BlogSpark and Pillsbury have asked me to host a giveaway for them. The winner will receive a VIP pack for Pillsbury Orange Sweet Rolls. Pillsbury says family breakfasts are a great time to make good famiy memories. So, they will also give the winner a photo album to store their photos in, to remind them of happy memories.
Pillsbury is looking for pictures of families enjoying breakfast together, so if you post a family picture on your blog, be sure to tell me about it in the comment so Pillsbury and Blogspark will know too.

I've always served breakfast to my family - they especially liked pancakes, waffles, coffeecake, biscuits with gravy, eggs in a basket and Dutch babies.


Here are some vintage pictures of my children and some children I cared for enjoying breakfast - approximately 1990.



To enter, just leave a comment with your favorite breakfast - I'll draw a winner Monday, Feb. 8.

USMC humor

unless you know a Marine, you won't get the humor in this - but since I know several Marines really well, it made me laugh out loud

Hello again! I'm fine....

and thank you to everyone who has left comments and sent emails asking about my whereabouts and/or health. I am fine, just busy with stuff and circumstances.
Hopefully I will be back blogging on a more regular basis now.

I stopped blogging at first because our desktop computer had a bug, my pictures are all on it, and what is a blogpost without some pictures? It took more than a week and Jeff has since fixed it.

I've also been spending most weekdays with GS Gavin while his mommy is teaching. He is a doll and I love him dearly but he prefers me to play with him when he awake and hold him while he sleeps instead of blogging. Gavin likes to crawl into and then just sit in my bottom kitchen drawer. His bottles and dishes were already in this drawer before he claimed it as his playspace.



My sweet Aunt Evelyn passed away last week. She was just 10 days short of her 88th birthday. She was my mother's sister and a wonderful mother, wife, aunt, grandmother, woman. She will be missed by all of us.



Aunt Evelyn was a wonderful cook and I think this photo of her with a meal she cooked and served is a perfect memory. Aunt Evelyn is on the left. The man in all the pictures is her husband, Uncle Jarvis. They got married right at the end of WWII.
He passed away 5 years ago.
