Tomorrow is my son's 50th birthday and I am cooking the foods that he has requested. Swiss steak, mashed potatoes. Cauliflower and broccoli with cheese sauce, apple pie and cheesecake with caramel frosting, home made rolls and butter. We will probably have the highest cholesterol in Oklahoma City.
My daughter will be sixty in May. I never dreamed that I would live this long and see my children reach these ages.
I am so glad that they are well and have given me six grandchildren. I have to confess that I don't love my grandchildren equally but I wish I could.
I read the best book by Phillipa Gregory called THE WHITE QUEEN. She is the mother of the two boys who disappeared from the Tower of London during the time that Richard usurped the throne. It is somewhat fictionilized and she
has done a marvelous job.
We watched Mama Mia last night and I loved it because it
was light hearted and funny. I thought the cast did a
wonderful job. The music and dancing was very good and I
wondered at Meryl Streep having such energy because she must
be nearly sixty.
