HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY WEEKEND!

  I did pretty well in the Derby picks- I think it was more luck, but I will take it!  I only hope luck continues as I go to Las Vegas this weekend.
I held a luncheon for a friend's birthday this week.  I decorated the table of 8 with all similar pink flowers in similar clear vases. Nothing was matchy- matchy.  It was feminine and springy.  In my place card holders I had interesting and funny aging expressions.  For instance, 'why do we have to be old to have someone tell us we look so young ?'
We had alot of fun with them.  Food was very light & spring-y as well.  The shrimp dish had onions, garlic, rice, chives and dill and feta (everything is betta with feta!)and grape tomatos.  It turned out to be a perfect choice with a great salad.  It is so nice to celebrate 'whatever' with your girlfriends.  Woman as a whole, are such caring, sharing & energetic people, how could we not have fun?  Throw in some wine, caffeine, dessert and wow, what a luncheon.
I hope your Mother's day is full of the same...lots of love and laughter as well.  Enjoy.
