RR, I got a ladder last year and a wheel barrow the year before that. I could ask for kitchen stuff but because Elery likes to cook, he already has all that stuff and he brings it to my house. (grin) Our latest "acquisition" is a Cuisinart rotisserie, he just finished 35 years with his employer and they let employees pick gift/bonuses from a catalog based on their years of employment. It was one of the bonuses, so it'll be coming here pretty soon, LOL. So I can ask for fence and still play with the cooking stuff, double bonus! Annie

Thanks you all. After wishes are just as appreciated. Smiles. It was a good day and it's been a good weekend so far. We still have tomorrow. The canning has gone pretty good, but it sure is hard with two old ladies with bad backs one of which uses a cane, to haul all that hot water and such and schlep the stuff around the kitchen, clean all the jars from basement,. etc.. etc.. lol. Did a few dills and some tomatoes. Meanwhile dragging the canning stuff from the pantry closet[which is an under the stairs kind of deal so it goes far back but gets shallow] caused me to have to clean and rearrange that. I've just about killed Christy. She may never take another day off. LOL. Omg. Lars.. you made me laugh so hard. I read your post to Christy and she said.. "Jerseylicious..you... NOT..", then she proceeded to kill herself laughing. ..lmao.. omg.. good one. Don't have the accent. My hair is long and I've only had it cut professionally once in my adult life and that was a trim. I cut it myself. No hair products, except shampoo. Some eye liner and mascara sometimes. No animal prints..ever..lol.. I wear long cotton tshirt dresses or long tshirts and shorts/pants. Sorry if this disappoints.. smiles. Btw, around here we call that part of NJ.. New York New Jersey.

Thanks ya'll. It's been a very nice day. We ended up not going today so will try to fit that in while she's still off. We stayed home so that Christy could cook. She made my Fresh Pasta Sauce with eggplant and yellow squash and served it over cheese ravioli. It really turned out great! I love ravioli too. Just had a piece of the cake and it was delish. The icing was a nice buttercream with vanilla and almond extract both. Jessie helped by licking plates. One of my presents was a new ice cream scoop. LOL.. Time to make that creamsicle ice cream. I did buy the oj concentrate. Again, thanks.

My thoughts & Prayers are with you, because I know how hard this day is for you! My husband would have been 60yrs. old April 29th, and I was completely blind-sided by the emotions I had that day.

And I'm so sorry to be so late thanking you all!! Thanks for starting the thread Ann T, how very nice of you.
I did have a really nice birthday. I had made some fresh pasta sauce and froze it so Christy made me some gnocchi to go with it. It took a while this year but we finally found a place with the best corn ever, and you know that's saying something for me. So, we had a couple ears of corn too. A nice devils food cake with cream cheese icing and a nice birthday feast was had.

I have been getting back into canning a bit, so Christy gave me this nice rack to put the cases of jars and supplies on as well as the jars of food. I cut a finger rather bad on the slicing blade of my new food processor so I'm just getting back to using that and hope to get to canning some this week. Here is my lovely rack. It's 5 shelves. Took a break from starting to put things on the shelves to take pic but at far end are some jars of beef broth and a few of the peach preserves I did last week. Rack is in the hallway. Closest woodwork is dining room doorway and at far end you can see edge of kitchen doorway.

Thanks for all the well wishes, they really are appreciated, despite my slow response.
