And a final HAPPY BIRTHDAY to LH.............I know, you aren't home, but you do know you are well loved by all of us too.

MOFF, don't say a word..........here is your hot tea with honey.
Sit back, relax, maybe we can con Mario into cleaning up this place.

*oof, pant...* here's a little wooden rocking horse for you Mario! Put on your silks and let's go for a pony ride. Tea and honey and mint juleps for later on. (Well, those of you on the "other side of the pond" can have one now if you would like...). Git along little dogie Seeing that the Preakness is on Saturday in Baltimore we also can serve Black Eyed Susans as an option to Mint Juleps, and if we are on a Baltimore MARYLAND Preakness kick allow me to put some crab cakes together, or at least some crab dip or crab quiche

Funny you should have this theme for Thursdays, one of our next door neighbors is a horse barn. And he does the sulky racing. Two foals have shown up next door. Very cute and full of energy.

I'll have one of those mint julips please. Mario please don't put that saddle on Lady.
