Flowers, flowers, and a kit kat.
Hello to all! Today was the start of teacher appreciation week. I have to say I'm feeling very loved at the moment. Here are some of the flowers I received. There are 2 mums, a Gerber daisy, 3 roses, 2 carnations, 2 bunches of daisy's, 3 tulips, and a water pitcher full of pixie carnations. What a great idea to put them in that kind of a reusable container! I will definitely 'borrow' that idea. I also got a gazillion kit kat candy bars and a package of my new favorite chocolate candy from Hershey, they are called BLISS. Aptly named I must say. I can't wait to see what tomorrow brings! Last year we had a recipe day, and I heard that is not happening this year, they forgot about it. Tooooo bad!
And have you ever seen a better use of dandy lions in your life?? By the time I took this picture they were wilting, but when this came in they were bright yellow and sassy yet!
In honor of Cinco de Mayo I'm going to post a Mexican food recipe. I used to make this quite a bit, I'd kind of forgotten about it. By the way, thank you to those few brave souls that leave me a message on these pages. I love it when I have a comment waiting for me! I wondered if anyone was reading it at all which is why I put on the counter on the top right corner. Thanks for stopping by!
