GOOD FOOD AND HOBART ANNIVERSARY WEEKEND

 How does the time go so fast?  

It's been a good weekend and oh yeah, speaking of time flying by, a few days ago was our anniversary!

TWENTY SIX YEARS!

We splurged and went a little decadent but used as many healthy ingredients as we could.  These are turkey meatballs, 2nd Man made his own homemade low sodium pasta sauce, whole wheat bread toasted with a a little heart healthy butter and olive oil with garlic and parsley.  It was so good!

A little portion control by buying only two cupcakes to celebrate.  No need to make a cake or two dozen cupcakes, just buy two good ones and enjoy them.


Hobart wanted to pop in to say "yeah, yeah, and I've been here for almost 20 of those 26 years, now feed me please..."  And we did.  Because...

  3. Congratulations with sincere wishes for many more years of being together. Hobart is remarkable, since sixteen years is the usual life span for cats. Roderick

  6. Is Hobart getting gray? Or is that shine? He is lucky to have you two caring for him. I would get one hershey bar or one brownie from the bakery to have a treat. practical parsimony. Congrats!
