What’s left of the allium and what I did to the photo of it in Paint Shop Pro.

Dear Recipe writers,
When you develop a recipe called ‘Chocolate Chip Muffins’ that only has about 6 ingredients in it, why not make sure you get all the directions right, pretty please? In fact, you should have said how much milk to add and how much batter to fill each muffin cup with. Why not use butter instead of veggie oil? This seasoned baker tried your blasted recipe twice to try out her new mixer and oven. She is quite disappointed in the results. And when you say- ‘These muffins are requested for breakfast every day at our inn’, you get said baker all interested in trying these flops. One thing-they taste better than they look. Said baker didn’t open the oven door once and even blamed big footed son for walking around the kitchen like an elephant. Live and learn and find another recipe!

Here’s the same plant (extreme left) kast year when I brought it home from the garden center. The other plants didn’t make it.

You can see my beloved ‘Mom mom’ in a few photos with her hair in pin curls!

These were taken with my camera phone as I had forgotten my digital camera. The show was excellent. I know the music from having the Broadway show CD. I’ve been interested in the Titanic since the movie. We did get married on April 14th too (when it sank). In fact, the guy that boards at mom’s house mentioned this to Brian and me on our wedding day.
We’ve seen quite a few Titanic related exhibits and shows-ones down in Atlantic City and Orlando and now the musical.

Mom and me outside the ‘box office’ after seeing the musical This is the same theatre we use to go as kids. I remember standing in a line that wrapped around to the corner when we went to see ‘Star Wars’ back in 1977.
This is the stage-you can see the capital’s wheel in the middle. There were metal steps and a platform there, so the scenes were mostly in different levels. The opening scene showed the cast looking at the ‘floating city’ stage left. Many of the cast members played both 1st and 3rd class passengers.
Sean had a young lady about his age sit next to him. I think they were the two youngest people in the theatre! Mom and I got a kick out of that. We had a ‘red hat’ group of ladies in front of us and the rest of the audience was mostly elderly.

I just ordered tickets for a matinee showing of Titanic in my hometown for this afternoon (local production)! Sean and I are taking mom. He doesn’t seem that thrilled that we have to leave here around noon to pick up mom for the 2 o’clock show. Yes it takes us that long to get ready and out of the house. I am excited because I love the soundtrack from the Broadway show. I’ll check in tonight to let you know how it was.
