Happy Fathers' Day

It was a pretty good weekend. We had dinner at our favorite place Friday night -- Adolfo's in Ocean City. We love that place.

Jay flew on Saturday. I went to the Bass outlet to spend the gift certificate that my mother-in-law gave me for my birthday. It's been quite a while since I just went shopping for myself. It was fun and it was even more fun because I was buying smaller sizes. Not a tiny size, but smaller than I was. I'm happy.

I called Jay and met him for lunch and then we visited with friends at the airport for a bit. Then we headed home to get ready to head up to Greenwood for our grandson's birthday. It was a pleasant gathering and Eli was certainly having fun. He was more than a little aware that he was the star. :-)

Today is Fathers' Day. We started the day with a light rain (which we need DESPERATELY). I told Jay that I gave him rain for Father's Day. :-) I did make him bacon and eggs for breakfast ... of course, I had some too. Having a nice breakfast together is always a nice way to start the day. Then he headed to the airport and I did my usual chores. Plus I made an amazing (no kidding) dinner. I made fresh bread in the bread maker -- I just used it to make the dough while I did chores. Then I shaped the loaves into baguettes and baked them in the oven. They turned our yummy. And I made his favorite ... chicken cutlets. I also make baked plum tomatoes -- those things are the bomb. Add a little salad and you have a kick ass dinner, if I do say so myself.

So Jay had a nice Father's Day. Jen called this evening when she finally had time. He was thinking she forgot, but she didn't. A good weekend. It's a shame that tomorrow is Monday, but oh well. Gotta make the donuts.
