In this world today while we’re living
Some folks say the worst of us they can
But when we are dead and in our caskets
They always slip some lilies in our hand
Won’t you give me my flowers while I’m living
And let me enjoy them while I can
Pleae don’t wait till I’m ready to be buried
And then slip some lilies in my hand
In this world is where we need our flowers
A kind word to help us get along
If you can’t give me flowers while I’m living
Then please don’t throw them when I’m gone

Sending these flowers from my house to yours – hope you’re not allergic!
‘Ole Man Winter is finally giving up with temps rising every day this week, by Good Friday all the snow should be melted. Yesterday schools dismissed early so kids in the neighborhood had a chance to play in the snow, 1 house even made a family of snow people including a dog, it was so cute.
I miss not having little guys anymore and hate to see kids that are too attached to electronics. I’ve seen toddlers in grocery carts playing with their parent’s iPhones or iPads. I don’t know about you but sometimes I just want to go outside and play! Growing up we were up and out early riding bikes, jumping Double Dutch, playing Jacks, BoxBall, Hop Scotch, Red Light Green Light 1-2-3, Freeze Tag, all kinds of outside games.
I truly miss those times – what were some of your favorite childhood games?

It’s a warm December day in the Delaware Valley and I hope it’s the same “in your neck of the woods” – I love Al Roker! Saturday my girlfriend told me about her daily Zumba workout so last night I pulled up some YouTube videos and tried it. Man oh man it was an awesome workout, I loved it and will definitely try it every night to fight off these excess lbs that have attached themselves to my body!
Today’s outfit is almost totally thrifted, the blouse, skirt and shoes were all thrifted from Goodwill

This afternoon, I may pull out my sneakers from under my desk and go for a brisk walk.

Cook E doeFace is my “play cousin” from Philly, she reminds me so much of my real cousins in New York, like them she makes me laugh and brightens my day. If I have a rough day I’ll log onto YouTube and watch her make a meal or cocktail, my favorite is “Thank You Lawd“, reminds me of the “I Love Lucy” VitaVetaVegamin episode. With so much hatred and negativity in today’s world, it’s nice to have an escape, a place to go if only for a few minutes to kick back, relax and enjoy. So if you need some funny in your life, check out my “cuz”, I guarantee she will make you smile!
“Cook E doeFace Place is a relaxing place where you can get great, easy to make recipes, for novice all the way to the pros.”
With an overly warm winter and a very rainy spring it’s only natural that summer is barreling in with excessive heat. We have been given excessive heat warnings for today and Thursday with temps expecting to reach the high 90’s but feel like 100 degrees. This morning at 6:00 the readings were above 70. Stay cool, hydrated and safe!
Summertime fun in the sun calls for good music and these are my favorites – click on the links to see YouTube video. What are some of your favorite summer songs?
There are numerous published safety tips on how to stay cool during the excessive heat and I am definitely adhering to the one about dressing lightly.
