From the time I was a little girl, my mom would prepare us a birthday dinner of our choice. I was really looking forward to my choice this year---Halusky, Kielbasa, and Pirohies--A real Slovak dinner. I woke feeling just a little achy but it was my birthday and I refused to be sick. As the day went on I began to realize that I was indeed sick--Rats!!! the flu for my birthday. My mom promised to keep my dinner until I was feeling better and I snuggled in my bed waiting for my fever to break. I had to be better before Saturday. My mom and I planned to spend the whole day together and then meet my best friend Heidi and her daughter, Jenna for dinner. I also planned on spending the night at my parents--my Mom was going to teach me to quilt. Thankfully by the time Saturday arrived I was feeling like myself again. Mom and I got an early start and headed to the most amazing quilt shop. I chose the fabric for my quilt lesson and then it was on to the local farm market--which just happens to have the most amazing gift shop.......
After a wonderful afternoon, it was time to meet Heidi and Jenna. We did a little shopping....
had a little dinner, and then went back to my Moms for muffins and chi tea.
Mom gave me my quilt lesson--Heidi and Jenna headed home--and I got into my pj's and headed off to bed in my childhood room. I know they say you can't go home again but I must say it was really nice for at least one night. I slept so well--until 10:00am--that never happens. Dad and I had muffins and coffee for breakfast. Then later that afternoon finally my birthday dinner--YUMMY!!!
So goodbye to February and welcome to March--looking forward to all this next month will bring.
