“A BIG and Happy Birthday to ALAN”
“BIRTHDAY… Surprise for ALAN”
“JULIA CHILD” in the Kitchen -with ALAN! *********
Have you ever seen “JULIA CHILD” at work in your KITCHEN?
Grand-daughter JAIME was taking pictures as “GRANDMA” was putting “31” candles on a home made cake for the best GRANDSON, “ALAN” and since this “Birthday Party” was for him, he was giving his approval as he over looks the last minute preparations.
When I saw this PHOTO, I just had to die laughing as I remember seeing “JULIA CHILD” bending over as you see me, because as you hit the older years in “LIFE” looks like the straight back, takes a good bend forward . That “old” bending, seems to just creepe up, on us senior citizens as we approach those beyond “GOLDEN” years.
Many years ago, I would watch “JULIA CHILD” in her cooking shows, and always thought that she really enjoyed all of the cooking that she did. In fact, I even had to buy her book, “The FRENCH CHEF” and that is “one” of the very many books on cooking, that I have.
Years ago, when I would be in the KITCHEN and my MOTHER would be there, too – she would remark to me, that she thought that I would be “talking” just like “JULIA CHILD.” I did not think so, but I do have one of those voices, that when you hear it, you will always remember me!
Getting back to “ALAN’s” BIRTHDAY PARTY, we had a very good time and everyone liked that cake so much, even some guests, took seconds. Something to think about, a most important thing that is happening in our world TODAY . I feel that there are lots of FAMILIES, that will not be celebrating special times with “GRAND-CHILDREN” as FAMILIES are cutting down on having children, so it seems to me, that this world will soon have a shortage of children.
When I was a small child and in school, there was the saying, “The FAMILY that PRAYS together, STAYS TOGETHER!” Something that I have not heard in a very long time! Every day, I give THANKS to the ALMIGHTY, since HE gave to me the best children and “GRAND-CHILDREN” jut something that I wish more people could or even would say, and also be so very grateful to our CREATOR, for all the wonderful gifts of “Children” we receive daily to enjoy having occasions to meet with , work with, celebrate with, and, that starts each and every day, with our very own FAMILY!
