had a lovely Mother’s Day…

was up early, as usual, lol, and went out to have a hot tub… spent a little while sorting out how to get a shot of me in the tub… it has been nine years since I stepped into this hot tub for the first time, on Mother’s Day in 2009… what fun to figure out how to get the shot…

met up with my daughter and family for breakfast out… usually we would have supper at home, but the younger boys have soccer practice at 6… there was a long line as we waited but the salmon benedict I ordered was delicious… it has a spinach sauce and is served on a scone, yum…

at the end of the meal she and I received a chocolate treat… when I ate it a little while ago it reminded me of a fiddle diddle cookie my friend Lisa makes… delicious…

had a text and call from my older daughter while I was waiting to be picked up after breakfast…

then my son-in-law took us moms to a number of plant stores where we wandered around and picked up a few goodies…

I was particularly happy to find a purple datura and a pretty dahlia… my plan is to leave the plants on the dining room table for a few weeks rather than put them out and bring them in, depending on the weather…

besides the plants, I got a pretty outdoor cushion, a blue-y purple pot, and purple morning glory seeds…

had planned to make roast chicken with stuffing for my dinner, but after all that running around, decided that ordering in would be a nice treat, lol…

and it was;-)…
