Oh my friend…

You just made my day and it’s only 7:18 in the morning! My wonderful dad has Alzheimer’s so his recall of many things is spotty at best. But, we make a point of telling him how popular his margarita recipe is with our readers and it always brings a smile to his face, even though I’m not sure he knows what I am referring to. In any event, I will be reading him your comment when I see him later, so know you will make an old man smile today!

And snow? What the heck? Is that normal for the end of April? But, you can surely start planning out your containers…that should help brighten an otherwise chilly day!

I do have a favor to ask…when you get a chance, would you mind going to the Margarita post and giving the recipe the number of stars you think it deserves? Google definitely uses those ratings to determine how popular a recipe is and if it should be shown to more people looking for Margarita recipes. If you are willing to do it, here’s the link back to the original recipe: https://nourishandnestle.com/best-margarita-recipe/

Thanks again Christie for your sweet comment!

Hugs,

Lynn

Thank you for the “repeat share” of your father’s Margarita recipe! I was visiting my daughter and her family in Rhode Island and we celebrated Margarita Friday, (and Saturday) in January with your shared recipe. It was the most amazing Margarita I have ever had. I have saved it in multiple places so I can always find it! Thanks for your generosity with all you share with us!

Can’t wait to create some amazing containers using some of your suggestions, but it is currently snowing in Denver! I think I will need to wait a couple of more weeks before getting my fingers in the soil!

In reply to Carol. Carol, I KNOW!!! But you know as well as I do that time just keeps on marching (running?) on! And I am so bummed that there are only 2 more episodes!

In reply to lynn. He will be getting a degree in math from Virginia Tech and really likes cryptography. I'm trying to find a gift that is somehow related to cryptography, but I don't have a clue! What is your first "baby" graduating in?

Lynn, I watched The Quiet Place with my daughter a few weeks ago. I was on the edge of my seat a few times; as I was last evening watching the battle on Game of Thrones! I think there’s only 3 more episodes. I can’t believe your daughter is graduating. It seems like yesterday she just started college.

In reply to Lori. Oh Lori...you just made my day and read my mind! I started looking at grad gifts last night. What will his degree be in?

Lynn, I just love your web site. I am often so excited on Monday mornings to see what you have posted. Your “recipes” for container gardens are terrific. I want to try ornamental cabbage this year. I also loved your other recipes for using herbs in desserts. Our son (only child) also graduates from college in just 2 weeks. I really can’t believe it! I’m struggling to find a nice graduation present for him. Have you got any good ideas? Have a wonderful day!
