I confess, I had 3 turnovers! The Pillsbury ones, they’re small right? Still, pretty indulgent of me! 3 for the hubby, 3 for me!

Those Pillsbury things are tiny. You deserved 3. :)

Sorry that I’m replying so late.

The school called; the PTA needed someone to come help at the snack bar.

We have finished homework and now it is time for AWANA.

A Garden For Others

If wishes were wonders, we'd fill up this land,
With birdsong and flowers, as if we had planned,
A garden for others, as much for ourselves,
All tended in silence by scurrying elves.

If wonders were wishes, we'd be up to here,
With marvelous things that should fill us with cheer,
As if in a garden that someone had made,
While we sat around and looked on from the shade.

Somehow you may notice, whatever the case,
We didn't have much of ourselves in this place,
Because when we garden, we start with a fence,
And everything grown in it's our recompense,

For hoeing, and sweating, and kicking out bugs,
And all those large items that someone else lugs.
We tend not to share what we work to achieve,
So who would a garden of flowers conceive?

It must be a someone who feels what we feel,
Whose fancy is tickled by what we think's real,
Who puts out these wonders like toys for our eyes,
Who looks on in laughter from up in our skies.

Cruisin' . . . on an April afternoon
Really couldn't get away too soon
I can't imagine anything that's better
The world is new in this spring weather
There ain't a place I'd like to be instead of . . .
Cruisin'. . . down a blooming avenue
Doin' anything we like to do

Thank, Jaycee. I decided to start with a background and see what I could do with it by just adding to it.
