Janie, I just checked my email and there was one from Collin Street Bakery. They'll probably be packed with customers, but didn't want you to miss out in case you are interested. (I'm interested but they haven't built one close to me...yet.)

Good morning, Sour. I hope y'all have a great day.

So far so good. Went to cemetery and planted a nice Dahlia for MIL. It's a very nice day here after several days of rain so the whole world is out and about. That being said we made it there and back safely.

I like how you and the Princess decorate your family graves. When I was a kid, there seemed to be more of that than there is now. Maybe families are too spread out now to make it practical?

My husband just told me he'd like to drive over tomorrow and get me another cheesecake. I said no! I'll bet they are very crowded tomorrow.

That's true. My parents used to take us to the cemetery regularly to clean and decorate Graves. We even had community get together to do maintenance. It was a different, and better, world.

The in laws are buried in a Catholic cemetery - Polish/Hungarian community. It's an hour drive for us, but many still live in the two small towns and graves are always well 'dressed' and maintained. My parents are buried in Florida. I can't begin to imagine what their grave looks like.
