Texasgranny6's Journal, 27 Apr 24

56th anniversary today! We exchanged cards, but plan to celebrate next week. We nearly always celebrate by eating at Red Lobster -- so will I eat those cheese biscuits or will I be able to pass them up!

Today I drank my Keto coffee, skipped breakfast. Didn't eat lunch, so blood sugar dropped too fast -- I ate a hershey bar and fudge bar after grocery shopping and drank a premier protein drink on the way home. Supper was low sugar cranberry juice, cheese stick and another fudge bar, so I didn't stick with my diet well today.

Today hubby worked on rebuilding a pasture fence, with son and grandson. I went to the garden show and came home with more plants -- most of them are now planted. I'll plant the rest tomorrow after the rain.

Yesterday we ate our first garden meal: turnip and beet greens cooked with fresh herbs, bacon wrapped asparagus, radishes, green olives, with cottage cheese. English peas are ripe, so we ate them today with the rest of the asparagus. I pulled some green onions to put in the salad tomorrow, with more fresh radishes. Loving to have my garden producing again.

I walked 5 days this week, skipped today. Will start again with my neighbor on Monday. I brought home a bouquet of wild flowers from my walk on Friday. It looks lovely in my kitchen and the wild honeysuckle in it smells wonderful. We are past bluebonnet season, but Indian paintbrush, Indian blankets, dandelions, butterfly weed, yellow daisy-like flowers, primroses, and several kinds of purple legumes paint the roadsides and pastures with colors.

Weather man is warning about possible stormy weather tonight. Hope it doesn't hail on my garden.

O please post a pic of those pretty flowers. Did you see on Diana’s post i read that they are pondering bankruptcy for red lobster? Enjoy it while it is still here. Happy anniversary! That’s a long long time not many can say the same. Yay for you. Will ask you also, what are top 3 reasons you attribute to such a long marriage?

Happy Anniversary 🎉🎉🎉 Me and my hubby have been married 36 years and been together 38. Hopefully we will make it as long as you and your husband. It takes hard work to sustain a marriage but you have to have plenty of love between you and trust! I wish you many more years together 😊

Our 56th Anniversary will be in August. You guys barely beat us to the alter! We talked about an Alaska cruise last summer, but somehow it never progressed from talk to action. Not sure why!
