Morning Q-sters

I have tickets for David Gilmour tonight...I am in a little discomfort, think I may have pulled or torn a muscle or irritated my hernia a few days ago. Seem to be feeling better today and hope I can make it to the show...

Hope all is well with my fellow Q-mates

Keep dry and rock on

hope you're at the concert, rockit!

What a beautiful reminder of what we and our parents used to be! Just look at us now. . . .

---

A POEM THAT WAS US

A little house with three bedrooms,
One bathroom and one car on the street
A mower that you had to push
To make the grass look neat.

In the kitchen on the wall
We only had one phone,
And no need for recording things,
Someone was always home.

We only had a living room
Where we would congregate,
Unless it was at mealtime
In the kitchen where we ate.

We had no need for family rooms
Or extra rooms to dine.
When meeting as a family
Those two rooms would work out fine.

We only had one TV set
And channels maybe two,
But always there was one of them
With something worth the view

For snacks we had potato chips
That tasted like a chip.
And if you wanted flavor
There was Lipton's onion dip.

Store-bought snacks were rare because
My mother liked to cook
And nothing can compare to snacks
In Betty Crocker's book

Weekends were for family trips
Or staying home to play
We all did things together
Even go to church to pray.

When we did our weekend trips
Depending on the weather,
No one stayed at home because
We liked to be together

Sometimes we would separate
To do things on our own,
But we knew where the others were
Without our own cell phone

Then there were the movies
With your favorite movie star,
And nothing can compare
To watching movies in your car

Then there were the picnics
at the peak of summer season,
Pack a lunch and find some trees
And never need a reason.

Get a baseball game together
With all the friends you know,
Have real action playing ball
And no game video.

Remember when the doctor
Used to be the family friend,
And didn't need insurance
Or a lawyer to defend

The way that he took care of you
Or what he had to do,
Because he took an oath and strived
To do the best for you

Remember going to the store
And shopping casually,
And when you went to pay for it
You used your own money?

Nothing that you had to swipe
Or punch in some amount,
And remember when the cashier person
Had to really count?

The milkman used to go
From door to door,
And it was just a few cents more
Than going to the store.

There was a time when mailed letters
Came right to your door,
Without a lot of junk mail ads
Sent out by every store ..

The mailman knew each house by name
And knew where it was sent;
There were not loads of mail addressed
To "present occupant”

There was a time when just one glance
Was all that it would take,
And you would know the kind of car,
The model and the make

They didn't look like turtles
Trying to squeeze out every mile;
They were streamlined, white walls, fins
And really had some style

One time the music that you played
Whenever you would jive,
Was from a vinyl, big-holed record
Called a forty-five

The record player had a post
To keep them all in line
And then the records would drop down
And play one at a time.

Oh sure, we had our problems then,
Just like we do today
And always we were striving,
Trying for a better way.

Oh, the simple life we lived
Still seems like so much fun,
How can you explain a game,
Just kick the can and run?

And why would boys put baseball cards
Between bicycle spokes
And for a nickel, red machines
Had little bottled Cokes?

This life seemed so much easier
Slower in some ways
I love the new technology
But I sure do miss those days.

So time moves on and so do we
And nothing stays the same,
But I sure love to reminisce
And walk down memory lane.

With all today's technology
We grant that it's a plus!
But it's fun to look way back and say,
HEY LOOK, GUYS, THAT WAS US!

[heartgirl99]

even though back in the days when everything was closed on sundays and it seemed inconvenient, we all got our stuff done in the other 6 days.
it seems that every stat holiday there are more retailers allowed to open. why does the mall have to be open on easter sunday?
in florida, the premium outlet mall was even open on christmas day.
why can't retailers just let people have a day off with family?

[rock lobster]

Oh! Look what I found.

Maybe not for the purists; but for the adventurous:


Frozen Bellini

Let’s hear it for frozen peaches and Prosecco.



Even though temperatures are still only hovering justabove freezing, the clocks are about to go forward and we are officially heading into spring. Yeah!
I don't know what spring means to you, but dining alfresco, a fresh pair of sunglasses and sipping rosé are all part of our springtime favourites here at HerFamily HQ.
And now we have discovered yet another reason to love the warmer weather: Frozen booze.
So if you want to take those back garden BBQ's up a notch this summer, here are three wine slushie recipes guaranteed to impress everyone – including yourself (and we bet you hard-working mamas are all sorts of deserving of a little treat!)
Strawberry Peach Wine Slushie

Strawberries + peaches + Sauvignon Blanc = perfection.
Get the recipe.

[rock lobster]

Turtles are way cool.
Know why?
Cuz they don't care if you
think they're cool or not.
