A Birthday Celebration for Our Greek Goddess Maria

We celebrated our friend Maria's birthday at Ola Mexican restaurant in Long Beach today.

We met at 3:30 on the patio.

It was a perfect location, quiet and uncrowded at this hour mid week.

Margaritas, great food and the joyful laughter of friends able to gather at long last made for a wonderful afternoon of celebration.

Happy Happy Birthday wishes for you Maria! May all your days be filled with joy and wonderful times with loving friends.

Creamy Lemon pasta with Lemon Crusted Chicken

I made a creamy lemon pasta with lemon crusted chicken the other day. Added peas and served with green salad. It was a quiet lazy afternoon. My granddaughter was home sick so we had some FaceTime fun playing quietly. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2UtU7sxKsk

One Day is Now

"One day you will go to the sea shore, or a lake, or even a town cafe, and you will sit and sip at a drink, watch the people having their day, and you will be relieved because it looks normal. It isn’t normal, it’s absolute favor and privilege. The last two years we have had the chance to know this.
If you are reading this, you’re safe. You have access to the internet. You can almost certainly see. You can almost certainly read. Your now is pretty damned good. Your pandemic wasn’t as bad as it could have been.
Go outside and breathe the air, see whatever sky there is and be grateful. It will get better, but it’s not really awful now. If I didn’t believe what I said, I couldn’t go on. I do, though.
See you at the seashore, kids."-J. Greenwood
