More Valentine Treats....

Gentle Readers and Dear Friends I hope you all had a super Valentines Day and evening - mine turned out to get even better as the day wore on....

The mail came and I got cute cards.....  and I got some lovely roses.... wasn't that sweet of Rico!!


I got them home and they add such a splash of colour to the dreary winter.  Rico also picked up a Valentine's Day cake..... so I ran out a got some ice cream - whats a cake without ice cream??

We rounded out the evening by having dinner at Alice's restaurant - our favorite neighborhood Chinese restaurant. You can;t beat the Kung Pao Prawns or the Sesame Chicken - just delicious!!!

...  and two of the who hounds were just nuts over their new squeaker....

 I got this snap last night and as you can tell - it is Smokie and the Peach that are usually in a tussle over a squeaker.  That little sucker puts up quite a fight and if the picture had sound all you would hear is grrrrrrrrrrr - and bark, bark!!

It was a nice little Holiday break here in the mid-winter......

That's about it for today sports fans.  Thanks again for stopping by and commenting!!  Do stop again.

Take care,
edgar

  2. Beautiful roses Edgar! I informed Masterchief that I would stay inside the hotel room yesterday so that I wouldn't miss the floral delivery and he looked at me all wide-eyed. Poor guy...I let him off the hook, and went SHOPPING!

    Your cake looks delicious and I am a big fan of Chinese food.

  14. Just catching up on my blog reading, and I never realized that the Lincoln Highway spanned the country! I grew up about 20 miles from it in Northern Illinois and I guess since IL contains so many "Lincoln" things I just assumed it was a state road! Glad you had a lovely Valentines Day!
