Breathe.

As part of my fantabulous Mother's Day, I was able

to spend a large part of my day right here at 

Square.  Ohlala, I had a wonderful girly filled day

with a manicure, spa pedicure, and haircut.  How

lucky can a girl be??  I left the house in my usual

hurry and returned home ready to unpack boxes,

write a dissertation, and prepare a yummy dinner.

Before leaving for the spa, we decided just where

to put more storage space in the garages and

found my coveted cookbook box.  Some of the

cookbooks and recipes in the box date back

to the 1930s and 40s.  I knew that this box was

out in the abyss somewhere and was only too

excited when we actually put our hands on the

box.  The cookbooks are now safely tucked

into the newly crafted cookbook shelves in

our kitchen.  Now for some spare time to look

at them . . .
