The birds have flown the nest!!!

The hummingbirds flew the nest yesterday. One minute they were there, the next, not. They are still around. How quickley they grow up these days!!!

Dennis and AJ dropped by Memorial day for dinner. It was AJ's birthday May 31st. I had made some red velvet chocolate cup cakes to help celebrate. Very nice, thanks again Ina!!  Dennis had ordered beef suet from Jensen's because it is very hard to find and Stuart had been going on about wanting to make something with a suet pastry. Guess what? Tonight, Dennis, AJ and Peter will be joining us for steak and mushroom pie with a suet pastry crust! Yum!! I will do a remake of the red velvet chocolate cup cakes. Oh, welcome home from IML Peter. Mr. Leather Europe was the winner.

This weekend is fairly quiet. Some return visitors, Jim from West Vancouver and Allen and Steve from Seal Beach, CA. Thanks for the cactus info, Steve. We now know December is NOT a good time to plant cactus. Did our landscapers tell us this? No, of course not.

Two men checked in last night from Key West and were going to stay only 2 nights. They had been here for about 2 minutes when they decided to cancel the next hotel and stay here until Wednesday!! Yippee for us!
