I have had the BEST morning

 My grand daughter and her partner visited from interstate so I could meet my great grandson.

 He is seven weeks old tomorrow and I held him for so long I can still feel him. 

My mind is swimming in new baby bliss.

    Baby bliss is such a perfect description. We will be in Illinois May 1-8, where our three youngest gr-kids are. Flynn will have a 5th birthday, Ambrose will be 3 or 4 in October, and Dottie will be 2. Cannot wait.

      Susan Kane; it's surprising just how fast they grow isn't it?

      messymimi; i am very happy for them too, they are wonderful parents. The father is Greek and sings and talks to baby in both languages so he will grow up bi-lingual.

      Joanne; new baby bliss should be bottled and sold so everyone could feel like this.

    What a treat! I'm sure he seemed tiny, what with the twins growing so fast and crawling now.

      Val; he did seem tiny, but I still remember the "nothing" weight of the girls at two DAYS old.

kitchen tip #?????

Not exactly environmentally friendly...... Line the base of your oven with a sheet of aluminium foil. If you keep a tray there to catch spills and overflows, line the tray with aluminium foil instead. It's much easier to throw away a sheet of foil (once it's been spilled on a few dozen times), than it is to scrub off baked on spillovers.

Very expensive ice cream, which I recently discovered in small tubs at my local supermarket.  I'd heard about Salted Caramel ice cream, with some bloggers raving about it, so when I saw the Haagen-Dazs tubs on sale for only $5 I bought some.  I loved it! Fabulous stuff. Just the right amount of salted caramel streams to counteract the sweet ice cream. I would have rated it five stars. But just lately, I have been disappointed with the product containing far too much of the salted caramel and my rating now would be only one star. I went to the website and clicked on "contact us" to let them know I was no longer happy. The link popped up with an address to "General Mills" which I then clicked on only to find a small popup informing me they were "offline".  Just because it is past regular business hours or permanently? Who knows.  So I'm airing my grievance here instead. If this results in fewer sales of their Sa
