The Babushka sisters arrived fromsophie 016 Leelanau this afternoon to spend the holiday weekend with us.

A little later Uncle Fanny arrived… He was not doing so well.  His drive left him extremely dehydrated.IMG_0648

We immediately began to serve our family’s traditional cocktails; Natural light beer and shots of Papa John’s. Papa John’s is a mixture invented many years ago by my father’s dad; Grandpa John.  It is a combination of whisky/simple sugar/water and oranges. It became a family holiday tradition.

In no time flat; after a “Papa” for each leg and each arm, Uncle Fanny was table polka-dancing like his old wonderful self.FullSizeRender

More of what I needed…  Sounds so selfish;
feels so good…

Candle light, homemade pea soup and warm bread.

It is OK to take care of “one’s” self.
Do something today; just for you…
