55.....

Happy  Birthday to me....
55
55
55
55
Yep that's my new number... 
and I am proud of it!  
I stopped worrying about turning older 
some years ago!  
I figure it this way, it's a blessing to be 
alive and life is a gift so enjoy it!
 I adore lemon flavored cakes...
 or Lemon Meringue Pie
(as a child my Mom gave me the choice of either a 
birthday cake or lemon meringue pie- I often chose the pie!)
I'm floating thinking about
this one (no wait, that's a sugar high)
Lemon Meringue Cake!!
  55 years ago... 
 My actual birthday is Saturday and I think a nice relaxing day is in order!  We'll see what comes of the day! I'll get my "lemon" Birthday treat from my sister when I see the family for Easter!
 Happy Birthday to all of you 
March babies and those turning 
55 (or already have) like me! 
 Spring has sprung and I think that's one of the best reasons I always enjoyed having been born in March!
Easter is right around the corner and life is bursting out everywhere once again!
I Love it!
Hope your weekend is great! 
I know I'm going to enjoy mine!
 I'd like you all to welcome my friend Betty- She's started a blog this week...please check out her link and welcome her aboard!

  5. FINALLY!!! A picture of that pretty little face of yours!!!!!!!!!!! Hooray! And hooray for your birthday! I was going to wait until tomorrow, but I'll go ahead and start early with the celebration! You're a Spring chicken, girl! Go on and burst out like those daffodils and hyacinth and tulilps! It's a new day, a new year, a new life!!! Seriously, if you don't go out somewhere and just kick your heels up high as a Rockette, I'm going to drive up there and beat you up! Put on something that shows off "the girls" just a little bit, paint your lips a sultry red, tease that hair up like Snookie, and get your little hips on out there to party!!!!!!! Start the day off with a mimosa (or two!) to get you in the mood! It's your birthday, so no one will scold you for drinking before noon! Ha! The sun just came out as I wrote this. It has been gloomy & cloudy for four straight days, so that HAS TO BE a sign that it's right for you to do as I just said!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LIZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! More to come........

  7. Happy Birthday Liz...I'm a March baby too. I just turned 53 and I couldn't agree more with what you said about getting older. We are very lucky to have our health and a good life. Enjoy the weekend!

  12. Gosh, so sorry I haven't stopped by sooner... HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LIZ!! Hope you have the most wonderful, joyous, fun-filled birthday ever! Now keep the celebrating going all week, birthdays must last at least that long. The ladies in my family have always lied so much about their age, my grandmother has the wrong birthdate on her tombstone. I love how you have embraced it, better getting a year older than the alternative, right??? Wish I could share a hunk of something lemony with you!! Have fun!!

  19. I hope you had a wonderful birthday Liz! Sorry I missed it. Was doing taxes from last Thursday through Sunday for many hours. Still working on putting it all together, mailing and waiting to hear from the accountant. Oy. Am always glad when it's all done and mailed off to the IRS and State. Hope your birthday was fun and you had a great celebration!
