Darned Parkinson's... called my dad today and he muttered something about been trying to call my mother but can't reach her (really, really weird since she died 2+ years ago AND they divorced more than 30 years ago). <br /><br />Glad you had a visit with Theo, even if the salad was difficult work and the kids grew so big that the table is overcrowded! :)Karen (formerly kcinnova)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16705613736966783261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29186394.post-27441112368853499572013-09-02T19:39:43.520-04:002013-09-02T19:39:43.520-04:00Me, too, hon - I blame menopause.Me, too, hon - I blame menopause.Suburban Correspondenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11488916572135296650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29186394.post-74066657070301699072013-09-02T19:30:45.234-04:002013-09-02T19:30:45.234-04:00I used to cook for six or twelve with ease.

Now, a simple meal of grilled burgers, salad, potatoes, and a dessert for four seems like it should be enough cooking to last us a week. <br /><br />I used to LOVE cooking!

I spent a lot of dinners that way.<br /><br />We hardly ever sit at the table anymore, it's a shame but whatev, we'll survive.<br /><br />I can never find scissors either. I hide them when I find them and get all excited if they are still there the next time I need them.
