The Friday Five Good Things

 

Five good things that happened this week.

1. Saturday per my request we had an early Mother's Day dinner courtesy of Harry's and then we watched  the new Doctor Who.

2. I received Mother's Day greetings from The Young One and other family members

3. One of my continuing students got the green light from his surgeon to take my class. It was so nice to see him.

4. I emailed the IT Manager to ask if I needed a special app to cast or mirror the iPad to the monitor in the studio. He said it would just be plug and play and he also had the Lightning to HDMI connector so I wouldn't have to buy one.

5. Himself's birthday celebration. Take-out from Outback,  made from scratch yellow cake with chocolate frosting

How was your week?

    1. None of those things, but Quill got to enjoy a little crumb of the yellow birthday cake. Just like Mitty and Ink, Quill seems to have a sweet tooth. Must be a male thing because Calli isn't interested.

  12. Happy belated birthday to Himself. I understood "Plug and Play." I can relate.

    That cake looks awesome. I've never eaten at Outback. I'm not even sure if we have one in Wichita.

  13. Forgot to mention, I love that plate on which the cake is sitting.

  14. My Lady, the cake recipe came from Land O'Lakes, the butter people. In texture, the cake was more of a pound cake, but it was delicious especially with the chocolate frosting courtesy of Duncan or Betty.
