Love is...

Remember these?  Since I haven't gotten a newspaper in years (except for the USA Today left at my hotel room door occasionally), I didn't realize that the proverbial They are still making these.  But a quick Google Images search, found ones as recent as 2010. 

Some of you may be old enough to remember the phrase, "Love is never having to say your sorry" or something similar - which as any reasonable person knows simply isn't true.

Well yesterday I thought of these old phrases, so I want to post a Love is...

...taking care of the rotten potatoes. 
Do you ever do that?  Am I the only person on the planet that forgets to use the potatoes?  I've done this twice in the last few months, in fact, and G has taken care of them for me - which if you know anything about rotten potatoes, isn't a fun task - I almost gag just typing about it.  Be glad there is no picture...

...giving chocolate.
My son - to his wife - cause she needed chocolate. 
 
...making perfect pancakes.
Love is also making imperfect pancakes, but my son, D, made these yesterday morning for friends.  He called to clarify a couple of tips he remembers me doing, and then sent this pic shortly after.  I would put these up against the King Arthur pancakes (the recipe I use) when it comes to their beauty and yummy goodness any time!  Nicely done, son! 
 
...giving a haircut.
My daughter, S, is one of the busiest people on earth - a young mother.  But she found the time last night to cut my hair.  AND feed us meatloaf.  AND let us play and laugh with little J-man.  AND I even got a kiss from him! 
 
...getting to see grandsons!
We get to see these little cuties this weekend!!  I sure hope we get to see Little K-man this weekend, too!   


...9-year wedding anniversaries.  And 2-year wedding anniversaries.  And 16-year wedding anniversaries.  And 53-year wedding anniversaries. 
Friends of mine celebrated their 9-year anniversary yesterday.  Their FB posts were heartwarming to read as were the posts from friends of them.  Happy anniversary!

Which reminds me - I want to post tomorrow on birthdays...seeya then!
