Bet you will be all colours of the rainbow though. For reasons unknown, my DH decided to invite his brother and family over the day after I came out of hospital for skin cancer removal on my face. I looked a absolute fright. Guess it was a good way to drill skin cancer awareness in to his nieces. I like the way you think - I will now enjoy being all colours of the rainbow😍 Years ago one of my bosses wife had plastic surgery and I had to drop by their house the day after her surgery to take some papers, etc to my boss who was working from home after seeing how she looked I will never get cosmetic plastic surgery for the sake of vanity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a very close-knit family, and used to travel together as 3 generations. We were wary to feel like "intruders", but accepted mainly for the opportunity to spend quality time with our grandkids and our son. The accommodations were very basic, and cheap also. We didn't participate in all their activities, but it was still fun, with the men being on the "grill" and the women taking care of the other food. The grandkids were in awe of the resident peacock, which didn't hesitate to turn his "back" to DH, after flaunting its glorious tail to have its pic taken... A very special tree. We have been blessed with a rainy winter, and the north is very green, not something we've seen in many years. Gorgeous Peacock and the lush landscape is very peaceful and calming. What type of tree is that - I like it! That is very nice of your DIL's to include you as you are part of their family now. Sounds like a wonderful couple of days.

Pesach sameach to you too !! I'm ashamed to admit that the whole gang didn't even notice the tree... that is, besides DH, who is always looking for objects to take pictures of. I didn't even know that we have baobabs in Israel. So when you both asked, I've typed "baobabs in Gonen" [the kibbutz's name] and lo and behold -- found a review in TripAdvisor by someone from India, no less, acknowledging the tree, which was right in front of DS2's "cottage".... "....The best part of my stay in Israel was at Kibbutz [Nofey] Gonen. Loved every bit of it.. the peacocks roaming in gay abandon, the beautiful greenery, the baobab tree in front of my cottage no 45.. it's a place where I can spend endless time doing nothing. The reception and canteen was barely 50 m away, their kitchen is strictly kosher, there's WiFi only in the reception lobby." 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My recipe that I use and like is this one. https://showmetheyummy.com/fluffy-chocolate-chip-cookies-recipe/ except I substitute crud I for butter and I shift the flour and refrigerate the dough over night. I just love Kraken and think it is wonderful in any rum based cocktail. Glad you like it. I pretty much order any rum drink with Kraken or have the bartender top the drink off with a shot of Kraken. Cheers! You've got quite a following with the Kraken Rum, Greg! I love it.

Sandals resorts definitely sound like a step up from the Club Med we stayed at years ago. There was a space under the door and we kept getting bothered by land crabs coming in and climbing the curtains. They would skitter around on the tile floor. The lady in the room next to us had a bat in her shower. She chased it out with her hair dryer. Edited April 14, 2022 by Coralc 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc took one scrap and I waited about 45 minutes for him to tell me he got all of it and time to stitch me up. I look like hell right now. My eye is pretty much swollen shut and I have six stitches underneath it. They put on this huge pressure bandage that has to stay on for 24 hours. All of this for such a tiny spot that was the size of a tiny skin tag. Glad that it is removed. they recommend I put a bag of peas on for 20 minutes every hour today and tomorrow. Doc and nurse both said I will definitely get a black eye and may be swollen till Saturday or Sunday. Hopefully it won't look to be bad for when we go out to eat Easter Dinner on Sunday. I go back in a week to get 3 of the 6 stitches removed the other 3 will dissolve. Now we want to see this, with your hair braided too, If Greg can show his knee I'm sure your eye is nothing. 🙂 Edited April 14, 2022 by Jimbo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bar-Bill is our favorite place to wings and beef on wick, Buffalo QB Josh Allen was quoted that that was his favorite place for wings a couple of years ago and place was crowded even before then. Bar-Bill is located in East Aurora and we will spend 3 nights of our 4 nights there , loads of restaurants in walking distance of our hotel. Made the mistake of ordering there hot wings once, I needed a full beer for each wing , cash only but they have a atm 😁, my wife has a bar-bill T-shirt, they had none my size on last trip will try again. Highly recommend that restaurant. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
