You Deserve a Break Today

Back in the 70's McDonalds had a slogan "You Deserve a Break Today."  I think it was aimed at parents who cooked....

back then, that's what we did ... every night...even if we worked all day ... even if we were pooped.

So, occasionally we'd take a break and bring home take out. 

Rabbit trail:  One advantage to this "safer-at-home" time, most of us are returning to our roots and cooking more.....even me.

Rabbit trail #2:  The very first McDonalds was on "E" Street in San Bernardino, California.

I'm not sure if taking a break from the sewing studio is a blessing or a curse but I've had a break for about a week

(although I have not been to McDonalds in......a long time.) 

Yesterday the babes came over with their mama and we took a swim break:

I could not help but look at this picture and reminisce. 

When I moved here from another state to be near them the little one HATED the pool....

then he ventured to the pool steps ...

then he would dunk his head ...

then came the day when he jumped RIGHT INTO DEEP WATER!

Ahhhh....sweet memories.

Can you see the family resemblance?
Something about the eyes....

Too soon the day is done and everyone returned to their respective worlds....

G-ma took a nap!

Can you spot the Hummer?
