Friday night I had one of our "Girls Night Out", 6 of my friends met at one of the lady's home for dinner and a movie.

I decided to make an olive cheese French bread. I used fresh basil from my AeroGarden, tomato, bacon bits, cheese and real butter. Yummy.

I took a bottle of wine table wine we bought on our wine tour of north Texas in October.

The movie we watched was MAMA MIA!!! It was fun to watch the chick flick with a bunch of girls.

We also talked about Holly Lisle, I SEE YOU.
"
For paramedic Dia Courvant, each day brings the possibility of facing blood and death. But nothing matched the horror of the day she was dispatched to the scene of a terrible car accident and rescued the sole survivor-only to find her own husband dead in the wreckage. Now, four years later, a series of deadly car crashes has brought handsome detective Brig Hafferty into Dia's life. She's drawn to Brig, but can she trust him enough to tell him of the terror that stalks her? For Dia has received a message warning her of danger and death-a message that seems to have been sent to her from beyond the grave. "

The Rooster Kitchen: I am about half way finished with my mosaic backsplash. I ordered ceramic trivets off Ebay to add to the ceramic tiles I've cut.

Yesterday in Texas it was very warm, even turned the AC on because of a sinus headache. We've been very dry lately which is why everyone is getting allergies and sinus problems. Tomorrow we might get freezing rain, how crazy is that! 79 one day and freeing rain the day after.

Anyway, yesterday I fixed my sink...I installed a new facuet after taking the sink out to tile around and grout. I am loving the tile counter tops, next week go back to work on the mosaic backsplash. My SIL said it looks very art deco, whatever that is! LOL Pictures coming up later.

So while on my computer in the kitchen I watched the birds at my feeders on the south side of the house. I saw for the very first time a Titmouse eating sunflower seeds. I love to watch the different birds at my feeders, if possible I want to get a picture with my new camera. The Titmouse is a adorable little bird with a cute song. Since I've been keeping my feeders full I now have Caroline Chickadees, Caroline Wrens (cutest clown bird) a few pairs of Red Cardinals, Golden Finches, Morning Doves, and tons of song Sparrows. Even had a squirrel enjoying some sunflower seeds in the backyard feeder.

Yesterday my grandson turned 4 years old. My daughter baked his cake for him, they even made the sugar cookies for the top together. He is into Hot Wheel cars so he had to new cars on top.
