Sorry to hear, Linda. How many more matches left?

Too many! They were top of the league by miles before Christmas. They seemed to score at least 5 goals every match. They won 3 matches 7-0. It seems to have gone downhill of late. The end of the season is in May.

How do you find out about the neighbors in the US? In Turkey, you could just knock on their door and get invited for tea.
If you see someone working out in their yard, you go up and introduce yourself and show your interest in the house that's for sale. They'll be more than willing to gossip with you.

A menu for the tortoises? They must be enjoying your bed-and-breakfast/restaurant very much :confused:
:)
Well, actually, they don't get a choice. They're stuck with what I toss at them.

It was grey and overcast out there, but surprisingly warm, in fact shirt sleeve weather.

Here we are at Kenilworth Road, home of Luton Town FC. No seat has a view that is left intentionally unobscured ;)

I remember coming here in the 1980s with JoesDad and you hand to stand in this part of the stadium. It’s all seated by law now.

It’s a key match - first v second in League 2. A six-pointer as they say.
It is always much more fun watching a game at the stadium than on T.V. I hope it was a good game.

Here is the mostly completed cake we made for the fund-raiser competition!
The fund raiser is for a local Alcoholics Anonymous recovery group, so the theme can be anything related to AA. There is a line in the AA Big Book that describes being "..rocketed into a fourth dimension...", hence our cake!!!! :)
The bottom layer is chocolate, the rocket is coconut cake and the icing is cream cheese icing!! It does't matter if we win or if our cake sells well, we had a blast making it!!!! (pun intended! ;) )

It's hard to see in this photo, but the red of the rocket also has sparkling red sugar all over it!
The silver was EDIBLE SILVER SPRAY PAINT!!!!!! I had never heard of such a thing before!!!!

That looks scrumptious. I hope whoever buys it, saves a piece for me.[emoji16]
