I NEED TO GET OVER---NICE!!!

MONA ON THE RIGHT

Sweet Friend, Mona, took me to lunch today to celebrate my birthday. It was a few days late-but not her fault-I have been slightly preoccupied during December. We had a wonderful lunch and laughed and talked. She also brought me a wonderful surprise.

Mrs. Mona makes the MOST DELICIOUS egg nog I have ever tasted in my life. I don't even like egg nog---but hers is a wonder to behold! Let's just say---egg whites, ice cream, LUSH THICK SO RICH YOU WANT TO SLAP YOUR MOMMA! It is DELICIOUS and that is SUCH an inadequate description.

She usually gives me a quart and I am thrilled. This year--I GOT TWO QUARTS---HEAVEN! That should leave me satisfied for the entire year with NO need or desire for more.

Then-----I GOT NICE! I felt bad and thought I should share. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME!!! This is MY birthday present---who in the world shares their birthday present??????And yet----I find myself offering BC and our college adoptee a glass. WAIT THAT'S LESS FOR ME!!!! NO GOOD TURN GOES UNPUNISHED----I catch BC in the frig for his SECOND glass----AAAAARRRGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

What is wrong with me----I need to get over NICE...........One for all and all for ME!

Everytime I think of Mona's eggnog, I remember that time she fixed it at Mel's place. Never knew it took so many containers to make AND so much time. I still giggle when I think of that memory of Mona! What a wonderful birthday gift!
