Happy Valentine's Day!

Here are some of my Valentine's We have an update on the baby chickens eggs: 13 out of 18 have a definite baby chicken inside. Here's a pic of what we saw: You can see the beginnings of a baby chick! How cool.
I tried to make some maple cream candy. It came out as maple caramel. It is still yummy. All the candy making books say to keep trying, so I guess I will. I usually have more success in the kitchen so it is hard on my ego to have to "practice" a recipe. Anyway....
We are looking forward to the long weekend. Thanks to Washington and Lincoln. If only we could get some candidates like them running in November. (Although I might not have voted for Lincoln). I definitely would have voted for Washington- I hear he was a real hottie. Not that I could have voted at all due to my lack of a ....an ability to own property. My thanks then really goes out to Elizabeth Cady Stanton, born in Johnstown, NY. I gotta give props to the lady who fought for our right to vote and just happened to be born in my (almost) hometown.
Check out this article (scroll to page 24) to see why I like this lady so much.
Anway, one more random thing. I like coffee. I like it strong, but not bitter. I like just one big cup. And I like it with lots and lots of real cream. I just thought you should know that about me. In case you ever need to order my coffee.
Well, I really have a lot of things I should be doing. Better go do them or I will be all stressed out when it is time for me to leave for class tonight.
Love you all! Happy Valentine's Day!
XOXO

Happy Valentine's Day to you too! I like the first picture--it reminds me of sunny, warm days when everything around me is frozen and white. Take Care~Carol

Thanks Carol! I love how you always post a comment- I was like-"Yay! I have a comment already!"
The pic of Joe and me is from when we went on a cruise with Rene (Joe's sis) and her husband Tim. I think we are in Key West in that pic. We rented mopeds- so fun.
TTFN!

Addition to original post:
I especially like the pic of Bri and Cade because Cade looks so handsome in it. Just look at those big beautiful blue eyes...When questioned by a reporter, his manager stated that he did not use any performance enhancing drugs, just crack. LOL.

I was going to comment on the "dear in the headlights" look Cade is giving you! He is like, "mom...not another picture...give it a rest"! Happy Valentine's Day my love!!!xoxoxo Kara

I don't normally comment on Jocelyn's blog, but I felt that I had at this time. I just needed to say that that picture of Cade is the worst picture in the world of him and I have no idea why should would put that on the internet where someone might actually see it, much less people who know us personally. I appologize for her!

Joce is that picture of you and Joey in Key West? It looks really familiar.

And Joe sitting on that looks like I would sitting on a kid's tricycle.

Oh yeah, Johnny- that's Key West all right. Who loves cruises?
ME! ME!

As I was looking at your pictures, Anthony comes up and says, "Wow that baby looks upa-sessed!" (Which is his word for obsessed) I laughed:)
