Hi, today I am grateful for the new iPhone 15 Pro Max. For the past several years I have splurged and upgraded to the newest phone model. It goes back to my techie obsession and I will need to work on this. 🤔
Take Care. Best wishes, Debra

Hi, today I am grateful for technology. I absolutely enjoy the pleasure my laptop, computer gear, cellphone and all the things that go with the techie stuff brings to me. I have been taking digital pictures for over 20 years now. Most of my saved files are on CDs and the newer laptops and PCs do not have the DVD/CD drives anymore. At least my newest laptop does not. My newest techie purchase was the external DVD/CD drive. I had so much fun looking thru my past images last evening and today!

Hi, I am amazed at how many new foods I have tried. Not all new, but new ways of preparing foods. This is all because of Weight Watchers. One example is the simple banana.🍌 NEVER did it occur to me to eat frozen bananas until I was introduced to delicious smoothies! For sure, today I am grateful for discovering how delicious frozen bananas taste.

Hi, my day began great. I made a chocolate banana smoothie and it was delicious. This set the day off to a wonderful start. For this being a Monday, this small delight was greatly welcomed! For this, I am very grateful.
I had heard of smoothies, but I have never had one. Imagine that! Well, I went to Amazon and bought the Nutribullet Personal Blender. Looked up a Weight Watchers recipe and decided next time my grand daughters came over, I’d have them show me how to use the blender. They have smoothies quite often at their house and I knew Brie would be able to show me!
Did you notice I said chocolate banana smoothie? Chocolate and Weight Watchers do not play well with each other point wise. The recipe called for Whey (protein) and specifically chocolate whey. I had no idea what this was. Let alone if I would like it. And the kicker was, it is expensive, yikes! 😲
Yesterday while Brie was following the recipe, she advised me that you don’t need a recipe, ‘Just add what ever you want, Grandma.’ 😂 Well, this morning I altered the recipe. It called for water 6 oz and then 6 oz milk. Today I did not add the water instead used 12 oz milk. I enjoyed the flavor this morning more so than yesterday’s smoothie.
In order shown add the following:
The next time I make a smoothie, I will try adding frozen fruit. Per my Google search, the frozen fruit will thicken the drink. I will be doing more searches for smoothies. This new found favorite has me excited to try different variations!

Hi, this was a wonderful weekend. Simply perfect weather, family time and good food! I am grateful for the time spent with my husband, son, daughter, son n law and grand girls.
Shaune (son n law) will be going pheasant hunting opening weekend and wanted to get Hazel (German short hair) some training/practice in prior to the hunting weekend. So they came out to work Hazel. Of course Kevin and I was happy to have them out. I called Adam to invite him over and he also joined us.
Erika and her family went down to the pond/cabin before we ate dinner. She shared the above images with me. After they finished working Hazel they came back to the house and we ate the roast lunch Kevin made. Yesterday we had green bean casserole left over from his work’s picnic. We finished that up with the roast. Good food today and yesterday!
Not often do we get Kevin in photos. Erika had taken the below image as well. I appreciate any time and any image taken of Kevin.

Hi, today was very pleasant with good conversations and tasty food. I am grateful for the picnic Kevin’s work had today. The weather today was perfect. Hot Dogs and Hamburgers were served and we were asked to bring a covered dish. The food was delicious and it was fun visiting with Kevin’s co-workers and their spouses. Normally I would have taken pictures, however as I have mentioned, Kevin does not like being in them. With this being his work, I never even considered whipping out my phone! 🙂
Take Care. Best wishes, Debra
