... and this is just ONE reason why I love my neighbour :)
Our kitchen - 5:00 p.m. (ish). I was making supper (aka taking containers of leftovers out of the fridge :D). Phone rings, hubby answers it, then I hear ... "OK, I'll tell her." "Hey Sandra - that was Maria - she says that if you grab a plate and go to her fence ..." - at which point I grabbed a plate and ran like the wind. not listening to anything else he had to say :D I knew what she was baking today, so I knew what was coming! Two minutes later I'm in her kitchen (after receiving kisses from Xena the dobie, who greeted me at the fence), and she's carving us off a hunk of homemade zucchini cinnamon cake, freshly baked, and frosted by her son Stelio. LOOK AT THIS CAKE! I put the butter in the photo to give you an idea of how big these pieces are - that's a dinner sized plate - not a little dessert plate! I've already eaten my piece, LOL. Hubby got called out on a service call before he could eat dessert - his piece may be in mortal danger, IYKWIM :D I love my neighbour - and not just because she bakes us treats :D She's rather ... ummm ... raunchy ... ummmm ... dirty ... saucy ... - it's like seeing a younger ME over the fence - one that's a better cook, lol! We get along very well - I'm so so lucky!
I'm on my touch screen laptop and can't figure out how to move this photo up so it's beside the text instead of below it.I also can't figure out how to get rid of the stupid pop-up keyboard that keeps showing up - this is a laptop, not a tablet, and I have a full keyboard, but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to get rid of it! Annoying beyond belief - especially since it just started showing up a couple of months ago out of nowhere, and none of the solutions I find online, work to elininate it. Sometimes, technology is a royal PITA! But then I eat cake and forget my problems :D Problem solved, finally - so NOW I can eat cake :D

Wow - I have GOT to meet my neighbors, lol - maybe one of them can cook!
ReplyDeleteNeighbors who can cook and sew,
ReplyDelete... are the best neighbours, lol!
DeleteLucky girl!!!
ReplyDeleteEvery once in a while, our neighbors (who are Mexican) will invite us over for dinner when they are cooking on the grill or having a family party, and the food is always fabulous and something that I don't know how to cook, so it's great! Good neighbors are great!
ReplyDeleteWhat s fab neighbour ... And well done on sorting the computer
ReplyDeleteI am sure that your neighbour has just as many nice things to say about you too Sandra! I hope you managed to save a little bit of that cake for your hard-working hubby :)
ReplyDeleteI am jealous. My neighbors have never baked for me. One did give me a bottle of wine for planting some flowers for him last year. Actually, now that I think about it, I would prefer cake.
