The chickens are finally all doing their job and we are getting 4-5 eggs a day! We are making sure that my MIL's friend is kept in stock with eggs as she is on a tight budget and goes through a lot of eggs. I did a couple of egg dishes for dinner on Monday night. I need to hard boil some tonight for deviled eggs. Greg used a few today making the birthday cheesecake with raspberries for the birthday boy.
Today, (Thursday) Aidan turned 17! How did that happen? We went out to dinner at Texas Roadhouse on Wednesday evening for his birthday. I was surprised how busy it was around 7PM mid week. He has had a great week, with a 2nd place Academic Team win at Regionals on Tuesday (North Central Florida). Not too shabby after the surprise County win last month. 2 Nice trophies for the School case.
My FIL was finally moved to rehab on Tuesday. He is doing much better today when we visited after getting a good nights sleep. He has quite the cold, but it appears they are doing a good job with medicines for it. He was taken off to PT as we were getting ready to leave today.
That gave me the afternoon to do a little sewing. I had planned to make the 'alternate' bird in the air blocks in blue, but I guess I made the actual BITA blocks by mistake! Oh well, 4 less to make. I think I am down to needing 17 now.
I made one 16 patch with 2.5 inch blocks. I dug deep into the blue bin and found some fun prints I had forgotten I had.
I'll link up Saturday with the RSC.

sorry the FIL is having health issues again but then at his age is an ongoing thing I know. Happy Birthday to the boy! and those eggs - not to pay egg prices now if you can
Whoa 17 --it's is amazing how quickly the years fly by...soon college days...my son, the baby of our family, will turn 55 this month!! Now how did that happen??? I've been looking at my old scrapbooks when the kids were still little--fun days...enjoy these years...
Love your all blue blocks==so pretty hugs, Julierose
Happy Birthday to your boy! Texas Roadhouse is always our go-to birthday dinner place, too. That's good timing that the chickens are laying again! That will save you some money. Pretty birds in the air blocks in blue!
Love those colored eggs! Happy birthday to Aiden -they grow up so fast! Your blue/white blocks are so pretty. ~Jeanne
I too have to say, wow, Aiden is 17! Where did those years go! And what an accomplished fellow he is! Pretty blocks you are making too, Deb.
Happy birthday, A!! Nice work on the BLUE sewing, Deb. So glad to hear that your FIL is out of the hospital and off to rehab!
Boy those kids grow up fast, don’t they? Texas Roadhouse is a place I like to eat too. But the nearest one is 150 miles away. It’s still cold here. My friends who have chickens are only getting 2-3 eggs a day. Not enough to sell as they usually do. Pretty blue Birds in the Air blocks. I don’t think I have ever made that block.
They do grow up quick, don't they. You have stitched some pretty blue blocks.
Such pretty blocks! Congratulations to Aiden and such good news on your FIL. Now -- about those chickens & eggs -- show-off!!! Hahahahaha! Actually, wishing we were neighbors! *wink*
