We were up by 7 a.m. this morning, so we could do last-minute tasks before family came. Daughter-in-Law, Granddaughter, and two great-grandsons arrived around 10:30 a.m. We had a good visit both before and after lunch, and I took lots of snapshots of both great-grandsons, though I only posted the ones of the baby (see previous post).
We all enjoyed the chicken, seasoned with spices other than salt, dusted with flour, and lightly fried in a dab of olive oil plus cooking spray. The chicken was served with no salt added potatoes mashed with skim milk, and white gravy from a package (the only sinful part of the meal), no salt added whole kernel corn, and low sodium, low fat biscuits. For dessert, we had peach/pear/apple cobbler with a choice of regular or fat free ice cream.
After lunch, thirteen-year-old great-grandson, who has grown and gotten even more handsome since I saw him several months ago, entertained us playing his saxophone. And then we went outdoors for group snapshots before family left for home around 3 p.m. It was just such a nice day.
I spent the rest of the afternoon uploading photos to the one-hour service, and to blogger, as well as reading the Sunday newspaper, and washing a couple of loads of clothes.
Mother came over about 5:30, and we all had cold, sliced, fried chicken breast sandwiches, and cantaloupe, for supper. After that, Mother went home, and Hubbie and I watched TV for a while, before we went to an outdoor movie at 8:30.
Tonight we saw, "Clue," a spoof on the board game, where Colonel Mustard, Mrs. Peacock, and others try to solve murders (who killed who, with what weapon). This 1985 PG movie is a comedy, of course, starring Eileen Brennan, Tim Curry, Madeline Kahn, Christopher Lloyd, and Michael McKean.
