OMG a Surprise

Wow what a day.

1st thing I picked up R from garage where her car , Blueberry was having oil change.

Then off to Blood Bank to donate Pheresis.

I do it about every month or 6 wks. It's nice to give back and

 I get to watch a movie with no interruptions.

Today I bruised worse than normal. When they removed the 1st needle all the returning blood flooded the return arm and popped the vein returning into my surrounding tissue.

Hence 2 huge lumps under my skin and advice to ice today frequently.

Oh well I'll be back in a few weeks to repeat the process (without the bruises I hope).
 

The OMG title referred to LN's surprise visit from a professional soccer player today.

Jack McInerney , a striker from Philadelphia Union Soccer team stopped by to say Hi!

How cool is that?

One of our neighbors/customers from next rd over has a daughter my older 2 went to school with.

Katie is dating Jack after friending him on FB and him accepting.

How cool is that too?

Anyhow they were home for Thanksgiving dinner a day early and stopped by.

Jack gave LN a signed team picture and visited with her awhile.

LN was a happy camper for sure.

I didn't  take a picture of them because LN said not to.

Personal autograph helped " sweeten the pie" so to speak.

Jack is 3rd from left , top row.

LN & Jack are both shy around strangers but Jack had her beat there.

He was very nice to take his family time to make a 13 yr old happy.

 

Otherwise today I supervised R baking our desserts for tomorrow.

She made a few things.

Seems she doesn't read recipes all the way through so her ...

1 pie became 2 because the recipe was doubled. Ahhh youth!

I'm sure they will be ate though. R offered to take one to her work Friday.

She's an assistant manager at a Rehoboth Beach outlet children's store so they will need food to make it through Black Friday and the weekend.

She also made a pumpkin roll.

I can not wait to slice into this.

I also made a dump cake with pineapple (my sil's favorite food) and cherries.

Instead of a boxed cake mix it calls for I made a homemade mix so I want to see how it turned out.

 

It 'll be a sweet Thanksgiving.

 

I hope everyone has a Happy Turkey Day and remembers to be Thankful!
