Surprise…

It is no secret we have good friends in Okeechobee.  Gary and Anna Mae used to always come to Okee in the winter, but they have had too much going on with doctors and such, and didn’t make it. We happen to be staying closer than ever and had hoped to see them, well, for sure next year.

(Holly, David Luke, Glenda and me the fish on a line,  lol)

We make it to South Florida about twice each winter. We eat at Aunt Nee’s, Glenda or David Luke’s.  So this time I told them no home cooking we want to take you guys to lunch. So we did. They picked the Cow Town Cafe. We had a great time after lunch the girls were cleaning the table. I asked if they were trying to get the waitress’s tip. They laughed.

I am sitting there fat, dumb and happy waiting for the check, when out comes the waitress carrying that beautiful cake, also the cook and dishwasher and everyone starts singing happy birthday!

See how magically David Luke made that age correction!

 

Now, this one WAS A SURPRISE! I was flabbergasted, Holly, who had baked the cake handed me a knife to cut the cake and I murdered it I was so excited.  That was so very sweet of Glenda and David Luke. Especially sweet of Holly who baked the cake and it was a beautiful cake, a work of art, with pecan halves surrounding the pineapple slices. It was as delicious as it looked.

Amazing, birthday was the furthest thing from my mind. This was one that was pulled off as slick as grease!

Thanks to the guys down Okeechobee way, that was so sweet. (And special).

PS: Jan. 14, 1903 was my daddy’s Birthday, had he lived he would be 110 yrs old. I will always miss him. (Even thought Shirl was the pet!) Shirl sorta looked after dad in his last years, I know she misses him.
