FaceTime With Mom! Time with my parents has become so valuable. It brings a smile to my face learning their wisdom as well as being able to teach them some new things. Technology helps keep us connected, it also brings a new facet of joy and laughs. #vaughn & #janalee #momisms #carepackage received! https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp_5r_MOJ5gdrqv-4XWHPZOonTzgiAmExc5MR40/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Tried my luck braiding a crust today and taking an average chicken pot pie and making it fancy. I don’t always take this kind of time for myself but a like something a little special when having dinner with friends! Roasted chicken with fresh rosemary, thyme and parsley, potatoes, carrots, onions, garlic and peas in a home made chicken gravy. (No added salt 🧂for the heart contentious) Recipe modified from natashaskitchen.com (at Willow Glen, San Jose, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co32Slau6TVYth6JANXgA6uNk7lLxf_AEivG7g0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy Friday with another raving first time homebuyer who closed on his new condo today. We began the journey Jan 19th and keys were delivered February 3rd. That’s twelve business days to homeownership. We were able to be there to watch him open the door for the first time. Congratulations Joe!!!

Mom wanted me to make her a burger for lunch. So I made it her way right away. "One all beef patty, special sauce, lettuce, cheddar cheese, tomato, onion, pickles, bacon 🥓 on a sesame seed toasted bun. Nothing could be nicer than seeing the smile on her face!

Finally got my million dollar smile back! Some of you may remember that as a result of fainting from early heart failure I fell backwards and hit my head on a kitchen counter and concrete floor. I fractured 5 teeth as a result and have had a temporary solution for many years since the accident. This was a birthday present to myself to have them all fixed. This is happy at 53! https://www.instagram.com/p/CgNbgQvP62r/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
