You all, I was just floored today when an incredible bouquet of flowers arrived at my door accompanied by a beautiful handwritten note!  It says "Dearest Meryl, from all (and I do mean ALL) your BetterMost Brokie friends!  We love ya ta bits!"  Whoever the talented writer is sketched a spoon-ready can of BetterMost beans and a cowboy hat, too!  ;D

The flowers are just GORGEOUS!  Roses and lilies and crocuses and sweet peas, all in shades of gold and lavender, with a wide satin lavender ribbon.  WOW!  I can't get over how sweet you all are to organize this for me.  It makes me cry to write this.  If there was any pain for me in having to turn 60 today, you just completely dispelled it!  :-*  :-*  :-*

On top of all the colorful posts of sheep and cymbal-crashing monks and High Priestesses and Heaths and amazing cakes, turkeys, berets, puppies, prostitutes, Scrabble games, dancin,' flowers, weird videos, kettle drums, booze, Big Apples and all, this is the fluffiest and most irresistible of icing!  8)  8)  8)

BROKIES,





:D :D :D
Heya Meryl!  It's so great to hear the flowers arrived! And, it's great to hear that they look nice.  The gold and lavendar might also be thought of as tan and blue for our Ennis and Jack.

It was truly a group effort.  Our wonderful John gets the credit as our foot soldier on the ground and fabulous artist.
 :-* :-* :-*

Enjoy High Priestess!

A little bird just spilled the beans to me!  I might have known!  Jimmy Olsen on a mission!  :)  ;D  And I hear Rich came up with the idea.  That rascal!  He's the greatest.  THANK YOU, each and every one!!!  :-*  :-*  :-*

Happy birthday, Meryl!

When I logged on, I thought---Meryl looked like a little boy when she was a kid! LOL. Then I figured out it was Heath.  :P 8)
