Good Friends -- Ruby (Red) Tuesday --

[large picture] [extra large]

This Beanie Baby's name is "Bandage" with a birthday of December 3, 2004

Feel under the weather today?
I'll help chase your blues away
A smile's the best medicine, it's true
And that's my get well wish to you!

My golfing buddy, Charles W's wife, Lynn brought this for me. She brought a bucket of chicken and sausage gumbo too! Lynn and Charles have been our friends for many years, ever since we moved up to Montgomery for our retirement.

There was more Red sausage the first day. This bowl of gumbo is my last, Mrs. Jim and I had been eating it for three very nice meals.

He who is a friend is always a friend,
and a brother is born for the time of stress.

  4. When one isn't feeling well, three of the most comforting things are a Teddy Bear, a bowl of hot soup, and a good friend. How lucky you were to get all three at once!

  5. That gumbo looks outstanding, a treat anytime of the year. Not being from or living in the South, I a gumbo more like a soup, a stew or a combination of the two? It is mouth watering for sure!

  16. Seeing that Beanie Baby teddy bear made me sad. He's so cute. I stopped collecting the bears back in June of 2005 when I was torn away from my job. I have loads of the bears, all stashed in totes in their own plastic bags with plastic on their tags. Now what do I do with all of them?
    That soup looks good BTW.

  17. I came over to cheer you up! You sure do enjoy posting about food. BTW ... a followup to your comment over at Dr. B's blog ... I think that new grandbaby has her grandpa's eyes .. she's a real cutie! Daughter looks like her mother. Are you behaving? I know when you're not feeling well you can be a little grouchy to the Mrs. Hang in there ..
