Golden Afternoon.

This afternoon I met up with a couple of good friends, a few years ago one of her sons said we were like the Golden Girls (American sit com) from 1985. So it goes like this a text message arrives Hello Blanche and Dorothy fancy meeting up for lunch and a drink at 1pm love Rose.


Now I know we are not as old as the girls above portray but we are all in our middle 50's well we did get talking about getting older and what it's effects has. Memory loss was high on the (now I forgot what was I going to say) oh yes list. Then it was eye sight who needed glasses for reading and so on which also linked to the memory loss "where did I put my glasses". Next on the list was hearing sorry what did you say I didn't catch that and again to memory loss when we had to repeat the conversation nobody could remember.
We thought maybe some lunch would be a good idea and as the weather was not that good we had to eat inside we also washed it down with some sparkling Rose with cranberries added for those ladies that need it and it also was part of our 5 a day,Lunch consisted of


salad to keep us healthy again part of the five a day, weight watchers quiche with some nice warm bread. For desert we had Pecan Roulade
 which we also said could go as part of our daily intake and fresh cream ladies we need dairy to help with the osteoporosis. Boy were we feeling now what's that word again oh yes healthy and full. We all had a lovely laughter filled afternoon and our aches and pains were forgotten.
