Nothing Cookin’ at the Moment

The kitchen will be closed for a few days.  We are going to be celebrating my mother-in-law’s 90th birthday.  All of Larry’s siblings will be there, as well as most of the family and Ollie’s friends.  Larry is the youngest of 9, and everyone will be there to celebrate Viola, who everyone calls Ollie.  I got VERY lucky in the mother-in-law department.  Ollie is an angel.  Everyone loves her and she loves everyone back.  We are expecting over 100+ guests to help her celebrate at her big shindig.

Ollie is up front and center, surrounded by all her kids.  This picture is a few years old now, but it is a great family photo.  Larry is in the back, 2nd from the right  (he is the tallest and the youngest one).  In order, bottom row, Linda, #1, Ollie – The Grand Lady herself, Lori, #5, Jean, #8.  In the back row, Left to right, Ken, #4, Randy, #6, Jerry, #3, Ron, #7, Larry, #9 and Jim, #2.
