Leo's Rule !!!!!!!

I am so blessed to have such wonderful friends and family to help me celebrate my birthday with style and grace. Being "the LEO" that I am, my birthday is all about ME......centered around ME....and last a whole month, at least. Usually it runs from my first present received, which this year my super efficient friend Delta Mae that lives up on the big River at Memphis sent me some cool Elvis stuff before August even arrived...........go Mae !! And I'm sure I have a couple more gifts out there to stretch the celebration on out till Labor Day !!



Linder (see post below) came and slept over, my friends all met for cocktails and good eats and then we ventured out to the local bar and drank and danced the night away with "High Frequency". Great dance band !! Darell only dropped me on the dance floor once, but we recovered nicely !!

Sunday started out with "crack" coffee, which consist of good strong Community Coffee, with a touch of Half & Half, Kahlua, and Bailey's Irish cream or any combination of your choice. I just happen to receive both liquors for gifts........are my friends great or what?? That helped ease the bad head from the fun night out. My hubby and his friend Sam treated us all to a birthday fish fry Sunday afternoon. Much beer and fried white perch were consumed and people trickled by through out the afternoon, we had several shifts and the "boys" cooked mess after mess of fish !!

We had plenty of filets but the best is "butterfly" White Perch, it gives all the flavor of whole fish on the bone, which is the BEST way to go, but you don't have to pick with the nasty bones. Here is a good shot of a standing perch.......they didn't last long.



The day ended with everyone fat and full and headed home to start a new week.....but I have a feeling my celebration is NOT OVER YET !!!!! I"ll keep ya posted........bug
