Hello Everyone,
I can't remember anymore what I have posted & what I haven't!! Hopefully I am not to repetative!! This is just on one of the back roads near Asti, CA. near where Italian Swiss Colony once existed. I like the clouds.. Anyone remember that Little Ole' Winemaker?
Sandi, that is great that you can post from goodreads. I don't know if I have ever been on that website. Do I need to be? I am so sorry to hear that you & your friend had to cancel the plans to go to a season of musicals. That is something that I would love to do. We do have some great entertainment in this area. If I had more money I would take advantage of that more often. It sounds like your Christmas was good, including the food.
Trudy, it has been ages since I made applesauce. I've never used a fruit press have no idea what it is! You are smart to let someone else cook the turkey. Putting on that meal is a lot of work. Did you have a good day with your friend. I'll keep my fingers crossed that she is able to beat the cancer. She has all my good wishes.
As you all know I was going to my daughter's yesterday. We had a very nice day despite the fact that it rained almost the whole day. After being cooped up in the house all day we ended up going for a drive. It was nice to get out plus there was very little traffic on the roads we were on. We ended the drive looking at Christmas lights & outside decorations. My grandson gave me a beautiful orchid along with the instructions to find a concert I want to see so he could get tickets to take me. I just love that! He is such a good guy. My daughter gave me a gift card to TJMaxx, Marshalls & Home Goods. Sadly there is no Home Goods near us but the gift card is for any of the three. I frequently shop at TJ Maxx & Marshalls. She also gave me some chocolate candy and a book I wanted for day hikes from the bay area north. I told her exactly this book. It is small enough to take along in the back pack without adding a lot of weight. Can't wait to go somewhere new!
Today we are getting a break from the rain. It was sorta sunny, sorta cloudy, some blue sky. I forget what tomorrow will bring. I know there is more rain later in the week. Santa Rosa is at 168% of normal. We have had a lot of rain so far.
I am going to go finish my book! I think there is only a page or two. Nora Roberts last book in the Boonsboro Inn series is waiting for me, a Catherine Mann book & I honestly can't remember what else is waiting there for me! Lots, some of which I've had a long time but they get shoved aside for something that can't wait or for library books!
See you all soon! Anyone have plans for New Year's Eve or what they will be doing in the new year? This picture is taken along the same road. I just love the new green we get when the rain gets rid of that "golden California hills" look!!! Probably in the next couple of weeks, depending on weather, I'll be out improving my photography skills. Or at least trying to improve!
Have a good evening, happy reading,
Donna M
