STILL HERE

Yes, I am still around, just very busy trying to get two grandchildren to and from their jobs every day and having the baby with me on one round-about.  Soooo, much gas used and is a real problem.  I also had a sorority regional luncheon and our chapter had the centerpieces to do and now that is finally out of the way.  Now trying to concentrate on Christmas.  My youngest son had Thanksgiving at his home and we had all the favorite dishes for dinner.  But neither of us is into cooking a big meal again for Christmas, so we think we will be at his home again, but will only have finger sandwiches, smokey links, snacks, drinks, that way no one has to cook unless they want to bring a hot dish to share.  Will still be a good evening.

                                                       
                                                               ICED PUNCH

My grandson who had been out of work for 8 months obtained a job at Orban's Nursery, largest poinsetta grower in the U.S. and local through his cousin.  We are praying they will keep him as a permanent-full time employee after season.  This poinsetta is called Iced Punch and the pic does not do it justice at all.  I attended their Open House and had no idea of the number of different varities they grow.  They just got better and better.

I plan to get the cards I am doing for Christmas posted next Wednesday for WOYWW.  Have a wonderful weekend.
