All the normal fuss seems to make everyone stressed at what's supposed to be a happy time.<br /><br />How cool to have an ornament with your street's name on it. <br /><br />Those tartan shoes are ace.Mimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578612522819952936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-21047774120617481032020-12-12T11:22:50.289-08:002020-12-12T11:22:50.289-08:00@Beth

I'm certain they know who I am and were laughing at me. <br /><br />@Vronni<br />They do grow up fast, which seems strange as we haven't aged a day ;)<br />That's exciting for your grandson to be off to college-we still have a couple years to go before that happens. <br />Have a good week!<br /><br />@Ann<br />Root beer sounds disgusting on paper with things like wintergreen, clove, anise, liqorice, plums, etc. but somehow it all sort of comes together into an herbal/sweet concoction. I don't drink it, but when I was younger I could be tempted by a root beer float which has the addition of a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Again, it is better than it sounds! If you ever get the chance, try it though every brand has a different concoction of herbs. The better ones are brewed with yeast like a ginger beer. <br />I am now a week out from baking the cake and the panic is just starting to set in! Fingers crossed that my vision meets up with the execution. <br /><br />@Emily<br />I also have a Mimi from the Drew Carey show doll-but I think she'd easily win any fights for pride of place on the tree! <br />The cakes are fun, and some have turned out better than others. One year for his half birthday he just wanted a cake in the shape of a bottle of elmer's glue (no idea why). Hopefully this will turn out well. <br /><br />@Beate<br />Thank you! <br />We would have a grand time together at a party. <br />Stay well and safe. <br /><br />@Vix<br />I have my "Going out bag" that wipes clean with antiseptic. There's no way on earth I'd take my precious bags out in a pandemic. Weather stations are fascinating-you can really nerd-out and get lost in the minutia of data. Because everything goes online, the data can be tracked across months and years, which is also fascinating. It has however been a challenge keeping the squirrel from swinging off the wind metre. <br /><br />@Bibi<br />Thank you. <br />The sound of root beer liquor is...not good, but it might be ok for baking? I'm glad Danny found a hobby with plenty of choice. If he'd been into grape soda we might have run out of options by now ;)<br /><br /><br /><br />Goodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17383404429461423998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-69379390769503918632020-12-10T22:36:14.548-08:002020-12-10T22:36:14.548-08:00Happy Hannukah!

That hand made jacket looks perfectly tailored to fit you.<br />Your home looks so festive & cozy. <br />IU never noticed you Iris Apfel/ Mr Magoo glasses have sparklies on the temples - divine!<br />A root beer themed yule log sounds amazing, do take pics. Dr McGillicuddy's Root Beer liqueur was a fave of my first husband's = might be worth searching for?Bibi Maizoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07383381158640915162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-29801111673243849722020-12-10T13:02:18.756-08:002020-12-10T13:02:18.756-08:00What an array of outfits!

You put me to shame - I've used the same bag since March, that's how often I need to carry anything these days!<br />Love Danny's snowy owl tree topper and the sound of a weather station. I'm tempted to get one for us as the BBC never gets it right.<br />As usual Xmas has taken me by surprise, I try to ignore it but it comes back and bites me on the bum in the end. I suppose I'd better start scouring eBay for gifts. <br />Stay safe! xxx<br />Vixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05263970600699632661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-82189253008626096952020-12-10T11:52:24.277-08:002020-12-10T11:52:24.277-08:00happy channukah!

I'm now convinced that every woman needs to own a few red and black plaid items because they're so versatile and fun. Depending on how it's styled, it can say "Merry Christmas" or "Catholic schoolgirl" or "lumberjack" or "1900s grunge rocker" or "Scotswoman." And it can even be styled conservatively to go to work in an office building (but where's the fun in that?).<br /><br />Any mom who makes cookies with a periodic table theme deserves an award. He's so lucky to have you. <br /><br />You did a great job decorating. The lights look beautiful. I may have to get a rosemary mini-tree myself.

That's how I've been doing Christmas for years! <br />I've been enjoying all your festive outfits, my favourite being the last one. Well, I hope not the last: do keep them coming! <br />Danny really deserved that new weather station, as well as the root beer treats. Not sure that I ever tasted root beer. Do they even sell that here in Belgium, I wonder? Can't wait to see the cake! <br />Your living room does look very atmospheric with all those lights. Why limit them to Christmas indeed, especially as they make you happy. We do need all the happiness we can get! xxxPolyester Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05602613792584925087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-85693371568622789152020-12-10T09:28:29.542-08:002020-12-10T09:28:29.542-08:00What a range of fabulous outfits!

Brava! for both the effort and the result you achieved with the ensemble for shopping on a Monday at 6:00 AM. Dior earrings? But of course! What else would one wear with the skirt, the sweater, the beret and scarf?! One hopes the kid stacking frozen pizzas into the coolers was suitably impressed and the lass who rang up your purchases, inspired.<br />Persons whose cats set their floofy tails on fire around decorative candles appreciate mini-lights. This year I've hung strands on bookcases and patio trellises, and I agree there's no reason to take them down after the holidays this year. Let's light up the dark night of the pandemic! <br />(And I'd gladly offer the snowy owl a perch atop an old Winthrop secretary desk. He's a hoot.)<br />I envy your having a murder of crows to observe. Corvids are amazing birds. A birder headquartered in the grounds of an historic Indy university told me he's seen them hold trials and conduct funerals. And he swears they recognize and greet him.<br />Beth Waltzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02720634636307254576noreply@blogger.com
