The morning sky was glowing for a short time and I took a shot out in the cold. The sun comes up behind my neighbor's house but I still can see the effects from it.
Joy is a gift of banana bread from a guest who arrives at our house for afternoon tea. It is filled with raisins and walnuts and that takes it further than just banana bread. It isvery large so we are going to freeze half of it.
My wife's village is a big hit for visitors to see when they come to our house. People ask as to how it gets to be a big collection. I say that she gets gifted a piece a year and in the past forty years of marriage she does get to have a big city. She didn't really start collecting them until the past 15 or 20 years.
We got our first batch of Christmas gifts mailed out today. It won't arrive until after the special day but it is fun whenever they receive it. Our other batch is one of many presents needing to be wrapped and then me finding boxes for the items to use for shipping. Our weather is better which makes going to do shopping more pleasant. I was out the past two mornings and it was almost tolerable. The crowd on Monday was insane as everyone looked like they wear doing panic buying. This early morning I didn't have any crowd to fight with and I finished shopping for our kids. I have some to shop for yet for my wife but that will be easy when you live in a big city with lots of stores that are less than five miles away from where I live.
Thanks for stopping by today.
