Broke my last spare pair of reading glasses an hour ago. Big sigh. I knew I should have gotten the two dozen value pack. 😱🙄😉🤓🙁 Well, I’m off to either CVS, or Sam’s Club. Fortunately, last night’s snow storm is over and the roads have been cleared, and it’s a balmy 30 degrees out there. […]

After the usual turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, Brussels sprouts, cranberry sauce, rolls, etc., our host had, not one, not two, not…[ok, we get the idea], but five, count them five different deserts from a (wonderful) desert place called Wouletts. They were: Pumpkin pie Cherry pie Apple pie Triple berry pie, and a Cranberry tart. The […]
