I made the shrimp dip last evening.  I hope I don't forget to take it.

I had wanted to make parsnip pie today, but I honestly don't feel I have the energy. Maybe in an hour or two.

Today is also my mother's 86th birthday.  Here she is holding some random urchin.

Back to Pocketful of Miracles. I love the scenes between Peter Falk and Edward Everett Horton.

I don't think I've ever heard of a parsnip pie. Is it sweet or is it savory? Almost a meal by itself?

I'm up, I'm up - Merry Christmas!  I had to go do a quick errand and was surprised there were any cars on the street - it wasn't terrible but does no one stay home on Christmas morning anymore?

I think Christmas breakfast is quite popular, so people drive either to a restaurant or to family.

I only remember one Christmas of assembling toys. This Christmas morning, I assembled my new telescope. And both it and I are still standing.

That was quite a nice gift.

Maybe it's covered by Medicare.

I usually do laundry on Monday mornings and today was no exception. I had a few other little things to do, too, but now I am off for the day.

Heather Menzies Urich has passed away.....she played Louisa in the film version of The Sound of Music....and was Robert Urich's widow....

This is shock.  She was very active on FaceBook and posted daily about her life.....I guess she was diagnosed with brain cancer only last month......

I am home from a tasty brunch and delightful companions.  The main courses were a baked French toast casserole made with bread, eggs, cream cheese, peaches, blueberries, and lots of cinnamon and a spicy Mexican baked egg casserole with bits of sweet potato, taco chips, and other interesting items.

Annabelle and Thatch were delighted to see me home and more delighted to be fed.  Thatch is being coy and avoiding me, while Annabelle is focused on getting into the hall.  Fat chance tonight, Missy.
