Good  40ยบ cloudy morning. Yesterday it stayed cloudy until afternoon when we got sun and some blue sky!

A quick at Safeway for a few things (saw Jean and Marie there!) and then Ace for some cracked corn and home.

... and this day in 1929 was the birth of Patty's dear brother and my friend, Hal Tollison.....Hal passed away in 2008. RIP Hal


Later it was reruns for dinner. Chair, wine, TV... S.W.A.T. (if you haven't seen it, it's LAPD SWAT and they show a lot of LA in the scenes.), NYPD Blue, and the news. 


All I know. Nuff said. Happy Saturday. Ciao.

November 25th
Today is National Parfait Day.

A parfait consists of  layers of ice cream, whipped cream, and any combination of syrups and fruits.  Yes, it's basically a fancy word for a sundae. And, it's usually served in a fancy glass.
Celebrate this day by eating Parfaits. While chocolate is by far the favorite, use your imagination to create a wide range of single and mixed flavors.
Savor your favorite flavor of parfait, as you enjoy National Parfait Day.
