The Coffee House

The Basil and Miss Maggie.

Mary Lou picked up some pine nuts yesterday, so it’s Pesto Time.

Smoke, that's about the same as here! Saying is, if you don't like the weather wait a day, it'll change.

It sort of snowed, looked more like mist and there's a coating on driveways. I hope it melts. Staying in out of the cold today, and heading out and about tomorrow, so don't really want snow yet.

Watching Monk watching a San Jose Sharks game, then there's a major jr. game on, then college and NHL games - no such thing as too much hockey.

Leo hang in there, I forget that you're on the staff schedule. That's how it is here, the students and instructors and professors are done but offices are still open; they close around Christmas and New Years. Glad you're getting a break from teaching a class next semester.

Hang on Leo, Leo hang on!

Dave watched about the last 3/4 of the Carol Burnett 50 year show.
Does anyone else think that was one of the funniest shows EVER?
Tim Conway and Harvey Corman.... could it get any funnier?

The sauce has made the house smell amazing, and we’ve decided to skip the meatballs and just enjoy the sauce with some well-cooked pasta and some nice parm.

We are going to make a batch of rolled sugar cookies when the kids are in bed, and I think White Christmas is on the docket tonight.

Fini.

Well, my friend is doing pretty well all things considered. He recognized me and was in good spirits. However, he kept waiting for his wife to show up and said she was coming for lunch. That would be a miracle. I am going to pick him up for church tomorrow, hopefully that will go well. His son in law and wife showed up and they were good with me taking him to church tomorrow. It was a little awkward but all went well.

Good to know that they were visiting.

White Christmas is my favorite classic Christmas movie (slight edge over It’s A Wonderful Life).

I prefer Holiday Inn, actually. Little tidbit: the song "White Christmas" was not introduced in the movie of the same name. It was featured in Holiday Inn.

Thanks, Sharon. I'll even forgive the Ohio State video (I'm dating a man from a hard-core Michigan family...we don't like Ohio State.)

I don't know about EVER, but it's damn funny. I watched it all the time as a kid, and I still laugh until it hurts when I watch that one Mama's family skit when Tim Conway started ad-libbing the story about the elephants.

Pinot Noir, a Jacqueline Bahue from the Santa Rita Hills in Santa Barbara County. Delish, especially when served via Gary’s new aerator. We’re enjoying a glass in the patio.

A lovely afternoons in the patio.

Raspberry cosmo, from the booze aisle at Kappy’s Liquors in multiple locations near you. A special blend of Tito’s vodka, chambord and cran/raspberry mix with a splash of lime juice. Delish when served via Squarepeg’s martini shaker. Enjoying a glass on the sectional. Watching Stranger Things Season 1 Episode 1.

Dave never did have Rum and Coke.
We don't have a patio.
He need not awaken at 4am tomorrow but did this morning. When last week's Blue Bloods is over I'm going to bed.

Snow busted here. I don’t think we even have an inch on the ground. It’s been kind of sleety all day.

It’s all good though...we’ll get our shots this winter.

 

[SquarePeg36 7]

We’ve got about 4” I would estimate. It’s still in the pretty stage.

Maybe 2" on the grass, only a couple patches on the pavement.

Get over to the POTM and vote, if you haven't -- we're working on a three-way tie!
