Written by Sue, Monday evening, January 27, 2014......... today was sunny, temps. 68 degrees
What a pleasant surprise this morning, I stopped by the dining room and what to my wondering eyes appeared, not a sleigh with reindeer, but this beautiful cactus blooming
Have you ever examined a flowering cactus bloom up close, absolutely stunning!
The day gets even better, my mom called asked if we would stop by while out running errands. She had this "goodies box" for us. A "goody box" is a box filled with goodies with lots of love in it. She said "I knew the snow was coming and thought you might need some warm boots, (and were they ever warm, faux fur inside),a few sweet clementines,walnuts, and here are a few extras too."
And if that wasn't enough, it gets even better, she hands me a box with this beautiful cannister set, by Susan Winget, I could hardly wait to get home and set it out!
Some might would say, I am spoiled, but Mr P. says I am just loved a lot. ~smile~
The other surprise, which I am not sure how I feel about it, is, the weatherman is predicting 6 to 12 inches of snow, tomorrow! I am not a snowbird, I like to see it fall, and maybe stay for a few days, but with the extra cold temps., coming I have a feeling it might decide to wear its "welcome" out! So for now I am going to enjoy our "Goody Box", and have my camera ready! Stay tuned.
Enjoy your evening,
Hugs,
Sue
