Has such a great time last October. It was great to celebrate with such long standing friends. Really looking forward to this next get together in August!

Ah, yes, the eclairs! Now who do you know who has ever made their own puff pastry? Mom really did go the extra mile with that one!

Hi CJ! Yum!! I also have very fond memories of that fudge! What a great tradition… Equal in deliciousness were your Mom’s eclairs!

Sue who? I thought we agreed mine was an unbirthday! In spite of reaching that milestone **(or should it read *%$#@*) it turned out to be a lovely occasion when shared with such great friends.

This whole “month-of-Simon” thing has gotten way out of hand, now I have to read about it on line?? It was definitely not a minute more than 3 1/2 weeks….

Groovy photo! As one of the lucky ones to be part of the birthday group, reminds me of how much fun you can have, even if you made it to milestone **! Its all in the company you keep. Lac Phillipe never looked so good – must be because it has such a beautiful variety of prairie girls in front of it!

Okay, have to comment on my own post! Just saw my third cover and it does, indeed, have a winter-themed cover!

Comment on The Road–A Must Read by CJ

Thanks for that recommendation Steve. I’m surprised McCarthy cares about Hollywood’s money. Isn’t he a virtual recluse with a very simple lifestyle?

McCarthy is a poet. His earlier works, those written before he discovered how much money there was in Hollywood, are picaresque masterpieces. If you have the stomach for it, try BLOOD MERIDIAN. It is wrenching, but if you read it as you would view Hieronymus Bosch’s “The Garden of Earthly Delights,” seeing the hideous as poetical visions, there are few books more rewarding.
