Ta Dahhhhh!

What a lovely surprise: LadyCat has sent an award my way. In accepting this award, I have been asked to...

*thank and link back to the person that awarded me
*share 7 things about myself
*pay it forward to 15 recently discovered bloggers (oops!)
*contact those bloggers about the award

OK, easy enough, except for 15 "recently discovered bloggers" part. I have only one, and here she is!


This blog, written by a good friend, is a wonderful mix of fun photos, down-to-earth thinking, recipes, an occasional video, and sound advice on fitness. I am a huge fan.



Now, for the 7 things about myself.
1. I love to eat tuna fish, preferably in a big, fat sandwich with a fair amount of mayo.
2. I have 3 wonderful and very active grandsons ages eight, five and four.
3. I own 2 pugs, Winnie and Cleo, and 2 cats, Ruby and Zorro.
4. I root for the Cal Bears, often unsuccessfully, but I'm there, win or lose.
5. I collect waaaay too many things.
6. I am hooked on the Beverly Hills Housewives, I am ashamed to say.
7. I enjoy cooking, especially anything in the pasta department.

So, a big thank you to LadyCat. I am delighted and, of course, am a devoted follower of her very elegant blog.

Year of the Rabbit

Creative Tuesday - New Year


May the poor find wealth,
Those weak with sorrow find joy.
May the forlorn find new hope,
Constant happiness and prosperity.

May the frightened cease to be afraid,
And those bound be free.
May the weak find power,
And may their hearts join in friendship.

Dalai Lama



Wishing you all a happy and healthy new year!
