Peanut Butter for the Holidays

When you're at the grocery store shopping for your holiday dinner remember all of those who can't afford to buy food. Buy some extra food to deliver to your local food pantries. See if they accept fresh produce. Make sure to include delicious & nutritious peanut butter. It's a very rewarding way to celebrate the holidays

Weather &peanut butter

After record-setting rains and flooding everywhere, the desert woke up this morning and smiled. The sun was out, the snow was on the mountains and the air was a crisp 60s.It was a true really-glad-to-be-alive day. My four-legged love, Paprika, and I went out for an invigorating walk.

And if that wasn't heavenly enough, Petra, the best masseuse in the whole world, arrived to give me a relaxing massage. Not to ever be outdone, Paprika always gets a massage, too, when Petra is here.

Of course, I feel blessed. Are you blessed, too? Do what I did - send a check to your favorite food pantry and tell them to include some nutritious peanut butter. OR bring the peanut butter and other foods high in nutrients to show thanks for all the good stuff you have.

Away We Go

In the wee hours of tomorrow morning, we're taking off for the desert. The sunshine will have to wait because it's rainy and cool. But we know the sun will soon be back out and the starry nights will soon delight us.
