Your Momma

Que es mas mejor que un vaso grande de vino rojo y un fuego caliente??
Nada.

Status: Watching Bridget Jones's Diary on A&E channel, enjoying a delicious glass of red wine in front of the fire- just fruity enough, and watching husband take quasi-study break from test on Monday. I Just peeled a cucumber mask off my face. Well, actually it was supposed to peel off, but I had to scrub it off.

Story: Today I went to this sweet, little old lady seamstress to get my bridesmaid dress altered. After sharing my lower bobbin frustrations with her, she took me down to her sewing room and taught me how to work the ole Singer. I want to be good at sewing, but I just wish I could just wiggle my nose and be past the learning phase. Same with playing the guitar.

Memory: When I was around 6 or 7 years old, I decided to sleep in the living room so that I could speak with Santa when he came to deliver the presents. I remember waking up around 4:30 a.m. and there were no presents under the tree. What?! What had happened??? I began to scurry towards my parents' room to immediately alert the media and when I passed the dining room, I saw that the presents had been delivered by the piano. Oh, Santa. Anything to stay incognito, eh?

If you live in Erie, this is the month to go to Super Suppers. They have their "Favorites" menu going on and it is really good. You can pick up a supper(s) or go and prepare it yourself to freeze (less expensive). You won't regret it... unless you dislike delicious food. Then you should stick with...well, nevermind.

I dunno about sewing (well I can do a button) but when it comes to learning guitar, the secret is....
don't fret.

I hope those are Pennsylvania Red Wines asloshin your glasses.
New York Finger Lakes region is a good day trip for you guys too. Mucho vino por todos de la gente del mundo. Tu eres muy bonita , senorita.

Enough Habla. Plan a trip to Niagara Falls in the December ice. Lights are on both the American and Chinese side (my daughter thinks the Chinese are over the other side). The mist crystalizes into ice formations and the walk along the Niagara is breathtaking that time of year.

Google Letchworth State Park in New York for another day trip next year with friends. Awesome picnic and walk spot. Very few cadavers.

Last, Kinzua Dam backwaters are loaded with trails. (Down below Warren, PA) about a 2 hour ride. Get a bucket of Kentucky Fried and munch away as you walk the trails. Take camera. Fall is best, but I like January for the stillness and solitude.

Blessings and Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. :)
