Day 352 - Sis

It was suggested to me that maybe adding food coloring this year would make the cookies more festive looking. I think it looks more like leftovers from Lady Gaga's dress.

Day 349 - Lisa

Fudge & Jazz:  doesn't get any sweeter!  Seeing the New Olreans Jazz Hall Band Creole Christmas show tonight @ the Atlanta Symphony Hall.  Take a listen http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=121617828

Day 349 - Sis



Glad we were able to enjoy a little New Orleans jazz before our trip starts in a few days. So good to hear and see these musicians. They brought a lot of joy to many people tonight.

Day 348 - Lisa

My first ever batch of Peanut Brittle.  I not fond of baking & candy making so consider this a victory.  I'd rather cook a huge meal!  I prefer a dash of this & pinch of that.  Baking requires precision & usually no garlic.  ;>

Day 348 - Sis

Sinus or a cold? Not sure but thought a nice yule log would make me feel better while I relaxed on the recliner and tried to breathe through at least one of my nostrils. Thanks ON DEMAND for providing this beautiful crackling fire. Doesn't matter if it didn't feature "smellovision" my sinuses or cold took care of that sense for me.

Day 347 - Lisa

I was a teeny bit shook up.

Day 347- Sis

There it was another interesting museum display I wasn't expecting. A machine that dispensed little balls of ice cream after you put money in it. I believe it was called DOTS but had nothing to do with the Department of Transportation, unless you're transported to another level after ingesting one.

345 Day - Sis

Part of the Arab world items displayed at the Fernbank Museum was this beautiful, I believe abalone, plaque with the Lord's Prayer inscribed on it. Stunning piece of work.

Day 345 - Lisa

Hasn't been a fun couple days dealing with bad weather, especially the black ice.

Not the best place to be sitting when you realize you are being spied on...

Day 344 - Sis

While having lunch at the Fernbank Museum I spotted these two guys. Don't know if they were suppose to be dancing or act excited about their live menu inside...................US!

Day 343 - Lisa

Look at my pretty mama with her first Christmas tree.  Be glad I never had kids, could you imagine?  LMAO!!!!

Day 343 - Sis


While at the Fernbank Museum in Atlanta I walked into a room and saw this display. I then saw beryl, a gem that's talked about frequently in the Bible when describing beautiful adornments, now I know why.

Day 342 - Lisa

Blue Poinsettas were brough to my attention because apparently they have them in New Orleans Square @ Disneyland this year. So I did some research.  All I have to say is NO, NO, NO!
