Here’s another of my riveting, independent films, this one entitled HR & Babbling Brook Smile …

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.
1. This old tree we saw near us on a Thanksgiving morning walk in Savannah’s Colonial Park Cemetery.

Do you see what I see on his trunk?

In the lower half, there’s a Big Bunny with gigantic upward ears!
And if you forget the bunny and look again at the entire trunk, there’s a Brown Monster with a three-pronged crown, green tongue and menacingly raised arms! Watch out!

2. On the other hand, here’s a quartet of happily handsome fellows: son-in-law Scott and three grandsons Jack, Gabriel and Daniel searching for the perfect Christmas tree.

3. A bountiful Thanksgiving Feast yesterday.






4. Moments in life when you feel JOY.
5. And finally, I’m happily thankful for HR.

May you have a BIG weekend ahead!

A Few Things for which I Give Thanks:
1. My breath. In. Out. In. Out.
2. This trash I saw yesterday morning in our alley.


Couldn’t that be in an art gallery? The browns, grays, beige, white.
Or is my old age catching up with me?
3. Yummy lunch at Cracker Barrel with Robert’s daughter and son.

4. Grandson Gabriel starting AS A FRESHMAN on his high school VARSITY basketball team.



5. Always, ALWAYS, having enough food to eat. (Everybody doesn’t.)
6. Shoes.
7. Living so close to the ocean.


8. The privilege of voting (even when it doesn’t go our way).

9. The ability to WALK. What a blessing!

10. Indoor plants.

11. All of you fellow bloggers.

Tell me, what are you thankful for on this beautiful day?
“Saucy”



So today, HR and I had lunch with our dear friends Don and Jim at the salad-ly delicious Urban Deli within walking distance of us here in historic district Savannah.
Beyond yummy food.
Especially their salads.
I opted for the brussels sprouts salad, along with a healthy helping of their red beet salad.
I consumed it far too quickly, never thinking about taking a photo remembrance.
Afterwards, as we were sitting, stuffed, Savannah fall conversing, I looked down on my plate …

And saw a still life masterpiece.



Marveling this morn …
My first Thanksgiving/Christmas Holiday Sweet for 2024 …

Sweet Potato Pie
Robert made a Brown Sugar Nutty Topping, but I would only let him put it on half the pie.
Why?
I’m glad you asked.
My mother‘s favorite holiday pie was sweet potato. And she liked it plain without any fancy-smancy.
So that’s why 1/2 of the pie is PRETTY Plain.



My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.
1. A young HR’s new photo frame I recently found.


2. An overflowing citrus tree near us here in downtown Savannah.

3. My Arthritis Pain. Okay, that needs explanation. I’m Happy that I have a body. A body including wrists, knees and a lower back, all with the ability to FEEl.

Does that make any sense at all?
4. A wonderful gathering at our church Wednesday evening to help process and manage anxiety that some of us are feeling concerning the election.

5. A bookish bench we saw recently along the Augusta GA Riverwalk.

May you find a place to sit joyfully this weekend.
