We've had an awesome visit so far at Nan and Lou's Went to a street fair on Sunday - it was a sunny and 70 degree day - perfect! Had pizza, then went our own ways - Nan and I shared a caramel/chocolate apple - yum! Bought fudge to go with our Electric Raspberry Wine for an after-dinner treat once in a while. The only other accomplishment is to help Nan with some packing as they are moving into their motorhome full time...what to save - keep - move out there--decisions-decisions.
This morning, Nan and I started our Christmas cookie baking - made Chocolate balls (melted choc. chips, vanilla wafers, concentrated orange juice and powdered sugar, rolled into balls and into granulated sugar. Supposed to ripen for 10 days before eating--good luck with that! These are from both of our childhoods! Then mixed up Grandma's molasses cookies and put choc. chips in middle while still hot out of the oven. Also made Mexican wedding cakes - butter cookie dough wrapped around a half pecan to make a loaf and then baked and powder sugared when almost cool. Still a couple to make yet, I think. Also such a fun time with best friend! We used to do this as kids! But of course, we were more ambitions - cut out cookies and many kinds...we're more sensible now...lol.
Jerry's been working under the kitchen sink - eliminating water pump from rattling and other misc. stuff.
Raining yesterday and today. We have "Lake Davenport" in the sand in front of our rig. Glad we have gravel under Kanga or we might we sinking in the sand..what a picture!
Looked on the AZ PGR website and the only this this week is up in Mesa - 2 hrs north - an American Legion honor PGR night - would have been fun to go to.
Nan and I are planning Christmas Eve dinner and Christmas Day Brunch... Guess that's all for now.
Hugs & love! A/S
