Christmas with Ken and Ivy

 An evening in Baton Rogue with friends. 

Delicious dinner at Parain’s including raw oysters, crab fingers, boudin balls, fried green tomatoes, eggplant parmigiana, fried shrimp, dirty rice, and two kinds of fish; a ride through Spanish Town for the outrageous Christmas decorations, and coffee martinis at Tsunami with a beautiful view of the river. 

Topped it off with a good night’s sleep and breakfast Sunday morning. 

What a treat!

Christmas

 





The spirit of Christmas is alive and well at our house. Thanks to Phyllis Mire for the gorgeous white camilla blooms. The angel celebrates a milestone birthday this year. I lovingly crafted her in 1984. Phyllis Mire

Wonderful Texas trip. Glad to be home! Just look at the color in the garden.

Fall Garden














 The roses are fading, our deciduous trees are losing their leaves and the pollinator garden is just about done. However, the yard is still glorious. The colors of the day are yellow and orange with splashes of white and pink. All that beauty AND it was cool enough for a long sleeved dress. Reasons enough for a celebratory brunch. What a wonderful Sunday.
