Hello, again! I have been a very bad blogger, indeed. However, in my own defense, I have had so many wonderful happenings lately that I've had nary a moment to stop and record it on the intermaweb. And I do believe, one of the points of a blog is to blog about your life but not live-to-blog or do-to-blog or whatever. Ya feel me?
Today is the first day in weeks that I've had a moment to sit and write. My dear friend, Joy, came this weekend to celebrate my birthday and she just headed out on snowy roads to get back home to Spokane. I've got the laundry machines hummin' away, a 3 week old Sunday crossword puzzle, and the snow is falling so prettily; it's a perfect time to write.
I took a New Year's Eve trip to Sitka, AK, to surprise Colette for her 40th birthday (4 days late). Thanks to sweet Hannah for being my partner in crime on this. Colette was surprised! We had a fantastic new year's eve!! We went to Winter Skillet, one of Sitka's annual concerts. It was fantastic! Then we walked all over town, visiting lots of adult beverage consumption stations (BARS, yo), one even had a rockabilly band and dancing:
Sitka looks delightful and a place worth knowing better. The internet is glad to FINALLY have the definitive pronunciation of "croissant".

ReplyDeleteSometimes we call them "CROIK-SHONTS" which is indirectly mocking someone we know who misprounced them. HEE HEE! How very scrumptious they looked and I love the idea of a long cooking project like that to look forward to and remember. We have some dear friends who grew up in Sitka and whom I shared your pics with, too. Rio caption was funny! Great time=great post. Happy New Year CHER!
