Riley, like all girls, loves to 'do lunch'

Riley was very impressed with the menu at the Robin's Nest restaurant in Almonte, Ont.

The food was fantastic, soup just like mom's and fresh, fresh bread. To add to the excitement for Riley there was a store attached that was adorned with Christmas trees and all things glittery. We had a fun walk about and she definitely loves the colour red.

"On Nan, just look at all the different kinds of pie here"
"Someday Riley, someday" :)

"Bring on the menu"

Riley throws a kiss to all my blogger friends *smack*

After a lovely and emotional ceremony for our Fallen Soldiers we went to our local nursery to find a little Christmas tree. I was quickly told that a real tree would not do well in my kitchen if I was to bring it in now. It would start to bud **ah!** I didn't want that so I trotted off with a FAKE ONE but oh...it is so cute. It's looks like something from a story book. Did I really find an ornament with a rolling pin?....jackpot!I sure did and that one will honour my  doggy biscuit business that I successfully sold last October.

The weather here is fabulous. It's cool, crisp, sunny and bright. The perfect day filled with gratitude, excitement, time with my grand-daughter and her lovely parents and then off to care for Helma & my kitty-clients. Makes you feel very blessed! What are you doing tonight? Me?.... I'm playing with my story-book tree.


hugs, Deb
