A Slow Saturday

When you don't get up very early and it's almost noon by the time you get showers and breakfast done, it doesn't leave a whole lot of day. It was actually a bit warmer today. I was able to sit outside and read for a while this afternoon.

We were out of milk and orange juice, so made a trip over to the nearby Safeway store and from there went to Costco for the big cartons of blueberries. Forry's been hungry for one of their Polish dogs, so that's what we had for supper. It's hard to beat the price -- $1.50 for the large hot dog and a soda!

Costco had some caramels -- "made in small batches with real butter and cream." I bought some and they are good, but they don't compare to the ones Sister Sherry makes. The last ones we got from her were sprinkled with sea salt -- so good! Sherry likes to make caramels, but hates to cut and wrap them, so unless Napua or I am there it just doesn't happen. :-(

We got another lovely care package yesterday. Sister Roxy sent a box STUFFED with various kinds of tea, both loose and bags. It's going to be a nice change from all of the coffee we've been drinking. We've been enjoying these Christmas surprises.
