Fall - where'd it go?



The leaves were just starting to change. Now they're long gone. Bare trees and freezing rain. Gray skies and darkness before 5pm. Ugh. Well, it's not feet of snow and downed power lines.

Thanksgiving was great. B made it down so we had the family foursome. Excellent batch of Yorkshire produced in the Devereaux kitchen. Two pies. NY blueberries in one. Killer crust. Really, not just sayin' that. Too late to kiss up for gift purposes anyway, eh?


All went out and watched Milk on Fri. after. Penn is great, better than his Spiccoli and Dead Man. Sold out theatre. Thanks to the other 3 for not body-checking me with cold shoulders when I arrived only 15mins before the movie. We only managed to get tickets thanks to their super early arrival. The whole world was out and about with the same idea. I brought snack offerings for all. Next time maybe I'll shock everyone and prepurchase tix online.

The chef has confirmed he qualified for the 2009 Summer Senior Games in the 10K road race to be held in San Fran in August. An unexpected and well earned achievement coming at the end of a long battle with the injury bug.
The 10K is the longest event in the games. No half or full mary. Quite a menu of other sports.


Hope all the snow-bound folks are staying warm and comfy as the devereaux cats.
