Hello from Home

Not much to report. Nothing and everything. Too tired to write. Arms and back hurt a little from lifting and moving things from the condo. We have so much to unpack and do! Truly daunting.

Sweet notes--little girls next-door [one on each side] drew us a little welcome-home book. And little girl up the block tied a Welcome Home balloon to our flower box. So lovely.

Did see the movie Morning Glory with Figgy yesterday, and got two great new cookbooks this week @ Williams-Sonoma in Montclair, one about Christmas cookies for $19.95, one called Thanksgiving, $9.95. Purchased in anticipation of shelving my books in new surroundings--and trying new cookie, pie and tart recipes.

Let's face it, got them for escape reading, recipe musing and photo viewing, to distract me from my broken nails, unwashed hair, trash-can hauling, life in boxes. To imagine a pretty set table with crystal, china and freshly prepared food.

Good luck with that.
