MY FRIENDS NEW CRAFT - WHIMSICAL!

These whimsical suncatcher flowers are made by my friend Melanie. She has used various sizes, colors, and textures of antique glassware together to make fun sun catching flowers.














Let me say how they just look beautiful and fun in my front planters. Each design is unique!
If you're interested in purchasing - she will be displaying her craft at the Smoki Museum craft show this coming weekend, November 12-14.

OH FALL!

This was the most amazing fall season I have seen in Prescott in decades! It was so amazingly beautiful in the morning sunshine. It even appeared that the houses were painted over with gold overtones. This is a picture from our back porch. This was such an infusion of gold - it was breathtaking. OH FALL!!!!














Our walk to breakfast early Saturday morning gave us the opportunity to walk under the canopy of gold! I can't remember when I've seen Prescott so beautiful with fall color.















The picture on the left is taken walking north along Mt. Vernon, the picture on the right is walking south along the same walkway. That one tree with all of the yellow on the trunk was quite the scene stealer for the weekend. So many tourist and Prescott residents stopped to take photos of that one tree. The tree is in front of our neighbors home.














The houses seems to be painted with gold overtones.







In our backyard, under the pergola, you feel as if you are sheltered with a sea of gold. It was wonderful to see the Fall colors!

SUSHI EXPERIENCE

I know it will be too hard to believe that today I had my first taste of sushi - and it was awesome. I went to lunch with my friend Woojin and she was kind enough to introduce me to sushi - Arizona Roll, Catapillar Roll, and California Roll. I must say the adventure was wonderful and the company was the best.








The Arizona Roll was my favorite as it was spicy and had much flavor. The crab and avocado mix is delightful.

So there you have it just newly 61 and my first taste of sushi. Guess I'm not going to be a registered foodie anytime soon. Enjoy!
