Looking Forward

Looking forward to the digging up my plants, Callie sniffs everything and has the nose of a blood hound.

I'm eyeing my back yard with the hopes of getting in some new plants here soon.

Oh, the wonderful thing about So. Cal. is you have greenery all year round.

Hope everyone enjoyed the rose bowl parade,

Cleaning Tip

With the kids going back in school, I've started the massive clean-up from the holidays.

One tip, I just recently started using on my stove top is oven cleaner. With a self-cleaning oven, I didn't think I'd ever use the can I bought for the grill.

Found out it's not supposes to be used for outdoor grills so while looking for another use for the spray, I started using it on the grills of my stove top. It gets off the stubborn black goo.


Have a great year

Frugal Ways to Celebrate the New Year

Here is a few suggestions:

- Go out to eat for lunch on 31st or the 1st.
- Stay up late watching old movies with friends or a love one.
- Buy your favorite bottle of wine and toss each other before going to bed.
- Play games with your kids, friends or love ones until midnight.
- have a fix and eat party - start the evening with everyone fixing their favorite treat and end the evening with everyone eating.

- want to be alone?
       - take a long hot bath with candles and scented bath soap.
       - reread one of your favorite books or maybe try a new one.
       - write - you don't have to be an author to want to capture what happened in the past year.
       - enjoy the quiet and stare at the beautiful sights right outside your window.

Whatever you decide to do - make it fun and something that you will remember after all this is the last day of year.

The New Year

Keeping an eye out for the new year.

2011 held a number of new challenges. With 2010 ending with the death of my father, I struggled at the beginning of the year to come to term with the lost of not only him, but adjusting to a new house, a new location and the lack of kids at home.

Both boys are now in college and loving it. With the boys gone, Mike and I have taken up the habit of playing golf more and taking long hikes. We have also discovered a few new places like the trip we took up to Big Bear and to some new wineries.

I'm looking forward to a new year and the fun of writing my new series.

Wishing you the best,

Tina
