So maybe I'll put a bag apart for the Red Cross or something.<br />I love soups!

I always think they add a little protein - as of course does fabulous cheese. Remember I'm a 'cheese-aholic". Last evening here in California where we're visiting we had a delicious salad - arugula greens with tiny tomatoes and fresh burrata cheese with basil pesto - before a fresh spinach crisp thin crust pizza, delicious!<br /><br />Enjoy changing your wardrobe for the season - I did that when I got back from Africa - and now here in Calif. it's warm so I may have brought too many heavy sweaters with me! May have to go shopping, haha!<br />Meanwhile back home they tell me our electricity is still out from the hurricane but the rains have gone and things should dry out this coming week. Never a dull moment.<br /><br />Have a good week dear - enjoy each precious day.<br />Hugs - MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915239653283205065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-21306872193957941562016-10-09T13:56:16.660+02:002016-10-09T13:56:16.660+02:00Love the new cushions.
