Comice came in!

I wait all year for the return of the Comice pears. They back now - and ( bonus) at the La Cienaga Farmers Market! That's just a couple of blocks from home.

Thanks!

Classic round-the-table holiday pose.

After Thanksgiving Family Luncheon with Cashio Street, 64th Street, and Newbury Park Schippers and Bakers.

Just desserts

Forgot to photo my Thanksgiving dinner plate, so here is a photo of just desserts. Sweet potato pie and cheesecake with a little cranberry drizzle with a cup of hot lemon balm tea.  

It was all so good!

Madrona Marsh

Visited Madrona Marsh on Wednesday (between storms). The still-dry vernal pools seem to be holding out for Spring, but several low-lying patches of trail were full of reflections and even waterfowl. 

Winter?

A big storm has been in the forecast but temps have been in the 70s. I've still been hiking in shirt sleeves!

Well, last night, the rain did indeed start, with promises to continue through the weekend. I guess winter in coming after all. I put on my wool leggings and a brand new sweatshirt (so soft!). It says "tell your dog I said hi".

I think I'm going to live in this ensemble until spring.

Photo fun on Cashio Street

I was admiring the view through the bottom of my drinking glass this morning.

Still Halloween

This guy is hanging on for what? Christmas?
