Dennis and I had an early Christmas road date. We had a few items to pick up in Mankato.
Last several years we have realized how much the birds appreciated our heated water dish outside of the garage porch. We picked up a second dish. One will be used in the porch for the garage kitties and cats. I know the water dish sitting on the concrete floor next to the outside wall makes for really cold water on the tummies of the feline.
We decided to have lunch at Old Country Buffet. Dennis and I each enjoy different foods and where else can I find Brussels Sprouts and Okra along with all the fresh fruit, plus a sliver of pecan pie to top it all off? We had a heartfelt conversation over coffee. Sometimes reviewing things from the past can make what we have in the world of today more meaningful.
We drove home with a dusting of snow, and while the sun was shining through the flakes, it was very magical.
