On the occasion of seeing an old year out and a New Year in, what do I bring you but a half-eaten loaf of bread.
This, however, may be the first day of the year in which I only took six photos of two subjects!
I had an MRI this morning (bum knees...would like to know why...) ... interesting photo op, but it didn't seem like a good idea...
We went to a very cool store with lots of fun items and I bought a huge red "temple" bell with white snowflakes and a Christmas tree painted on it...very Scandinavian looking. The man who checked us out remembered us from yesterday and said, "You're back for *more*?" "Well, Yes Sir, I am..." I *Need* this bell for a gift to my friend in Nova Scotia...and while I'm here, I'll get some plates with snowflakes on them because they're half off on sale and they look more *wintry* than *Christmasy*... And I'll take the owl salt and pepper in red and green because they're really inexpensive now and they'll *blend in* when I decorate the table next year... I decided to forego the St Frances statue as the price was still too high, even with a small discount...and it would have been yet another impulse buy...
On a roll now, we headed to the grocery where they still had an aisle overflowing with Christmas sale merchandise. (You'll never find me out on the 26th fighting for a roll of discounted wrapping paper!) Yesterday I'd bought two candles on sale. I tested them last night and they made the room smell wonderful so I headed back to clear the shelf...
And so we come to my photo... We were clearly getting hungry as the day had worn on, so I picked out three loaves of bread, all taste tempting! I selected this one to have cut, deciding it would taste good on the drive home (a lengthy 3 miles away...but you know how long that feels like when you're hungry...or need to pee...)
So...a slice for you, and a slice for me...(the larger pieces out of the middle of the loaf, of course...) And two more... Yummo...hits the spot...and a couple more...
We arrive home and here's what's left... I look it over and decide it's photo worthy of a journaled moment...and I read the packaging...
"Baked to be savored... Made to be shared..."
Wouldn't they be pleased that we paid such rapt attention and did as they suggested...
(Little wonder that Weight Watcher classes are full to over-flowing after the first of the year...)
And another P.S. ... I don't think that bell is going to make it to Nova Scotia... I already hung it in my yard...
And if you'd care to see that aforementioned bell:

good luck with the MRI
I hope the MRI shows something that can be fixed easily....we have a lot of hopping to do over hills and meadows chasing that perfect light!
