Happy New Year, Corey. Thanks for posting your mom's cream puff recipe again. I remember reading it once and then kicking myself for not saving it because I'd really like to give it a try. Maybe that will be my resolution: make those cream puffs.

So true, you being in California and all. Beautiful sunset, as I watched the sun head past Arizona to California to set.
Happy New Year Corey!! Here is to another great year of brocantes and treasure hunting!

Dear Corey,
As I shoveled my driveway from the foot of snow that has fallen since 9AM, the mailman told me he had a package for me. Not thinking much of it I told him to leave it at the front door. He was kind enough to place it between the snowstorm and main doors. I was shocked it was from you...and simultaneously not surprised (does it make any sense?)...I knew immediately what was inside...your gesture took my breath away...you are one of a kind. I will treasure your act of kindness forever...you are the beam of light that gives people like me hope and assurance that the world is good....merci, merci, merci.. bisous.
