Grandmother's Keeping Room

***
***************************************************************************************
With a very light dusting outside,a beautiful full golden moon and freezing temperatures tonight....And many trips out with Presley (our dog) to do his business... Leaves me thinking...Winter, a lingering season, is a time to gather golden moments, embark upon a sentimental journey, and enjoy every idle hour...Right now I have a desire to do just that...
Lets start with a sentimental journey... our trip to Stream Cliff... Laughter, conversation on the ride to and from was sheer merriment...along with the singing "Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas".

Golden moments....the meal was delicious. Green salad with a homemade mayonnaise, lemon, sugar, dill dressing...Pork loin drizzled in a sweet sauce, creamy mash potatoes, carrots with just the right amount of sweetness, and green beans....A bread pudding that took one back to Grandma's kitchen.
Walking in the snow carefully.. :0).. touring the Ol' Farm House...
The excitement of finding "Free" wall paper books along the road...the wondering about how long those had been there before we snatched them up...discussions of what we will do with all the beautiful paper....
Hope you take time this winter to gather your golden moments, go on a sentimental journey and enjoy every idle hour ....The Ol' Blogger
