The Parish… Shrimp & Grits with Greens… Hush puppies… Corn Bread… Chalkboard Sauvignon Blanc… Mom’s Home

 Vaccinated supper tonite…  Live from NYC…

We’re baaaaack!!  Took a week to shoot over to Tucson, Arizona…  time to put Mom’s house on the market…  so many mixed feelings…  35 years in this home in the Catalina foothills…  stunning views…  enchanting wildlife…  delightful neighbors…  recalling all the memories made over the years…  we thought we might retire to this home one day…  but life happens…  Mom is now nearby in NYC…  we have a new granddaughter on the way arriving in April 2022…  and so moving away is no longer on the map…  unexpectedly difficult to let go of the dream of living in this place of 300 days of sunshine and warmth…


Visited several of our favorite spots… 

Seis… authentic Mexican food from the six regions of Mexico…  intensely flavorful meals with enough of a portion for two meals…

The Parish…  Cajun and creole cuisine…  pictured…  shrimp and grits with greens…  hush puppies…  cornbread with cinnamon butter…

A brand new Sauvignon Blanc… Chalkboard… crisp… with a teeny tingle on the tongue from a minuscule amount of effervescence… delicious 🥂


An emotional rollercoaster…  busy packing up items being moved to Estes Park in Colorado one moment…  sitting on the floor sorting slides tears streaming down the next…  trying to grasp all the feelings running through our heads…


Tucson’s fabulous restaurants giving us something to look forward to at the end of each day…  


In between the pandemic once again raging in America… delta and omicron spreading rapidly  #GetYourJabOn   vaccinated?  Terrific… get boosted💉

Not vaxxed yet?  Get busy… this winter will be a tough road ahead 😷💕

How was your day?   What’s on your plate?   Thoughts?
