A very happy Valentine's Day to everyone! And a very happy 40th (!) wedding anniversary today to me and my most beloved B.... 

Also? Tallulah Mae!

 

Happy Halloween 2024

 

A fun throwback to Miss Tallulah Mae, dressed up as a little devil (she was really a little angel!). 

Happy Halloween!

Happy Merry 2023

 

Tallulah Mae loved Christmas, so let's revisit some of her visits with Santa Claus. (Actually, I don't think she did love Christmas, but she was so so adorable!)

Hi, Santa!

 

Santa on the roof of the neighborhood dive bar/karaoke joint...

Tallulah Mae Plus a Turkey = Happy Thanksgiving 2023

 

Flashback! Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate the day.

Boo!

 

Hope everyone had a spooky Halloween!

Happy Fourth!

 

Tallulah Mae and Uncle Sam.

Obeying the Ice Cream Law

 

...with ice cream from a new place, Handel's (from Ohio, apparently, since 1945). Really yummy! (This is coffee chocolate chip and praline pecan--alas, no chocolate chip, my fave...)

Rule Followers

 

Monday was a national holiday, so of course we had to have ice cream (it's the law...well, our law, anyway). This was delicious spumoni gelato (gelato DOES count as ice cream!).

Christmas View

 

On Christmas Day we went to have lunch...right on the beach (well, the restaurant is right on the beach, we weren't ON the beach). A gorgeous view...

Different Light Show, Same Day

 

Last night we went with friends to Lightscape (holiday lights) at the San Diego Botanic Garden. It was pretty cool!

Merry Christmas 2022

 

Tallulah and Santa, sitting in a... chair. Merry merry, y'all!

Happy Christmas Eve Eve!

This year's photo of Santa on a tractor, right down the street from us. I just love how this man continues to amuse the neighborhood on every holiday with someone/something sitting on the tractor. 

Please enjoy Tallulah Mae visiting Santa in 2008. 

 

Turkey Day

 

Tallulah talkin' turkey...

Jacks

 

Just a line-up before these all go away for the year. the paler guy in the middle is new this year.

Happy Halloween 2022!

 

Time for our annual Halloween throwback featuring Miss Tallulah Mae...

Here she is studiously avoiding the scary Halloween clown. We miss her so much!

Ice Cream Law, Obeyed

 

Hope you had your ice cream today! It's the law.*

*Schottlaender law: on a federal holiday, you must eat ice cream.

Bonne Fête Nationale!

 

(Happy Bastille Day!)

Happy Fourth 2022
