Santa Sez

Linzi is getting trees this year,

Today I dropped into Lowes and they had all of their bare root (As usual bagged and tagged) trees ready to go. So on the list were 1)a fig tree (black) 2)a Persimon Fuyio 3) An apricot (Blenheim). All are in full size except for the apricot.. which is semi. So Its a good start. I am hopeful about going up to Sacramento on Monday afternoon and planting them. Linzi said that she would start digging the holes today!

This afternoon we took a jaunt up to Modesto. Sue loves the thrift store up there. We did thrift store and Trader Joes. We topped it off with dinner at Olive Garden. Sue love the way the do Talipia there. I had what Sean would mostly order, tortellini. It has some braised beef and some mushrooms thrown in. I am crazy about their zuppa Toscano. That sausage potato soup is hard to beat. Sue likes the salad. She even order a glass of wine tonight. She said that she is starting to like the red wines... Just a sip or two. I had a sip or two (I was the driver) and she enjoyed the libation.. about 5 sips. It was very busy,but we only had to wait 30 minutes. Service was good... 33 dollars for two. hard to beat.

I hope you had a great Saturday.
