~November Snowpeople~Happy Thanksgiving to my American friends♥

 

A very fuzzy Ipad pic of a kitchen window..100 yrs ago I made these stars my daughter taught me to do for  our office window..it looked so pretty..you need 6 sheets of white paper..scissors..scoth tape and a staple and this video..

Mitten garland from a few years back..snowmen..and lights..some precious Sarah gifts and it's a fave sight.

I love making these snowpeople..I told you about them last year and this year they are multiplying.

Our tree is up..all outdoor lights done.

A little early but glad we did.

Fairy lights are soothing medicine at night.

And I still have visions of my mom staring at ours in the dark w/ the light of her cigarette being the only other light.

Please picture the classiest woman you ever did see..she would be over 100..yrs ago..it was chic.

I started watching  The Crown Season 4..I may backtrack..

J is not into it at all..

He knows everything..

All their names since season 1..but has never wanted to watch it.

Canadians seem to want less and less of the monarchy.QC in particular.

Watching the first 3 episodes made me cringe for Diana.

I truly had no idea Charles was that sad at the prospect of marrying her.

And if the Royal Family was that mean to Diana..well..

Margaret..what a pill.Have you noticed the similarity to Reese Witherspoon? Certain angles..

That poor girl...Diana..

She plays the role very very well.

They all do..

G.Anderson although her voice is a tad too tremulous( I should talk..)  does a great job.She's such a cold actress..Perfect role.

And The Royals were mean to her also.

That's bullying..sorry but it's a form of..  ridicule is never right.

I wonder how the boys feel if they are watching.

Not impressed am I.

But I am enjoying it.And yes I realize it's a show..and a lot of it may be fabricated..

Above is one of my fave special soups .I have been making it since 2005.

You can find the recipe here.

And you can play w/ it.I chose not to add the coconut milk and peanut butter... today.I used 2 % milk and maple syrup instead of brown sugar.

Delicious as always.

The words..the felts..the glass..etc..when you are old..you are old:)

There's no theme..just life.And I think of each one and it's origin when it goes up..

And while decorating it..not only do I think of the ornaments and their provenance..but I think of people I know that have much more than Covid going on.

♥

We are also watching The Undoing.

It has good reviews..I almost can't stand it.

First of all..Nicole Kidman...her face? What's up with it?

I can't bear to look and neither can Jacques.

Why can't women age gracefully and not look like their face is tied at the back w/ many clips?

IMHO.

Just passing the days here...No more gardening..so far less exercise..not a good thing at all.

I hope you are yours are well..  vaccines are around the corner..

Stay safe.Many of you will have before us..It was a surprise to me to learn that we are in line.

We had quite a bit of snow yesterday..enough for the plow to come and for Jacques to have work to do..

I LOVE where I live.

Below aerial views that were on social media..not my photos.A drone took them..imagine that.Did I mention I love it here?

He never complains ..it's exercise for him.

He is a fitness virtuoso.

From London to Paris:)

Stay Safe.
