O Christmas Plants
How to solve the fresh/fake debate. Throw up lights on all the umbrella trees.
Add ornaments lovingly.
Turn off overhead lights. Sit. Love.

Great, just great
I mean that for real. Because despite 60+ sunny temps all week, today it is snowing like a banshee.
My garden pots are coated with snow.
Not a dainty snowfall, either. It’s a proper storm.
What a day to cut and baste?!
Charming sometimes, charminger now
My sister makes everything more charming. Like Chicago in March.
It’s a rare visit when she comes on her own and I’m home alone and we have only to entertain each other. And we only did things we like.

Unseen: Thrifting. Neo-Futurist theater. Fingernail painting. Taco making. Various lounging. Lady movie watching. Wine sipping.
Winter gardening
Little tiny bit of growing on the homefront, despite a recent evening snowfall.
First, Frosty the fuzzy echeveria has decided to procreate.
There are two teeny fuzzies popping up from the stem.
Then, on the gangly cane plant I rescued from they alley a few summers ago, there are spouts on the two stalks I lopped off in the fall.
Tons of sprouts. Three on one, four on the other.
Come spring, I’m going to lop the other two. Their tops are so raggedy.
I love mummers
Who doesn’t, really? Fought off terrible cold to sit in the middle of Broad Street (at Washington) for a prime seat to the 2010 Mummers Parade.
On the way via Carpenter Street, we found much evidence of a last-minute slipper-goldening.
Classic string band costumes:
And less classic but equally fun:
