Now that I have more time to spare, I've been using it to register for prizes on the internet. I really think that I will win the Home & Garden 2 million dollar house, plus furniture, plus car, plus $500,000. I have to wait until March 15 to have H&G verify that I am the new owner then I'm packing up to go to New Mexico. Love the southwest in the spring! You all can come visit. There is a guest house.

The joy of Valentine's Day!
The love of candy will see us thru.....
or maybe just "I'm thinking of you" phone call will do.
Nothing warms us up more than a grandchild's hug,
It is the main thing that keeps us from being a slug!

New Book by Kingslover

Oh how I love Barbara Kingslover! I'm enjoying her new book, Lacuna. She prods you to think about history and the American political interference of foreign governments in a different way. I loved the revelation of the lives of the Mexican artists Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera and how they influence the fictional character in this novel. He attention to details is phenomenal.
She did this in The Poisonwood Bible which was her first novel that brought her to our attention.

I'm feeling so cultured---We went to the "World of the PHARAOHS" exhibit this week. It was overwhelming with the volume of pieces and information. Glad we went!
