It's usually too icy to stop and too cold to get out of the car lately.
But our mornings can be so beautiful and pink and interesting.

This morning as I waited for the Target/Starbucks to open I took a little detour.
Down an un-named road that heads to the new Aldi's and Taco Bell I went.

The smoke from the chimneys is especially noticeable and pretty when it is -9 degrees.

I tried my best with my cell phone.

Peaceful, no?

Yesterday I was lucky enough to go out to lunch with some friends.
We went out for Thai. Nancy brought her girls, this unnamed woman brought her adorable unnamed child,
and I brought my camera.

Our visit was way too short but it was really fun!



This little guy was rambunctious and a little shy but I tried my hardest to make friends with him.
He gave me this smile just as they were leaving.

It made my day!

I think I would like to go out to lunch every week. Don't you think that sounds like a nice plan?

I can be the lady who lunches.

It's my calling, I think.

Any takers?




Encourage one another,
Donna
