Sub zero temps here today (Northern Michigan) with dusting of snow. Perfect weather to stay inside and read, nap, quilt and make soup ... all of which I'm doing ;-) Our NYE will be quiet ... my mom and sister will be over for an early dinner, a few hours of card games and everyone plans to be home and in bed long before the "ball drops". Sounds like a perfect evening to me. Went to a neighbor's place for a little Holiday celebration last night and she served a "Jalapeno Popper Dip" that was REALLY wonderful. Glad to share if you want it ... a little spicy but you can control that if you want. BTW ... loved Boyfriend's hat ... you have great taste in dressing him ;-) Linda45th Parallel Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09054316704528545846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8203707315474422023.post-33824005772037666102013-12-30T08:28:19.581-08:002013-12-30T08:28:19.581-08:00Everyone on the mend...except....my boyfriend has ...Everyone on the mend...except....my boyfriend has the flu now!<br />Hopefully short lived as we had our shots!<br />I love his hat, too!!♥Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06682800877894439940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8203707315474422023.post-39853140858046211512013-12-30T08:26:50.280-08:002013-12-30T08:26:50.280-08:00Thanks Furry...

I made a decision...I was either going to be a nag...wishing he wasn't watching it all the time, or pop some corn...jump up next to him and snuggle, and learn to love the game. Done that for 52 years now...so I guess it worked..HaHa.Wandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06941735389982354519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8203707315474422023.post-52997139112213708932013-12-29T21:22:23.446-08:002013-12-29T21:22:23.446-08:00Hello my friend!

I had meant to catch up at the cabin, but our wifi was misbehaving, and I could only go online for short while. I read your Christmas recap. So sorry to hear about so many of you feeling poorly. And your poor daughter, she must really have caught the worst of it. Your photos of the cottage never disappoint, but these, oh my, they are glorious. Isn't it interesting how the seasons change the landscape so much. How I love that! Oh, and Greg's hat...love it. My husband wears them all the time. I think they are both dapper looking fellows!!!<br />Hugs,<br />Kris<br />PS New Years is spent home, quietly. <br />Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15578853096888320012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8203707315474422023.post-35780104961800442912013-12-29T18:44:32.782-08:002013-12-29T18:44:32.782-08:00Interesting pictures of your cottage from some oth...Interesting pictures of your cottage from some other angles.

She is lucky to have you to take little V home for awhile. I'm pooped after a very busy week and Christmas celebrations. I'm putting the house back to order but keeping the tree up 'til after New Years. Tradition here. I got two gorgeous bird feeders from Santa and hung them today as it is going to get colder this week. Right now the weather is mild for this time of year. Then I will sample one of my new teas in a new tea-cup. :) Wishing you a very Happy New Year, Linda. I look forward to many more of your interesting and photo-filled posts in the new year.
