……………………………….Cathy and her sister Connie drove up from PA to pay me a visit just before Christmas……We had a COOKIE EXCHANGE! I gave them cookies I had baked [in the snowmen cookie containers], and I received so many cookies of different types it was overwhelming……..I’m just one “small” person!….LOL……We spent some time in the family room having a snack, and after some conversation and some laughs…off we went to Greenwich CT. for lunch at a lovely little French restaurant named Versailles. Cathy and I both ordered the French onion soup followed by Quiche. With all of this we had a bottle of delicious Sancerre white wine.   After a leisurely lunch we took a stroll up and down Greenwich Ave looking at all the shop windows and the people. Most wore masks, even on the street, but every store required them. There were many people scurrying to buy Christmas gifts. Connie took a picture of Cathy and I in front of a huge manger set up in front of a church. As we were having our picture taken a young couple walked by, and we could hear her say, “oh look someone has taken the statue of baby Jesus!”. Cathy, Connie and I had a good chuckle. We guessed she didn’t know the statue wasn’t put into the manger until Christmas morning!……Then we made it back to my house, and sat by the fire and had desert, and some Stolen……We had a lovely visit…..I’m slowly making my way through the cookies. I’m not going anywhere near a scale for quite a while!!!
