Most people would call this a "Christmas Cactus" but I call mine a "Thanksgiving Cactus."

They were parked in the Kowalskis grocery store parking lot. Probably getting donuts?

Many Americans enjoy watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade live from New York City!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Taste of Brazil

 

On Saturday, Valdir cooked "feijoada," the national, traditional meal of Brazil. Maria Bethânia's music sang in the background as we toasted with wine and caipirinhas and finished with a Brazilian dessert called "Pudim." Saúde!

The tablecloth was made with fabric purchased in São Paulo in 2019.  

It's beginning.....

 ..... to look a lot like Christmas at Kowalskis grocery store! 

No more pizza

 

Green Mill seems to be out of business off Rahn Road.  Maybe a victim of the Covid pandemic?? 

Rain before winter

 

Thursday was a rainy day in Eagan. But in the coming days, the snow will come.... 

Honoring Veterans

 On Wednesday, the Eagan Rotary Club and the Eagan Kickstart Rotary Club honored three Veterans. 

Annie Young served in the Air Force, Don Coffin (seated) and Mike Ferber both served in the Navy. 

They posed by the American Flag painting by Annie. 

Thank a Veteran for their service to our country.
