Hi guys
Went to my nephews wedding in nj last night!!
We had a great time!
Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.

Happy Birthday, Warren!!
I'm sure you're aging like fine wine..
I ate more than I should have, but I didn't drink. I never drank really in my life.. I like a pina colada once in a while at a party, but that's my speed.
Water with lemon is my choice of drink with most meals & when I'm out,.
Hope u had a great birthday (100 more)
& a great weekend.
Watching American Music Awards &than off to sleep. (If I even stay awake until 11)..

Hi Warren
I'm on the waiting list at the library for Murder House & Cross Justice.
I love all his books. I read just about all the "Private" books too..
He's some writer.,
Enjoy your book & your night..

Now that Thanksgiving is over, I will tell you about the things I miss from my Childhood in the Slope.   The aroma of Turkeys baking at Levines bakery on 5th ave between 12th & 13th streets. People sometimes did not have an oven big enough for the Turkey they bought, so they brought it to Levines and they cooked it for them! A bunch of us kids would dress up like ragamuffins and sing in apartment house courtyards, or at houses on the block where they knew us. We then would yell "ANYTHING FOR THANKSGIVING". The folks would give us fruit and pennies or a nickel. We did not trick or treat on Halloween. The relatives and friends we had for dinner. For some of them, it was the only time we saw them. The extension from the kitchen table into the living room so that there was enough room for all to sit and eat. A little crowded but who cared. Apple cider from a gallon Jug that my father poured over his shoulder. The love every one showed to each other without embarassment . That was my block on Thanksgiving when I was a kid.

Wow the signs of Christmas are all around us. I wont start decorating until after our Housekeeping Maid finishes cleaning up tomorrow. I have our Christmas cards written out and ready to mail. The stores have had Christmas trees etc; out since before Halloween. Gets earlier every year! In my new role as keeper of the "Employees Appreciation Fund" I may help giving out the Christmas bonuses to our hourly paid employees at a party next week. I look forward to doing so but I do not want to infringe on the outgoing manager of the funds until he actually turns it over to me. He takes a great deal of pride in handling the fund .Patsy, be careful decorating, especially if there is a ladder involved.  Sorry Jet fans, but I will be rooting very hard for the Giants on Sunday!!!!

"Happy Chanukah" to our friends &
Family..
