We had a great turn out for Fall Foliage on Saturday, considering this is the Pandemic Year of 2020. The temporary exhibit, Creepy Things from the Collection, was a hit with almost everyone. One little girl cried from being scared of our candy dish and broke my heart. But everyone else enjoyed it.

What's Cookin' in Canadian: Picadillo
Have a pound of ground meat and want a quick and deliciously different dish to serve your family? Tina shared this recipe with me, and I love that it is not your typical hamburger stir-fry. Raisins, black beans, olives, allspice, and cumin give this dish a distinctive flair. Enjoy!
Rotary Report: Mad Hatters

I am so excited that we are in the last quarter of the nightmare year of 2020. However, and much more importantly, I am tremendously excited about this year’s annual quilt show. Only a pandemic could force us to change our yearly show, but in this case, it has been a good thing.

Today, I will get Blue again. Blue is the anxious Italian mastiff that I dog-sit on Wednesdays while his owner, Bill, works in the office.
