    Saturday Meanderings

    ByMary Crozier May 10, 2024January 14, 2025

    What a glorious week, weather-wise. I hope those in other areas of the country experiencing extreme weather are safe. It’s the time of year the snowbirds return to their native habitat and the roads are less crowded and easier to navigate. The palo verde trees are blanketing the ground with their fragrant yellow blossoms. Hollyhocks…

Below is a stunning picture my neighbor shared of a rainbow after Wednesday’s storm. The mountains are getting lots of snow and with this colder weather, soups and stews are on the menu every…

    ByMary Crozier August 22, 2023August 23, 2023

    My husband, Scott announces he wants to make limoncello. Not sure where that ambitious notion comes from but I love this lemony liqueur so I am in full support.
