Happy New Year! 2007

last night my hubby & i made cajun catfish for dinner and had a relaxing evening. he was asleep before 10pm & i stayed up watching tv. around 11pm, i had a 1/2 cup of coffee and a piece of coffee cake to help keep me awake. i was going to wake him at 11:57pm with glasses of champagne when at 11:55pm one of his friends text mailed him & woke him up before me! (ever seen those grizzly bears woken from hibernation on cable tv?!) we had our toast and kissed at midnight. he went back to sleep and at 12:12am i couldn't stay awake anymore and turned off the tv. at 12:50am our neice woke us both up by text mailing us, so we both turned our phones off and went to sleep!

it's been dark, pouring rain, foggy and hovering aroung 58 degrees all day. i made pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon & cinamon rolls for bfast, then we went for a long walk in the woods (there's my exercising goal for the day!) and then we went to the local american legion for about 2 hours or so and thanks to other people buying the bar a round, i got a bit tipsy! and here i am!

a happy, healthy and prosperous new year to all!!!

Welcome to my post! To visit other participants, please head over to the Practical Magic Blog Party 2010 blog. I must say that while I think Practical Magic the movie is adorable, I think the novel is incredible. And that is where I gleaned my inspiration from for these festivities. Gardens are mysterious, magical and enchanting, don't you think? Now follow me out into the garden, I have everything all ready for you, including music! (Turn your volume on). *Update: Music has reverted to my regular Fall soundtrack, 9/28/2010* For all of you non Practical Magic Blog Party folks, head on over to NJ Through My Eyes where I've posted 2 new slide-shows today; one is a preview of a new project I'm working on!

2009 Halloween Fete! (Saturday October 17, 2009) UPDATED! This shindig is still going strong!

Welcome! I'm so happy to have had so many visitors already! I must apologize for not being ready for you earlier! I also apologize for the wacky font sizes throughout my post. No matter how hard I try, I can't correct them. If music doesn't begin playing shortly after your arrival, scroll down until you see a purple music widget begin to load in the left hand column and wait until you hear the music before scrolling back up here. Happy Halloween Fete 2009! Love and Spookiness to All! ~Jo (Continue scrolling down until the end of the post) Outside, it's a gloomy & cold day here on the NJ coast. Many a restless Spirit wander here on days like this. One can never be too sure if the fog & mist are just as they seem. Inside, it is warm yet equally frightful! Creepy crawlies have gotten into the food & drink, I so hope you don't mind! What with all of the party hopping we're doing, I didn't want you to bust a gut, so I've laid out some Pumpkin Cook

(Though it didn't post at 12:01am like it was supposed to). Anyhoo, I'm home and resting (uncomfortably). Surgery went well, my kidney tube and stone are gone! I have an internal stent on the left hand side but I'm okay with that because it comes out in the doctor's office in 2-3 weeks (no back to the hospital) and especially because it meant they could take that nephrostomy tube out!
