Stella's Place 
Such a pretty picture Stella!
So Hi Everyone! 🙂
I’m up late again, so it’s a very early ‘Good Morning’ rather than me usually being late.
With all this talk of cooler weather arriving (finally! 🙂 ) I thought it’s getting to be hot chocolate time:
so of course we need a chocolate set big enough for everybody
and something to put on that platter to go with the hot chocolate – a brown sugar, bacon, chocolate cake. It has no calories, and won’t give you a sugar high, so go ahead and enjoy it for breakfast 😉
then I was looking for flowers for the table, and found this beautiful vase – no more flowers needed!
So have a great day everyone! See you all later 😉

Afternoon,
They are lovely. I’ve never seen a vase like that, & it comes in different colors! A few tears ago DH bought me a clear glass vase with frosted glass roses formed into the glass like that, but the roses formed the base of the vase. It was so pretty I have it out all the time whether I have flowers* in it or not.
* only fake flowers for me so no nice fragrance 😦 but they are a lot easier to keep, and don’t decay or die!

When we lived at the cabin I had that exact chocolate set, but not all those pieces. I loved it for a long time, it an many other pieces of pretty glass and China things. And now I’m happy to have let them be memories, and changed my life in new ways.
Good morning, and thanks for fond memories.

Morning Stella. Can’t remember if I mentioned this. I’ve been watching a few of Roots and Refuge’s videos lately. Just saw they’d moved to South Carolina. I’m so happy that all their work is paying off for them.

Okay, I guess the only piece I didn’t have was the big platter, and I had a sugar and creamer too. I guess they made those in case you served coffee or tea in it.

Nice! I had not seen the sugar & creamer. Having such a complete set is rare.

That’s so nice! Sometimes it really does seem like food & drink tastes better out of nice porcelain 😉 Like you, I now no longer want that much “stuff” It takes time to take care of, and time is getting short for me. I also used to have antique teacups, and glass. I’m fascinated by art glass, and hand painted porcelain. Now I just prefer looking at them rather than dusting them. Some day I’ll take the time to print out some images of art glass. I have photos of art glass & china I sold at auction. FYI, NEVER sell at auction!
I hope you had much enjoyment using that lovely set with family & friends.

There is an excellent series of articles on GraniteGrok that I think readers would be interested in. There is so much good stuff in them, I don’t know the best way to get the concepts across & I don’t want to fill up the page with the whole article. What is your advice?
The links are
https://granitegrok.com/blog/2021/10/thru-the-eyes-of-a-refugee-from-california-biden-is-destroying-nh-like-pelosi-destroyed-ca-and-i-go-no-place-else-to-run and https://granitegrok.com/mg_nashua/2021/10/thru-the-eyes-of-a-refuge-from-california-the-subjugation-of-america-thru-the-law-of-contract
They are about how the biden administration is circumventing the Constitution by using contract law to achieve what would otherwise be illegal, such as but not limited to, forcing vaccines on people.
If you want to review them, there are 2 as of this morning with one more about hospitals to come.

I think that people who read and like the content at GraniteGrok will continue to read their content. Simply providing a link, and perhaps a couple of sentences, is sufficient, I think.

I guess the question did that!
I think of people popping back & forth between here & the Treehouse, but since none of the regulars here except me are from NH, I forget they still could be regular readers of the Grok for the national news & commentary.
Thanks!

Oh my, 88*, even with the nice people down south, the weather would kill me!
Believe it or not, I’ve developed another health problem, so I’ve been a vegetable the past few days, and was up sick last night. Now I have to start on a super strict, very limited diet for 1 month so I probably will be posting lots of food pics ’cause that’s the only way I’ll be getting that yummy goodness!
Take care of yourself Have a cool, long drink! 😉

Mornin’ everyone. I got up this morning thinking it was Saturday. Not that it really matters. The sun is out as usual. The temp is slowly climbing back ups little each day but is still in the high 60’s in the early morning……..in the shade. Have a nice day, all.

I am absolutely convinced that Fauci had Covid released. I think he has been instrumental in conceiving this disastrous mess, creating Covid, and driving the fear. We all know he has lied about everything.

Isn’t that just terrible what Baldwin did? Grammar school age children know better gun safety! I can’t see one reason for that happening but negligence, drugs, or purposely on his part.

We don’t yet know what happened. I don’t like Baldwin either, but I’d like to know the circumstances before I pass judgement.

True, maybe it was a problem with the prop itself???
Can blanks kill people who are not right close to you?
I remember years ago a young actor woke up from a nap on set & goofing around put the prop gun with blanks up to his head & shot/killed himself. Very sad. I wonder how close these people were to Baldwin.
