         These strawberries are beautiful. It is really a shame that I don’t eat them, but oh well…..I don’t. These would be great on a breakfast buffet. She decorates with both white and semisweet chocolate which makes for a better looking finished product.  When was the last time you decorated strawberries??

Trivial Triffles

         This morning I was watching a CNN clip of an interview with Robert Redford about the changes over time in The Sundance Film Festival. He was talking about an upcoming movie he was in that is entered in the festival. He recounted how he wished he and Paul Newman had made the film together because of the chemistry they shared in life that came out in the movies Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and The Sting. It is such a shame that they didn’t make a third movie together. Paul Newman died in 2008 of cancer. I loved these two movies.

           

Memory Musings

         One of my early jobs after returning from Florida was working at Rich Port Realty. I obtained a secretarial position that was really fun. I worked with Realtors Sue Sisco, Cindy Pearson, Kathy Wilson, Norma Metcalf, Margaret Minalga, Dick and Shirley Newman, Sandi Wilcox, and Lee Scheidenhelm. I loved these people who always treated me with respect and shared a friendship. I hope I didn’t forget anyone. I have extremely fond memories of Rich Port and these wonderful people who influenced my life in a positive manner.
