Final Post, At Least For A While

I haven't written anything in several weeks.  Life has become busier than I want, and it has left little time for blogging, which I love.  I have been blogging on a regular basis for over 11 years, and it may be ending.  At least for now, I have no time to plan, research and write.  Here's what's happening.

My mom is turning 100 in a few months.  We are planning a big family getaway to celebrate the event, but are having a hard time putting it together, with several teenagers, and some younger children too, who all have busy schedules.  Planning is taking up a lot of my time.

My twin grandsons who live in L.A. are having their bar mitzvah in June.  I will am so excited about the event, and will be with lots of family for a long weekend.

I just got back from two fabulous trips.  One was an Oceania 12 cruise in the Carribbean with my mom.  The other was an 8 day trip to San Miguel de Allende and Guanajuanto, in Mexico, with friends Meena, Ginger and Kevin.  Both were trips to remember, but now I am home for a while.

I'm home helping my mom, who has decided it is time to sell her house in Los Angeles, and move to Ocean Hills Country Club.  We are both so excited, but there is much work to be done.  She has lived in her house for 70 years, so there's a lot of stuff to go through.  She will buy a smaller house in this community.  Here's hoping it all goes well.

So, you can see I'm pretty busy.  To top it off, I will soon have carpel tunnel surgery to eliminate the numbness in my hand, the result of my broken wrist last year.  Also, I have a consulation with the cataract doctor in two weeks, and I will most likely have cataract surgery soon.  My vision has become very blury lately, and I think it's time.

So, no time to blog.  Perhaps I will be back at it in July.  We'll see.  Until then, it's been so much fun sharing recipes, restaurants, travel and information with all of you over the years.  Stay curious.  I will too, and I will hope to revive this blog in July.  Susie
