The fellow at the store where I bought the pizza was upset when I said we were
having this treat because we were countering depression. He said, "Oh no this is
celebration food," as he put it in the oven. "I know," I said, "but we’re going into

As it is it will be an evening of pure pleasure, and I wish you the same.

Eating outside in winter! How wonderfully romantic. ❤️ Nice way to get away without going far 😄😷🤗♥️❣️
Hi Evelyn,
I don't know how romantic it is, it was cold. We were simply trying to get one last almost reasonable meal in before the snow -- which has hit today -- big time.
If it's possible during lockdown we will go to our favourite park and walk, and feed the swans and geese. That's been our escape the whole time. Otherwise seeing your art always makes me happy.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO Barbara
