A Monday for me..... and no coffee!!!! Can you even imagine? While my head cold is pass already, I always play it safe and avoid any dairy in my diet for two weeks after so as not to hold over any remnants of germs. Dairy is one of the worst things to enjoy doing colds and flus and since I use Italian sweet cream in coffee, I have been enjoying lemon and ginger tea with added honey, which I must admit, I'm enjoying. This weekend was spent mostly indoors as we had snow and sleet on Saturday, followed by cold and heavy rains yesterday, with very strong gales. Even the birds can barely hold on to the feeders. So...I made some dinner for the week, meatloaf, a casserole dish of 6 layer lasagna, and four nice sized stuffed peppers, and two loaves of oat bread. This house smelt lovely. And I finally heard from Cali Boi. He is fine and while his home with his hubby is alright, they did have to leave since the fire came within feet of the house, but his hubby did lose his place they kept in the terrible fires of California, Meanwhile I avoided news for the most part....too hard to see the country being taken apart, and we're still only in the beginning stages. This year seems to stink already.

END OF AN ERA
A trip to any city, even Philadelphia would not be complete without a visit to a wonderful shopping emporium, especially one of the past. For years since 1876 that would have been John Wanamaker's in Philly. John Wanamaker had been there since it's inception right up to 1998 when it was taken over first by Woodward & Lothrop, followed by Hechts, Lord and Taylor and then bought out by Macys. But the end of an era is now reality for the grande dame as Macy's announced in it's store closings, this flagship is going to be shuttered. Wannamaker's had been open since 1861 in it's original location, before moving to the Market Street location in 1876, so this will mark the first time this cavernous, granite palace, that occupies a whole city block, will have it's doors shut for good. At least till the company that owns the building can figure out what will come of the building.
