Those Who Chose Car Wash Were Correct

…and a few nice gifts

Monday, January 4

 

 

If you chose car wash for my mystery photo last night – you were correct.

 

 

This car wash is not far from our house, and Cerwin likes it because (if he moves fast enough) it only costs $1.00.

 

 

He has a dislike for pulling a car into our garage that is covered with road salt.

(He also has a dislike for paying a lot of money at a regular car wash  – and it’s too cold to wash our car outside at home.)

Gifts I forgot to photograph while in Maine

~~~

 

 

Lydia, our youngest Maine granddaughter, made this pretty candle by using stamping items.

The candle was purchased. She then stamped these birdhouses on a piece of tissue paper, trimmed it close to the design, placed it in the correct spot on the candle, covered it with wax paper (to protect the tissue paper), then attached the stamped tissue paper to the candle by using a heat gun.

 

 

The other side of the candle.

This makes a really cute and classy-looking candle.

 

 

Then there was this delicious gift of homemade granola from our daughter Diane: regular; tropical with raisins; cranberry walnut; tropical; and chocolate peanut butter. 

YUM!

The tropical is my favorite.

Thanks, Lydia and Diane.
