Seems like Nostalgia is hitting hard this weekend. A bit of a back story. My father and Mother both worked at St. Mary’s Hospital. Which was located about 35 miles from my childhood home on the Eastside of Tucson, and about 50-60 miles from our current home. For special occasions, or their hospital holiday parties, we would come to a Mexican restaurant called Karichimaka (pool of clear water). I had not been there since 1976.

So we had to do some things way over on the Southwest part of town, and inquired if it was even still there. It was! The place has not changed a bit, and to be honest a few tears were shed, as a flood of memories of Dad, mom, and the “characters” from the Hospital that were our “hospital family”. It was special to share that with @AvocadoQueen as she has never been here

Anyway I look upon the cadre family as the same

Yes, sappy, but a good holiday gift

I need to share my den with the spousal unit for a week over Christmas. Last time I removed all my brushes and most of my scents to make counter space. Not this year. Before:
