Just one more image....I've been meaning to show you the photo bomb of Tilda! I went to Hobby Lobby and used the online coupon for the store to buy her a special broom. As soon as I set her on the back of the couch for a picture, Mr. Tubbs [aka Isaiah] wanted in on the action....
Friday, I had a choice of staying home or going to the Hawk Watch Seminar/Festival in Calallen, Texas. The show didn't start until 2:30 pm and to me, that is when the day starts to wind down. I'm an early morning person. I opted to stay home. Saturday, the 2nd day of the festival, the show begins at 10:30 in the morning. I'll have time BEFORE the show to go walking/birding. That's more like it. So, instead I got out my sketch pad and sketched...this is just a rough sketch, no particular exactness or liking; just a quick piece of work...25-30 minutes and I was done with it...
...and while I was drawing, I was wishin' I had some of the Hershey's Holiday Kisses to snack on. Ya, I know....bad. And loaded with sugar. But, sometimes y'just gotta have it. Well, naturally, the kind I have as a favorite is NOT in the STORES until the Christmas Holiday Season. I noticed some candy warehouses have them on their websites, but really, just how OLD are they? I'll wait 'til the stores have them restocked. After Halloween candy is gone from the shelves. Wait? How OLD ARE THOSE seasonal bags of candy? They're so good. White creamy chocolate [no caffeine like milk/dark chocolate] with surprising shards of candy cane. Delicious. Melt in your mouth delicious. And a refreshing treat. I stopped eating chocolate a few years back, so this is my special holiday treat. Can't wait. I will buy a few bags to get me through the holiday season. Oh oh, another thought just crossed my mind....soon, it's Southern Comfort's Traditional Egg Nog. [no alcoholic content]. That's a standard from Thanksgiving to New Years's here too...adding fat cells as I type. Sometimes I am known to collect fat cells.
Of course, just thinking and droolin' at the thought of those kisses, I had to do a Google....
How many kisses does the candy company, Hershey's make? Well the number is staggering!!!
- the company puts out 60 million Hershey kisses each day

If you need me I won't be home...will be watching the hawk show!!
