This woman's Mother sounds like a ton of fun. My observations in life has shown me that the key to a long life seems to be continuous curiosity. Even if you don't travel as much as this lady does, if you are still keen on what is going on around you and beyond, you seem to stand a better chance at bothering your family for many many decades. I think this is inspiring. Eat plenty of greens, go on walks and stay interested in the business of living.

Today I went with Senor Onion's preschool class to a puppet show. It was the first time he has been to one. It was a production of The Gingerbread Boy. (something the class has been reading this week) It was fairly entertaining and the props and puppets were original as many were made from recycled/re-purposed objects. The kids seemed to enjoy themselves. Senor Onion's attention was held the entire time. (about forty-five minutes) His new friend giggled the whole way through. This little boy adores Senor Onion. His Dad was telling me that all they hear about is Senor Onion. It is really sweet. They are on the same sort of emotional wave-length and both appreciate a good vehicle and put up with younger sisters who rule them.

This afternoon I baked up some Christmas cakes. I hope they turn out well. They are for some friends. Baked goods for all I say.

Now to put myself to bed.
