I have just returned from Michigan where I spent the last 5 days in the best place on earth. The people are real and real nice, the food was delish and the weather was anything but frightful. I love to spend time with the folks that are there. They make me feel happy to hang out, and they always make me feel welcome. Who can argue with hugs, then beer, then stories and jokes? They help each other have fun without it being an all out affair and will never let you make a complete fool out of yourself. If you manage to sneak in being a partial fool...they will forgive you.
We generously call it "taking your turn".
Yeah, I made food. I made a lot of sweets. I made the dessert for Forest Dunes for their Beaujolais Nouveau dinner on Saturday and it was swell. I went on an afternoon snowmobile ride, where I got dumped off. But my husband and I giggled like kids and got back on. It snowed another half a foot and was so quiet to be out in it. It felt like a gift. Peace incarnate. I made soup and spent time cuddled under my softest comforter attempting crossword puzzles while my 12 year old took a nap (this is special in case you didn't know). The time spent up there was reinvigorating, except for the part where I had to leave. With any luck, we will be back in 3 weeks for Christmas.
