The house has been quiet since Christmas... We are still working our way through the Christmas food things ( like cookies, Chex mix etc.).
.Except my teacher daughter, grand daughter and I went to see a very upscale kitchen etc store. That doesn't exactly describe Cockrells Mercantile down in Lee's Summit which is about 20 minutes from here. It's a complex of buildings... a larger remodeled house with everything from LeCreuset cookware to dip mixes to jams and jellies and so on... where Lili and I found a few things.I even found some things for next year's quilting gift exchange on sale ! 50% off!
There are other smaller redone houses - holding designer clothing in one, Fiestaware in another, baking items in a third, children's items in the last!!
The courtyard and paths are brick which was a little treacherous with the light snow and rain falling but the others (LOL) made sure I was safe.
On the way home we treated ourselves to LaMar's donuts!!
Today it was grocery shopping for me. My daughter and grandson headed out to the KC Zoo.. planning on seeing the new Aquarium, Penguins , polar bear and so on. All the snow melted and no new rain today, so the trip should have been fun!!
Also we were visited by a neighbor and his Junior Girl Scout daughter... it's GS cookie selling time. We ordered 5 boxes which will be here in February!! By then the Christmas goodies should be gone!!
