This is the first year I noticed the berries on our Palm Tree were red. Upon further research I believe it is called a Christmas Palm
During summer months the Christmas Palm produces light green flower buds that turn into creamy blossom. Unisexual flowers are held by 2ft long branched stalks that emerge from the area where the crownshaft attaches to the trunk. In December flowers are followed by green oval fruits that turn bright red as they ripe. Berrie-like fruits are 1 inch long and 1/5 inch wide. They hang in clusters looking like Christmas ornament, therefore palm’s common name is Christmas Palm

Before packing up the tree for another year (not sure how many more it is going to make) I decided to gather this years ornaments together for a photo. My mother purchases my children an ornament every year just like my grandmother use to do. When they move out they will be able to take their ornaments with them and it will be the first ones to adorn their own Christmas trees.

Today I couldn’t help but marvel over my eight year old daughter’s choice of side dishes when we went to Boston Market. I gravitated towards the loaded mashed potatoes and cinnamon apples, she chooses cream spinach and corn (and loved them!)

This photo makes my daughter smile so I thought it would be a good selection for the day. She currently has 99 Littlest Pet Shop pets in her collection.

Sunday was an on again off again rainy day in South Florida. One minute the sun would be shining and the next the heavens would open up and it would be pouring.

A little fan spirit for the BCS National Football Championship. Can I say what an A-M-A-Z-I-N-G game? We were ecstatic with the outcome!

My daughter is a night owl, which means when she was on vacation from school she went to bed and got up late. Monday night she couldn’t sleep so I was not surprised that by 7:30 we found her here…
