'Tis the season for goodies . . . Judy Robinson delivered yesterday; oh, those sugared pecans! . . . Michelle Freed sent her dad Ed with a beautiful array of cookies; her "coconut sandies" are a big hit this season. but JJ prefers the ones with a Hershey kiss in the middle . . . Mary Ann Furedi slipped some tasty-looking baked treats to Bob late this afternoon; I haven't had a look-see there yet . . . Yvonne Brown came by with two boxes of candies so Bob and I don't fight over who gets what; she and Bob have exchanged chocolates and fresh pears so often that it is practically a tradition. Yvonne's husband Wes celebrated his 90th birthday on Saturday. The five children are scattered and were prevented by the weather from travelling so daughter Claire in Ohio arranged a conference call. It was a heart-warming event Yvonne says . . . Angela Lawson and granddaughter Addison are baking cookies too, the slice-and-bake kind. "Good grandmother and no mess," Angela says . . . I am helping out Eric and Joanne by eating some of the wedding cake left-overs. Eric has lost one of his beloved blue Penn State gloves somewhere in the neighborhood. If found, please drop off at The Bare Wall . . . JJ is attending the Christmas party at The Residence tonight; he was barred from last year's celebration for some now-forgotten reason . . . The picture is a seasonal postcard from Dan Beard and Jon Hulka's home in Fulton County; they obviously got a better taste of Saturday's storm than we did . . .
