White Never Wrong

White Never Wrong

Posted by on Jan 6, 2022 | 22 comments

  Mama was just reading about Betty White, the actress we all adored.  I am a bit shocked, as, to us, she always appeared so young! So sorry to lose this beloved actress, such a Golden Girl. A tribute to Betty White, who made us laugh for such a long time and made the world a bit brighter. Yet another laugh from us to you. Well, Betty almost made it...

Mama urged me to put in the...

Lights out on New Year’s Day? Why? Well, at mama’s house when she was little it was bad luck to leave Christmas lights and the tree up past New Year’s Day. Since then, mama has seen Christmas trees in some houses all year long, lights in yards left up for weeks afterward, and really, it’s quite cheery and nice to see the little twinkling tree at the end of...

  I just can’t face boxing up anything!  Getting in one, maybe… Well, today is the day that anthros box up all the presents they are giving to the poor, but long ago on large estates, the presents were for the servants.  Not happening around here, I assure you! Or maybe we are all a little guilty of using the day after Christmas to set aside things we...

I can barely stand up after that repas de noël… Watching it, that is. Well, this may not often be done, but we just HAD to re-post this! If it’s the second time, it’s because we looked at it again at breakfast this morning and just fell off our chairs again! It made us so HAPPY ! Okay, I finked out (whatever that is) today, but every time...

(Hmmm…maybe I could learn a few chords from these two…) Well, I just HAD to put this link in my blog today because it’s going to make you all very thankful for music.  These two amazing singers were sent to us by my aunty Jacqueline in Vancouver, a very knowledgeable musician who makes her ukelele dance. That’s misleading, Jacquie...
