| I just wanted to let the Xanga community know that our dear friend Ninochka passed away very unexpectedly yesterday afternoon. Please pray for her dear husband Blagodat and the many heartbroken friends she leaves behind. It is quite a shock. Thank you all.
We miss you already, Nino.

| I know I have been AWOL for a long time, but I am back now to update my tally for the canning season. The apples we bought the week before Thanksgiving have held perfectly in our unheated garage. Out of 2 1/2 bushels , we've only thrown out one single apple that had gone soft.
Tomorrow my helper (Bruce, the painter with no painting work at the moment) and I will finish the rest of the apples. I think we're just over halfway finished, but don't quote me on that.
Who knows? Maybe this unusual wintertime foray into my spring-summer-fall hobby might get me in the mood to can the cranberry chutney and hot pepper sauce I neglected to attend to in November.
