---- Thanksgiving/Christmas -- 2022

November 2022:  Visit to Palm Springs for Pride.  Saying at Greg's

Greg and I attend a play called "Choir Boy" at the Pearl McManus Theater at the Palm Springs Woman’s Club.  It was quite good


The Marilyn statue has returned to a place of honor.

Covid came to our home. Greg tested positive while I kept testing negative??? Mystery.

Thanksgiving 2022 visit from Joel, Elaine and B arbara


This was a project to may pupusas.  We used masa dough into which we stuffed a cheese mixture and flatten them out.  Very delicious.


Cheese stuffing is rolled into small ball.


The ball of dough with the filling is flattened using a zip lock bag marked with the desired diameter.


The pupusa is lightly fried until brown marks appear.


Curtido, a Salvadoran cabbage slaw served alongside.

 

On another day, we drove to Concord Costco and on the way home we stopped at a favorite restaurant called Mercado del Sol.  Big portions.

 

We hosted a little Thanksgiving get-together at my house.


Barbara, Elaine and Charles.

 

On another day we drove to the Kerwin Gallery in Burlingame.


On another day we stopped at Marcus and Bae's in El Cerrito.


Marcus donated a chain saw to the Smyrna On-Line Bazaar.
