OK, after buying a ticket like millions of others, I didn’t win MegaMillions.
It would have been nice, wouldn’t it? Maybe I could fix dreary Columbia!
If you haven’t followed the latest local drama, the “dissing” of Columbia Gateway as dreary, by a New York writer, then you have been out of the local news loop for sure.
Personally, I agree the Gateway area leaves a lot to be desired. Maybe the Columbia residents need to pressure businesses to stop calling something Columbia when it isn’t.
Me, I think I will continue to love my part of the county. Make cookies again tomorrow.
Toll house, and then my mom’s sugar cookie recipe.
And, enjoy my tree from Greenway.
I think I did an awesome job decorating it.
Oh, by the way, much of the area is pretty dreary in the winter. Unless you love sunrises and sunsets, which are the heart and soul of the solstice.
Lovely, isn’t it? And, no, we didn’t win the money.

The lovely photo brings to mind a rhyme I used to hear from my grandfather: “Red sky in the morning, sailors take warning./Red sky at night, sailor’s delight.” I hope it was taken in the evening. We’ve had enough precipitation for December!
