Friends, I’m BACK! It was a rough weekend on Long Island but I was glad to be hunkered down with some of my favorite people. Mom baked little peach pies before we lost power, and we stocked up on plenty of alcohol and other nonperishables.
Twapped!
A giant tree was struck by lightning and fell, blocking our driveway. When the police commissioner came to tell us we couldn’t leave the house for a few days, we broke out the pipecleaners and the beads, the books and the paper cups and decided to have a little party. Charades by candlelight can be more fun than you think. Living in sweats was pretty fab, too.
Here are some of our best shots. Send me yours!!
- We gathered candles from around the house–47 in all–and this created a lovely atmosphere for parlor games.
As some of you are aware, I have hoarding tendancies. This weekend trapped at Mom’s house allowed me some time to clean out the closet, and two of my best girls scored tons of new duds!

There was also plenty of time to play with makeup, and baby bro even let us have fun doing his eyes!
Note my pipecleaner bracelet (thank you Di), and self-braids. And scary old polo shirt from God knows where...
BING!
