🦃 🦃 🦃 It's a beautiful Saturday morning and yours truly was wondering what to write about when I decided to have some leftover stuffing for breakfast. 
Voila! Instant blog post subject matter. 
Write about what you know, they say.
So I did just that, once again. 

Happy weekend! Don't stress yourself out in the stores. The merchandise will be there next week.

Recuperation journey: Happy Pie for Breakfast Day

I don't do Black Friday. Not my idea of a good time.

But I do indulge in leftover pie for breakfast.
Hmm ... should I have apple or pumpkin?

Today I'll visit the beautiful Osborne Homestead Museum that is decorated each holiday season by area garden club members. This year's theme is "Holiday at the Opera."
Today is the first day; the schedule is:

"Holiday tours will run through Dec. 17. Tours will be offered Thursdays through Sundays from 10 a.m.-4 p.m.  

On Fridays, Dec. 1, 8, and 15, from 4-7 p.m., the museum will present “Twilight Tours” to display the shimmering glow of the decorations."

The museum is at 500 Hawthorne Ave., Derby. Don't miss the beautiful decorations. They'll put you in the holiday spirit.
