    I love your delicious haiku. The fruit, too--the sight took me home to the Dominican Republic. Thank you for that. :-)

    A coup ... terrifying. I was in Havana in July of 1959 when Castro took power... we left in the nick of time. Memories to last my lifetime ...

    Love the mirror image of you and your granddaughter in her Minnie Mouse mask, . I'm not sure if I could handle 100 days of Christmas music. I've never heard of chennets before. Great still life of the fruit. Have a good week, Gillena.
