I’m always surprised what pops up when I type the number in the search box. This week the surprise was an old photo of my sister’s wedding. My youngest sister and I were the matrons of honour and our parents were standing behind us.
…this week we’re looking for photos with the number 242 in the search box

This week 242 pulled up photos of flowers, an evening at the rugby game in Guelph, outside our flat in London, the V & A in Scotland, road trip to the east coast, Kevin’s art, our granddaughter in London, the CNE and old photos of my parents.

When I say ‘unusual crops’ I’m not referring to food but to a photography term where you ‘cut away’ parts of the photo to make it more interesting. Here are my submissions.
…looking through the archives
All these trios came from my 2016 archives but one photo is clearly over 40 years old. Can you pick out which one it is?
…today’s number is 230

Today’s number pulled up photos from my past as a little girl, my granddaughters, flowers, views from High Park, art, my husband after a bike mishap and my son’s balcony garden in London.
…and time with family and friends
Kevin and I still have some family and friends to visit before this holiday season is officially over. Sadly it may not happen until January because this terrible flu that’s going around has affected these same people we had planned to visit.
Apart from that it’s been a busy and productive season. Christmas Eve was quiet and Kevin and I exchanged a few gifts, enjoyed some light snacks and watched some Christmas movies. The next day we had Andrea and Josie over for dinner. I prepared the turkey and the stuffing before they arrived. After opening a few more gifts everyone pitched in and helped prepared the side dishes. We sat down to an absolutely lovely meal of roast turkey, a rice stuffing, cranberry and orange relish, green beans with almonds, Brussels sprouts with bacon and mashed potatoes. For dessert we had ice-cream topped with our homemade Rumtopf.
