Daughter Lise lives so far away (Denmark) that we try to make every moment count when she is here. The first photo was taken at a favorite restaurant in Asheville.
Below are Easter breads Lise brought from Italy. She worked in Milan for several weeks and loved the people and the food there. The first was a small one, almost an individual serving. A broken tulip indicates the size. The chocolate covered one was huge, resting on a large dinner plate. It was filled with tubes of soft chocolate. Both were delicious.
I remembered to have Lise take a selfie the first time we walked to the creek. Walking is an exercise we both enjoy.
Sunburst is my favorite waterfall. For the first time, I didn’t stay on the bridge, but went out on the rocks that line the stream. For some reason I started the video. I don’t know what I wanted, but result has amused me. It shows how people get in place when asked to pose together This took longer for them, because the rocks were uneven and slanted. The still shot was routine. When you put the two together, you have the brief history of the photo.

Wish I could have shared that Easter bread with you. The chocolate looked tube-shaped, but it was actually soft, like filling for a donut.

It sounded like melted chocolate in your description–like from baking. But “pudding” tubes, even better! I wish you could have shared it, too!

I enjoyed the video too! And the cakes were very special. But just having a faraway daughter visit is wonderful indeed.

Lise used to come once a year, and now she might come back two more times this year. She loves to travel to exotic places, so I’m thrilled whenever she comes.

Lise is far away, but she did spend two months with me after John died. Her help in sorting things out was priceless.

I love this so much, and missed your writing! (not a guilt thing — I know I haven’t been writing much, either). Really loved the behind-the-scenes prep for the photo and final result. Very fun. Well done, you, for getting rocky!

I wouldn’t have gone out on the rocks without either Lise or David. It was super to have them both.

That’s a great selfie shot of you and Lise. I like the prep for the rocks video – David and Lise made it look easy to stand there on the slippery rocks and remain cool as cucumbers.

Those rocks were dry and not slippery, but they were at horrible angles.
