While the sun shines . . .

 Remember how I said I'd literally been making hay while the sun shone? Well, I should clarify. I wasn't actually making hay, but I was being mad hott productive while the weather was sunny. So mad hott productive, that by the time Liz came down for a surprise visit I was much in the mood for a garden retreat at my godmother's place in Petaluma. Here it is in all its decadent glory, complete with delicious pears and local cheeses, champagne, and al fresco scrabble. It was so warm and sunny we even had to break out the sunscreen. I love California in January!
