We thoroughly enjoyed it and you're right about the tears.<br /><br />I have a Meyer Lemon tree plant in my house and can't tell you how much I enjoy watching it blossom and fruit!

Your citrus photo is lovely and the floral design is so inspirational, especially now with Valentine's Day fast approaching. Your weekend I'm sure was fabulous with beautiful weather and seeing friends. I haven't seen the film Hugo but sounds interesting.

And could not be easier. <br /><br /><br />The Getty Center view is spectacular! I am sure that you had a great time. <br /><br />Hogo is on my list of movies to see! I cannot wait. <br /><br />Did you love Downton Abbey? I do not like the scared man, he seems very shady.

Hugo looks like a great film - my mother was going to take Billy to see it, but at the last moment he chose Alvin and the Chipmunks instead! My mother was very disappointed.Joannehttp://www.seagreenreader.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502245000248725118.post-65514826957585879292012-02-06T13:11:37.038-08:002012-02-06T13:11:37.038-08:00Well, we had a lovely, but strange, weekend as we ...Well, we had a lovely, but strange, weekend as we are experiencing LA weather ourselves. Way too warm for this time of year here. Trees are beginning to bud, which bodes ill for a colourful Spring if they don't stop. Climate change I suppose. Since I can do nothing to change things, I decided to go ahead and pretend it was May. I opened all the doors and windows and played Sergio Mendes.<br /><br />And I so agree with you about Hugo!<br />A magical film!Pamela Terry and Edwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746603636884819522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502245000248725118.post-43747152870734815352012-02-06T10:34:44.807-08:002012-02-06T10:34:44.807-08:00Can't wait to see Hugo!Can't wait to see Hugo!Heather Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15704011890607301524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502245000248725118.post-42873955569255705682012-02-06T09:33:33.527-08:002012-02-06T09:33:33.527-08:00Oh I LOVE citrus season!

Happy January! "Pacific Standard Time" looks so interesting; and yet isn't it wonderful that even in the presence of great art, Nature can draw us away with it's own beauty? It looks like an amazing day :)<br /><br />I love to peruse my old cookbooks just for fun. I have built up a rather obscene selection of them now, and keep wondering which ones I should donate, but simply can't bring myself to do it. Someday I will be a stronger person, and I will de-clutter like a pro. :)Miriam@BeBookBoundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08226920262981438778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502245000248725118.post-35359978281634227472012-02-06T09:30:11.011-08:002012-02-06T09:30:11.011-08:00Hi Mom,

I don't want to say why (in case people haven't seen it) but I will say this: I love stories about a character who has to repress certain loves because of painful memories and then something happens where they can no longer keep it hidden. The passion is so strong and real that it is destined to come to the surface once again. I just loved HUGO so much!<br /><br />xoMeg<br /><br />p.s. How funny was Sasha Baron Cohen??Megan Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00520307813991565047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502245000248725118.post-55751193698503310442012-02-06T09:14:25.144-08:002012-02-06T09:14:25.144-08:00I have to admit to being a bit envious of your Feb...I have to admit to being a bit envious of your February farmers market. Ours is only open from April to October! Of course, normally there wouldn't be any Kansas food in the winter, but we've actually had lovely weather (it's kind of freaking me out). Our herb garden is still alive!<br /><br />I love <i>Breakfast at Tiffany's</i>. I read it over Thanksgiving break when I was in middle school. It was definitely a literary life-changer. I love the edition you have--gorgeous!Lauren Hairstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18037717621464819611noreply@blogger.com
