I have a ceramic table-top tree my eldest brother made for our mother
back in 1966. That's pretty much my nod to Christmas decorating. I
might hang a faux wreath on the front door with faux icicles and
ribbons. It's in a box in the garage. I'm waiting for the mood to
strike me.

Good luck on the stove hunting!

There's someone in a local neighborhood (they don't live on Dataw) who
said the Ring doorbell camera caught someone trying to steal packages
UPS left at their front door. Apparently it does work just like the
commercials claim. If you have a smartphone and are paying attention to
the alerts.

I like it! I converted back to a gas range about 5 years ago after using
a glass top stove for about 20 years. Really do like my gas range and was
raised with one in the house so it was just a day or two to get used to it.

When I did my Thanksgiving ham I used the timed baking feature for the first
time and REALLY like it. When the signal went off I went to the kitchen and the oven had shut itself off and cancelled the cook time. Nice!
