Thanks for selecting the Northern Lights video for us. We all just sat down and watched it. Off to my hairdresser's for my winter perm. I should look good by my hubby's side at his work Christmas party.

Hi Eve. Just catching up with the reading since my last post Monday Page 2 and have read about your poor foot! I hope it is recovering well, but did you get a Tetanus injection (unless you've had one recently)! Having a painful foot is not much fun at any time, but at this time of the year when you probably have too many things to do, it must be awful. i am very sorry for you!

I missed "Up above the Northern Lights" when you had it here but I just googled it by copying & pasting this "MANNHEIM STEAMROLLER - "UP ABOVE THE NORTHERN LIGHTS" " from your comment yesterday on page three! Thanks Eve, I also enjoyed Bing & Bowie! Thank you. I've also caught up with your gallery photos! You were (still are!) a beautiful young girl!

Eve, the stripes on the zebra are moving in and out, but I think it's because the zebra wants more bubbly ...
Mmmm. "Sugar pie honey bunch." Now that's a real "Temptation" isn't it? I grew up in the Detroit area, so Motown songs are just about like national anthems to me. They sort of soak in from hearing them on the clock radio between sleeping and waking.

Hi Eve! I'm slowly catching up on Sudoku after our long trip through Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, & Cambodia. Thank you for your birthday greeting on Dec. 4. I had a very special day which began when we watched the sun rise at Angkor Wat in Cambodia - unforgettable! I have posted only one
picture of our trip on my page so far, but I will try to whittle down the thousands of pictures we took to just our favorites & post them on Flickr as soon as I can find time. Meanwhile, Rob & I would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas & Happy New Year. It will be 2009 before we know it! I'm looking forward to seeing some pictures of the Rose Bowl float you'll be working on. Have fun!

Hi there Eve,,

Wishing you and your loved ones a wonderful blessed Christmas this year

I guess that while we swelter in Darwin you may swelter at home and may even have to work!!
But whatever and where ever, may it be a lovely celebration for you.

Here’s the traditional
LEMON CORDIAL
Ingredients:
Juice of 7 large lemons
Grated rind of 5 large lemons
1 kg sugar
1.25 litres of water
25g citric acid
Method:
1.In a large pan, boil up sugar, water, grated peel and citric acid.
2.Take off and add juice, If preferred, this may be strained.
3.Bottle whilst still hot into clean, sterilised (in oven) bottles
Mix it with gin and soda if you want an alcoholic drink. I prefer staight soda
May 2009 be a healthy, peaceful, joyful, hopeful, satisfying year for you

MERRY CHRISTMAS, Eve, to you and your family.

Looks like you're down here to work on the La Canada/Flintridge float? Have fun and hope it wins a trophy, too!

Gotta work on the 26th, but have a fun time with the other Sudoku-ers!

Fantastic Eve! I have been anxiously awaiting your return to Sudokuland, in hopes that you would bring some float pictures. I missed the national broadcast due to a sick child. Great work on the float!

back and EVE...May you have a wonderful year.
The float was fantastic...great animation and congratulations to all involved. A very joyful bit of fantasy!
I had a great time over the holidays...bittersweet but filled with love and good memories as well...only problem, we all got sick as we were about to head home...I don't think I had fully recovered before going, but are all now feeling lots better after meds have done there jobs as well as a little time.
Thanks for the support in Penn State's defeat...they looked really bad, but that's life...now my Phillies have won...The Sixers and Flyers have made the playoffs as have the Eagles...but its been a hard road to go all the way...perhaps its time..... GO EAGLES...thanks for adding your cheers to mine....I agree that its hard to keep saying wait until next year!!!

I saw your float in the parade, Eve! So I had a "sneak peek". I also saw Shosho's pics on her page of when it was being built. You and the others on the crew did a great job
on the award!

Eve - I'm so thrilled your float won an award...and I can see why they gave it an award for outstanding animation. I was awed at all the wonderful moving parts that went along with the song. What a fun task (and hard work, too).
Glad you had a chance to hook up with Sharon - she's a little fire cracker, isn't she?
Thanks for posting the youtube of the float - it was a treat to see!

Eve, I saw the float New Years, always try to watch the parade. It deserved the award for best animation it was outstanding. So many moving parts to worry about. It was nice to see the float again on your Utube. You and the others did a great job decorating the float.
An ex-BIL use to drive one of the football floats, don't know if he still does.

Hi Eve. I enjoyed looking at the you tubes of the float a few days ago, but ran out of time to say so here - had an appointment else where!! It was a wonderful creation!!! And well deserved the prize.

Hi Eve, don't think I've visited your page before. I just had a look through your photos - loved your quilt photos, your story of the horse with the artificial leg and the amazing story of the ducklings - you had me on the edge of my seat with that one! And congratulations on winning the float award! :)
