Sheba, Nice your neighbor is in SD. Hope he can go to the SD Zoo or/and Safari Park, plus there is a Sea World. It’s so nice of you to watch over his place. So far Halloween is slow and I have a lot of candy.
In the picture you posted of Portugal is a Pastel de nata. My hubs enjoyed this custard treat a lot and often. They are sold in the markets and cafe’s. It was created by Portuguese Monks in the early 1800’s. In a city in Portugal I ordered an Ice Coffee. Yup it was on the menu. I literally got a glass, some ice cubes in it, and a tiny cup of hot coffee. I skipped the ice and glass. It was pretty funny. Portugal’s famous dish is Cod or Bacalhau. It is a salted sort of dried cod. The funny thing here is that some Tourists complain about it being salty. It is literally salted cod and a national dish.
Hope you have lots of trick-or-treaters and a nice cool evening.

Oodie, My Mother also wore very bold jewelry. At almost 6 feet tall, and an extrovert; it suited her. Me at 5″4′, not so much. I still kept many of her pieces ( some were stolen).

I consider Heidi Daus Jewelry as high end costume jewelry. Unique, sparkly and fun.

CSPMU, there is a market to sell the jewelry if that interests you. As Heidi says, keep the boxes to store your jewelry, so if you have them it’s even better.

Shoelady, Thanks for the welcome back. Interesting, that we both have some relatives from Poland. Do you know where (not that you have to post it)? I have a friend who said the same but she had no idea. We really didn’t expect to travel to Poland and it turned out to be a great experience.
Glad your sister didn’t have Covid. Do you think she will move back?
