Mom stayed with us most of December. She went home on the 27th. I went back over on the 7th of January. Mom has surgery on her eyes to raise her lids. She was seeing through slits. We had that done and a week later she had her follow up appointment and we came back home to get ready for Curtis' wedding. Dave and Audrey Ross came with dinner the night of her surgery....it was WONDERFUL. He had made this soup called Zuppa Toscana Soup: It was to good I am going to print the recipe for you.....
