The Weekend Roundup - 'X'

Friday arrives at the perfect time since it’s time for a post in Tom’s fun meme, The Weekend Roundup. I am happy that the prompt lets us include the letter ‘X’ (as well as beginning with)…

Box has an ‘X’ within, and what correlates better than a cat in a Box. Linus McDonald relaxes in a shoebox - how do they even fit?

I believe there is an ‘X’ in Manhattan’s Times Square at the intersection of Broadway and 45th Street. So these photos include my dad in 1939 and 1946 at that famous 'X'
Excellent includes a recent dinner at our favorite Ansonia restaurant, Rosa Mina on East Main St. My Excellent entree was the Shrimp Fra Diavlo, spicy with lots of cherry peppers sitting on a bed of linguini. Desert was their homemade apple crumb cheesecake. We had to share this excellent after dinner treat!

A Favorite. The always lovely Patti captured the brilliant ruby cardinal on a snowy morning in our back yard. It adds a nice warmth to a cold day...Have a great week all!

  2. ...Raloh, there is nothing easy about X, but you can up with a good number of them! I wish that Rosa Mina was a bit closer!!! Few things say Christmas better than a Cardinal in the snow. Thanks for stopping by, it was nice to have you here.

  5. That's a pretty cat in the shoe box. Cats are like kids, they too like to play in boxes. Nice NYC picture and cardinal also.
