Final Thoughts:
Midway through the week the streak of oddness seems to be continuing with the stations but manly My58 not providing much content. Is it the freeze, holiday break, or end of the year we got nothing to give just get us to 2014? Because of the lack of content I may or may not cut My58 from the rest of the week. Stay tuned to find out tomorrow. They did talk to NFL Hall of Famer and former 49'er Ronnie Lott who is one of the BEST to have ever played the game. I did enjoy that and because of that it may save them.
Fox sent Sabrina to check out a local school that won one of the highest honors in school newspapers. Nice job by those at Bear Creek. Bethany talked to a local kid chef about what he has learned and his role in the California Literacy Program and their event coming up this weekend.
Good Day Sacramento welcomed back Ken from his 2 day flu.
Marianne did finish her apron and at the time of posting it was up to $76 on eBay. Late breaking Ju also finished her apron after the show and she did a great job. ju apron
Today's theme of the show was Holiday lights. Mark S. Allen made up for the dropped segment from Monday and visited the famous Dovewood Court while Amy went to another viewers home to check out his 49'er themed holiday lights.
Amy also went to look at a Kooky Collection from a viewer who has 100's of snowman decorations. No Santa just snowmen.
Mark brought his Little Talk show on the road asking kids what they wanted for Christmas.
Cody hung out with a guy living in a shed for charity to raise gifts for military families. I loved this. Not so much living in a cold shed but the reason why.
Michael Marks shared his knowledge of persimmons and love for cookies.
Marianne introduced us to 2 sisters that rug hooked all 44 presidents this was so neat. I hope they get it into a museum.
Finally we want Dishin with Tina. I loved this place. I would love to take my friend here for her birthday lunch next month. It's so pretty.
One last thing no word if Cody is going to Pasadena yet so let's keep hope alive with #CodytoPasadena. Today I will be calling the Chamber of Commerce to see what type of events they have planned that Cody can check out.
Looking ahead we have DIY Thursday with ThriftTown and so much more. Until then #CodytoPasadena
