Charlie Brown Thanksgiving on TONIGHT (Monday) at 7:00pm ABC..and no one told me...!!!
I can already tell that I will be updating on a hit-or-miss basis, cause I have a BUSY week lined up, as you probably do too with your turkey and family and the turkeys in your family...So if you don't see me here everyday, do not fret, just go shopping and don't forget the cranberries!
We did our Thanksgiving shopping yesterday...we are very commercial - boxed stuffing (but I LIKE it!), gravy in a jar (have you seen my lumpy gravy?), canned cranberries (the only way I'll eat them)...We've done the big bird (10lbs- big for 2 ppl) and had so many left overs that we felt guilty throwing it out...so we've downsized to just a turkey breast...no bones, no thawing in the sink for 6 hours, and this one has a cajun flavor (I accidentally picked up a cajun turkey, it sounds tasty, tho)...I like the colors on the Thanksgiving plate - burnt orange yams, green casserole, garnet cranberries, pale mashed potatoes - they are the palette of fall...
I'm almost done with my felted tote...I need to measure it, but its larger than Santa's toy sack, that's for certain...I've run out of 3 of the colors and was smart enough to reorder two of them, but alas, the White Oak color is done for now...so I'm adjusting the pattern (I created it, I can adjust it, right?) and making the top of the tote w/ more narrow stripes...its all a monge of mistakes and accidents, but I'm gonna love it, I know...its like your favorite jeans that have holes and paint smears and the pockets won't hold any change but you can't bear to get rid of them..I have a pair that has holes in it from when I smeared my hands on the butt of them, after taking a bead out of the electroforming ACID...guess what - acid burns jeans! d'oh...but I love them and they haven't been tossed..speaking of, I finally tossed the jean shorts I've been wearing for the past OVER 5 years...it was time...they were hurtin'...so they were quietly disposed of...and now I have not a single pair of shorts in my house... I know what I'll be doing this Spring..I live in shorts, I need more!!
I need to wash my car, and make some beads and do some laundry and pick up the dog bone bits so I quit stepping on them...its a gorgeous day here, I'm gonna go get after it...back later kiddos...
