I'm not sure it has gotten above 40 all day here with a horrible wind gusting in the 20's....the main part of the house is toasty and I used the excuse to fly about straightening the house early so I could spend the afternoon crocheting on Jeremy's Christmas pressie, drinking my new fav hotchocolate, and eating toll house cookies.
One of my Ville friends sent a pack of toffee flavored cocoa to me, knowing she was getting me addicted. Of course our little stores here in O town wouldn't carry it, but while I was making the rounds in the big city I found carmel flavored... just as high on the list and just on the verge of sinful when eaten with a Toll house cookie...
...I HAD to bake cookies... I NEEDED to keep the house warm with the oven....
.....Jerm's gift is going very well... I already have 36 rows finished ...117 more to go not counting the border.. I am hoping to finish by next Monday ...
.....I ordered the sweetest little book today... for somereason I have gone on a vintage book kick...this book isn't exxactly vintage ( 1982), but with the title I HAD to get it! Of course the Mr. already sent me a memo on that one... "We live at the end of the ROAD", ...yes dear, but how much more romantic does LANE sound ???...
...Last night I decided to shuffle through the vintage books I did have and decided to give "An Old Fashion Thanksgiving" another read through....Louisa Mae Alcott dears....and very simple gentle story that set my mind right back on the task of being thankful.
....AND to prove I have done more then sit and eat cookies all day, I came across this pictorial tuorial and made a few as little pressies for the girls: ...well...I can't get the link to post... I'm sure its me and firefox not jiving again.....but let me tell you its made from 2 bottle caps and a bit of felt and a wee bit of crafting thread... and if you do a google search for bottle cap pin cushions I'm sure you'll hit on it... well worth the look see.
......AND I have done all this with a 20 lb cat trying to take up my lap....
.....I'll probably crochet a couple more rows, maybe work on a new ornie project, catch up on a few blogs and tuck myself in with my book....
...so...night night... sleep tight.... don't let the bed bugs bite
