dining solo this year due to illness--not mine! usual suspects assembled--turkey, gravy, stuffing, squash, boiled onions, egg nog ice cream for dessert! i'll be dining a la flannels, me and the rockettes! good time to rack up another UFO finish....
despite the heavily challenging year so far, cannot help but give boundless thanks to God for his constant and unfailing care of family and myself, even in sad moments that still sometimes erupt. diversion with all things sewing has been my rescue many times and most welcomed. looking forward to a Christmas season that i hope brings peace, continued health and care for those i love, serenity, joy and maybe some fun too. i'll just bet you are hoping for the same.....
and the look ahead? well, boothbay harbor, maine, is on it!
isn't that sooo pretty? for a crayola devotee like myself it ticks all my boxes! Christmas quilt on the bed and pulled out cards to get going...this weekend tree goes up with cheerful colored lights and precious ornaments filled with memories...
finally, must always close thanksgiving post with this, a self-portrait of my very favorite pilgrim! hope she is better real soon! Happy Thanksgiving all!
You're welcome to come to our house for dinner! Serving about 4 p.m.........Enjoy the day your way. (And egg nog ice cream? Yum!)
