Generally when I post in the mornings I'm sitting on the living room couch, coffee at my elbow, laptop atop my lap. But by the time I get to the Supper Club portion of my Q-time, Foxy is nagging me. He wants me to come into the sewing room where his dish and basket are, watch him eat, have a little "pet the cat" time, and then stick around while he settles into his basket for the day. So, tired of being fussed at by a cat, I just moved the computer into the sewing room this morning. He's now settled in his basket which is on a top shelf and peeking at me over the edge to make sure I don't try to sneak out before he falls asleep. Tell me who runs our household! lol!!
I haven't been doing much lately but laundry, making suppers, and working on my little stars. I've got all my colored fabrics cut and today will finish cutting my WOW backgrounds. I made 16 stars yesterday. I have a total of 73 left to sew. I do have some uglies to do today, so I won't be in the sewing room ALL day. I also need to make a shopping list and should hit the store today rather than tomorrow. It's zoo time at any grocery store, I'm sure.
IRISH - OMG! Your poor Kathy! What an awful experience for her! From what I read about GBS, it's cause is unknown, but it can occur as a body's immune system tries to fight a viral infection and mistakenly attacks healthy nerves instead. Saying a prayer for them both that he recovers enough to be able to fly home soon. I'm going to bet they never want to return to Europe again. Have their bags ever shown up? What a trifecta of bad luck!
CAROL - yes, Chip is happy to be home once again. I'm sure he was as lonesome for me (and Foxy!) as we were for him. Now when we get Stitch home again, our little sewing group will all be together again.
JANA - so how long is "normal" for your hair? Just curious. I made your chicken recipe last night. It was good. Billy liked it! I added capers (because I have a big jar and am always looking for opportunities to use them), a couple shakes of cayenne (because we like a bit of zip), and a short splash of wine (because we are winos). We have enough of everything left for a do-over again tonite! Thanks for the recipe.
VELDA - I missed where you were planning a trip. Where ya goin'? Sounds like a nice day for travel except for the traffic tie-up. So often when that happens, you wait and wait and when you finally get to the site, there is nothing left. I guess you wait while they clear it all. Be safe! When are you returning?
Well, last night's chicken dish over pasta was excellent. Thank you, Jana, for that recipe! It's such a simple recipe I kept looking for more ingredients. And it smelled so good while cooking. And you were right! It only took about 5 hours to cook on LOW. We're going to have it again tonite. I made it with two chicken breasts (neither of us care for dark meat) and we always split one so we have another to split tonite.
Happy Holiday Eating!
