We're out on our deck this morning. 55* but I'm bundled into my thick plush robe and am fairly comfy. Yesterday I played with Nutcracker scraps. Bill worked on quilting the motorcycle quilt. This morning - more scrap play, more quilting. I'm going to take the motorcycle scraps and make binding from them. Our Seahawks play at 1:30 so I only have this morning in the sewing room. Then I'm going to park my hiney on the deck couch and watch football, pretending to work on my cross-stitch project - a Christmas stocking for Bill. I'm about 80% finished but I've been working on it for 10 months. Not sure it's going to be done before Christmas. But I'm trying. I work on it almost every evening and every football game.
LORI - I'm so sorry about your friend. But it sounds as if she made the very most of her gift of life. God bless her. I know you'll miss her. I Googled Holly Berry quilt but what I found didn't match your description. Who is the designer?
JANA - how great of your family to all pitch in to help Sandee! Typical of you all!
And what fun your littles must have had - a Play Doh party!BECCA - your days always fill up, don't they. My mom was a good farm cook. And, in the early years of their marriage she was the cook in a logging camp on the Olympic Peninsula. One day while Daddy was at work a forest fire started. Mom had my two oldest brothers, a baby and a toddler, and she tried to escape with them but the old Model A died, so she took them and waded into an icy river to wait until the flames passed them. Mom was a strong, special lady.
As for our supper, we still have quite a bit of pork left so we're going to have pork fried noodles. I'm going to make it up as I go along. We have a lot of meals like that.
And a salad on the side.What's your best recipe for leftover pork roast?
