****I’m writing this as another
reminder. If you see/read the blog
entries by getting an email (which generally comes between NOON and 1 PM), and
you would like to leave me a comment….replying to the email does absolutely
NOTHING! If you look at the address when
you hit the reply button, the address will say “no-reply blogger”…and it goes
off into cyberspace…never to be seen again.
If you want to send me an email, you must FORWARD the email you get from
the blog, and type in my email address. The
only way to leave a comment is to go to the blog itself (there IS a link
at the bottom of the email) and to leave the comment in the open box at the
bottom of each post. No matter how old
the post it, I will see the comment, because they have to be approved by me
before they are posted. So each day when
I sign on to write something, my sign on automatically shows me any comments
made since the day before, no matter what post they are attached too. All blogs work this way…you can’t just reply
to the email. Is this clear as mud now?***
It was raining again when we got up on
Wednesday (12/30), so Michael cancelled out of golf and headed to the grocery
store for mushrooms and spinach to make his breakfast omelet. I got
Pat’s turkey carcass (along with some frozen veggie peelings from my own
freezer) into the crockpots while he was gone,
and also made up a sheet pan of
granola to bake for an hour:

| before baking.... |
 |
| part way through..... |
 |
| yum! |
I spent the rest of the
day in the studio, happily sewing, quilting, binding, etc. I finished the quilting on the bargello and
loaded up the “reading” quilt right behind it, with just about an inch to
spare.
 |
| glad I loaded a double length of backing |
I also worked on the blue “leftovers”
quilt and it is finally, totally finished.

| I didn't think I'd get this done til January....oh well... |
After Michael planted the amaryllis bulb that Paula gave us for
Christmas,
he came down to play a couple games of pool while I was sewing, and
we watched a bit of TV together. We had
leftover ham, etc for dinner, then I spent an hour SKYPING with Janice before
heading upstairs around 8:30 PM. Michael
was just finishing up a chapter in his book, so I got the turkey stuff out of
the crockpot and into the fridge, before we settled in front of the TV for the
rest of the evening.
When I went to Stitch & Chat on
Tuesday, I got 2 more beautiful hats for Clinton School…this group had been
absolutely wonderful and generous with their money, their time and their yarn!
Has there been a single blog post in 2015 that does not include you preparing trays or pots or crocks of food?
