Finally got the additional river rocks to fill the space that we can't plant anything. Not the perfect solution, but at least it's not a dirt hole like before.
And three of my parrots have been attached to this wonderful jungle-y print that Bev gave me last season from her printing class. I need to do some stitching to finish it up. Hope she approves, she DID say to do anything I wanted with it.
The Costco pomegranates- these are the size of nerf balls, huge and heavy, what was I thinking to get a whole crate of them? After Thanksgiving they will segue right into beinbg my Christmas decor. All of my decor!
Picked up the adolescent turkey today, also found a company that makes preserves in the 'shadow of Mt. Ararat in Arnemia' Since the pumpkin butter was $9.99 (!) and in a pint jar I downsized into the 4 oz. jar and opted for Peach Preserves which I will give to the Armenians coming to dinner! I made my own pumpkin butter the day before and a whole bowl of it cost me maybe $1.79 (but I didn't get the pretty label).
Had a windfall come flying over my gate today- my fabric order from reprodepot is here. Cool stuff, the best being Japanese remnants- I just don't have much of a supply here and the fabric shops seem to just carry prints with surfboards and flamingos, not my thing.
And another envelope with a gift from TY- a bright red tee shirt with, "Dyslexics are Teople Poo". He claims I am only mildly afflicted, just because I cannot say which is left and which is right!
And finally, I snuck into the garage to take pictures, really close up of TY's Cobra. I was in the thrift store the other day and found 4" beveled glass coasters that begged to have the faded green felt ripped off and be decoupaged with something a bit more interesting.
So, here are the photos I will stick on, replace the felt, and voila, a Christmas present! Done. Wish me luck.

I am also left/right challenged and can write mirror script almost as easily as regular. Definitely some kind of dyslectic thing going on, but I was a great reader. Maybe it is the sign of genious, a la Leonardo! Love the T shirt. I used to have a big button- D.A.M. (mothers against dyslexia)
Hey, that coaster idea is really fantastic, girlfriend!
