Countdown

It's the Wednesday before Thanksgiving...
It's crunch time.
It's also question time.

Do I make the pie today or tomorrow when it'll be fresher.
If I make it today and screw it up we have time to run out and buy a new pie.
If I make it tomorrow and screw it up we're eating ice cream.

We are in Florida so ice cream is appropriate
Screwed up pies are not.

However, since I have a wing-it, nonchalant attitude towards cooking and baking and I fancy myself a bit of a risk taker, Sally on the edge person, I'm going to bake the pie tomorrow and what will be will be...

honestly. How bad can a jacked up chocolate pie be?

it's chocolate

if it doesn't set up we'll just pour it over the ice cream...

The sweet potatoes are roasted and cooling on the stove.
The celery and stuffing mix are ready to go...
The bird is fresh and waiting to be roasted
There's champagne in the fridge ready to be toasted...
It's thanksgiving eve and we're all on the move
getting ready for family and to hit the food groove...
May your turkey be plump & stuffed to the gills
May your potatoes be fluffy and hold your gravy wells
baby peas wrapped in butter
and hot rolls on your plate...
eat light today people to prepare for Thanksgiving night!

Well that came out of nowhere!

Tomorrow: Giving Thanks!

Oh Balls!

I'm halfway thru the second to last short row repeat... Just in time to get used to trailing three balls around with me and my Color Affection. Needless to say I'm pretty excited to be finished with this and wear it! Happy Sunday!

Knitter Down...I Repeat, We Have a Knitter Down...

It's probably not that dramatic, well maybe it is, who can say for sure....but I can say this, right now from my elbow to my wrist is some gnarly pain that was flared last night after knitting 6 rows of the Shawl...SIX ROWS and then WHAMMO! so much pain. This isn't the first day I've had this, I've actually been ignoring for a few days ...okay, I've been ignoring it for a couple weeks but this is the worst it's been...So, I've made inquiries as to which doctor to see and am waiting to hear back to make an appointment...while I wait ice packs, and copious amounts of pain meds (don't worry by copius I really mean, recommended daily dose) are being taken with the shedding of a few tears while I fondle my knitting... stay tuned...this can't possibly last forever xoxoxo c. p.s. Fati...don't worry I have a plan if this whole wrist issues blows out of control...

Staying home.  Self-Isolating.  Safe Distancing.  For three four months.  My last day at my office was March 12.  If I look back and track how this transition has gone it's roller coaster.  But if you really want an accurate accounting of how my time has been spent These pictures sum it all up Thank you Anna Hrochavec for your amazing inspiring patterns Happy End of June.
