December!
We have officially started the last month of 2024! Did everyone get their plans they had made for the year completed? I sure didn’t and with only a month to go, I won’t! Always next year!!!
I did get a fairly large quilt bound. My 2015 bom from Honey Bee in Austin is done!
Made progress on my Buds and Blooms, a cozy quilt pattern. All 20 block A’s are done. Had hoped to start block B but that will wait for a few days.
We are finally having cooler weather. Good soup weather, but then we will eat soup anytime. Opened up a jar one night of my canned chicken corn noodles soup. Added noodles while it was heating up. Another night I made Hot Italian Sausage and Clam soup. Another favorite of ours. If you Google it I fix the recipe from the Kling House at Kitchen Kettle Village. It is one of their signature recipes and it is free online
Our Thanksgiving was quiet, just the 2 of us. A little quieter than usual. Donna, our sister in law I’m PA, passed the night before. Even when expected it is still hard.
Our Christmas decorating has begun. Galen worked on the outside on and off last week. As always need to replace a laser light or two. They do wear out.
We replaced our getting old artificial tree with a Balsam Hill tree this year. Our 20 plus year old one was shedding a lot of needles! The tree is up. Galen did it yesterday. He is getting really good at decorating our tree while I work on something else. Yesterday was getting Christmas doggy bandanas sewn for Lady’s groomer. Will get those finished by Monday evening so we can drop them off Tuesday when they open.
That about does it for us. Until next time stay safe.
