So much to be thankful for.

Welcome! Happy to be here with you.

Well, Thanksgiving has come and gone and I must say I have so very much to be thankful for. 

Family: my husband, my daughter with husband and twin grandchildren, my son with his 3 daughters. Love them all so much. 

I am thankful for this wonderful place where I live. Also for great friends that I've made in the 

"rug hooking" world. they are so dear to my heart.

Our Thanksgiving was like no other. It started with watching the Macy's Day Parade. Then kicked up our feet and watched plenty of football as i also worked on my knitting. We never changed out of our pj's till later in the day. Why? Not sure as we didn't do anything different. Hubby is now on antibiotics for an infection that's been coming on. He should feel better soon.

Can this be considered a Thanksgiving rug? or is it just a chicken rug...rooster?

Today hubby wanted to treat me..so this is what my lunch was. Yummy! Much Appreciated.

Well i will cut this short..Thank you so much for taking time out of your day and being here with me.

Be sure to let me know you were here...love to read your comments/

A Bientot!

Ps..

Finally working on a Christmas rug (gift) from last year. I am loving it!

There's a chill in the air!

 MULTI-TASKING 

 

Or is it that I have a hard time focusing on just one thing?

Sunday..fun day..football...baking...knitting...and with headphones on watching a YouTube on wet felting a clutch purse. If it peaks your interest head on over to wet felting a clutch purse. Very interesting and so many more projects.

Below are a few inspirations for hooked rug patterns.

Oops! Not sure what happened here!

Chill in the air for sure and that results in a pot of homemade chicken stew with homemade artisan French rolls.

Another idea for a rug mat. Yeah?

 

Who knew there were cranberry bogs here in Wells, Me. Oh wait I think it's actually on the line in Kennebunk.  What a great little store they have with a small meat market and lot's of baked items made on the premises by the owner. Cranberry breads, chicken pot pies and much more. Can't wait to go back and checkout their bogs. Who knew?!

 

These next 2 photos are a couple more ideas to ponder.

This is my favorite book. I love making bread and this has the best recipes. 

My daughter is hosting Thanksgiving and loves to have homemade breads and rolls. I will let this batch rest in the fridge for a few days. I will also make a loaf of anadama. (My personal favorite)

So, have I told you how I HATE holidays!?

If we could bring back holidays of the past with all the craziness.  But family all together! Need I say more!

Gotta run! Thank you for allowing me to vent.

A Bien tot!

I look forward to your comments.
