Hi Ruth,

-> -> So your sister does it too? (G)

->  RH> Before she ever had her one kid.(LOL)

-> Practicing on her sister?

 RH> How did you guess?

Didn't take much detective work.

->  RH> It's still not my thing.  OTOH I did get an African dress cut up
 RH> for fabric tonight.  Red, blue and yellow. Bright isn't the word,
 but oddly I had another piece of the same fabric and made some random
 squares out of it, but could never finish them off into a quilt.  Now
 I can.

-> That'll be an interesting one. Interesting, how you got the same fabric
-> twice.

 RH> It surprised me. That's never happened before.

Other than my QoV quilt, I've not done any sewing since we got home. Did
prewash a piece for a shirt for Santa; I'll probably cut it out on
Wednesday and start putting it together. Going to QoV tomorrow and then
to see The Piano Guys in the pm.

->  RH> Not my style or color - yellow with embroidred flowers.  It's
 RH> pretty me by any stretch.  I have plenty of other flannel too, but
 no pure white.

-> Sounds like it might go into a baby quilt. I'll be making a trip to
-> JoAnn's for the white flannel closer to the time I need it.

 RH> Sounds like a plan.  I tend to use the craziest colors available when
 RH> making
 RH> little kid quilts.  For boys I sometimes go for things that won't get
 RH> them ragged on by playmates when they're older.

Sharks, dinosaurs, construction equipment...............

->  RH> I did however use up some blue frosting with sparkles that I had

-> Turn your tongue blue frosting? Think Michael would like it?

 RH> It didn't taste like much; it was just blue.

About the norm for that kind of stuff.


->  RH> sitting in the fridge.  It was left over from my niece's birthday,
->  RH> commercial stuff that can't spoil. It was Halloween and you have to
->  RH> have at least one piece of weird-looking food on Halloween. Blue
->  RH> sparkles worked fine.

-> Sounds logical. One of the other ladies brought in some orange frosted
-> cookies to our QoV group meeting on Tuesday. Not quite as garish as blue
-> sparkles but still pretty wild.

 RH> Not even close.  It was that or green eyeballs!

Didn't see any of them but wouldn't have been too hard to make some up.


->  RH> Yeah well.  Limburger is a little pungent; I don't want to think
 RH> about what it would smell like hot.  Durian I can deal with.

-> I just used those two as the strongest food smells I could come up with
-> and see what the reaction would be.

 RH> Overaged fish works well too; my cats like smelly fish even if it
 RH> doesn't taste like anything.

Cats go for anything fish related. Should ave thought of it as an
analogy but the fruit & cheese one produced the desired effect.

-> -> Hopefully. He seems to be doing a lot better, even without the brace
-> -> now. He's hoping he can get the go ahead to wear it even less than he
-> -> does now.

->  RH> It's got to be driving him nuts, provided the Army didn't do that
->  RH> already.

-> He's sorta nuts but not as far gone as I am. He's more left brain
-> oriented so doesn't have the genes for far out nuts.

 RH> Aww. His loss.

No, actually between his left brain, my right, we work well together.
Better than having 2 left or 2 right brains.


->  RH> Once I don't have any free food coupons hanging around for other
->  RH> places.

-> I think I've seen TR coupons from time to time. Check on line, might get
-> some there. They are worth the time and money.

 RH> I may have to look.  All I ever see here is Ruby Tuesday or Olive
 RH> Garden. Ecch.

TR has both of them beat, hands down.

-> -> True, and some of it was weird.

->  RH> They stole the bacon and the pepperoni?(LOL)

-> Yes, and the fake but not the real pearls.

 RH> The fakes were bigger and flashier.  And crooks are dumb.

They did the same with the real/fake rubies. Fake had more bling.
Somebody got a big surprise.

-> Vidalia type or regular? The former seem to go bad faster.

 RH> Regular.  Vidalias go into the fridge here.

I usually keep both at room temperature unless it's extemely hot inside.
We try to keep the AC set in the mid/uppr 70s but the house will warm up
more than that in really hot weather.

Catch you later,
