I Have Had NOTHING to Say

I've granted my husband's 20-year old dream....

I have actually been pretty busy.

I've visited a few blogs and even let a few comments. I've worked all week, got my hair trimmed and my nails done. I've prepared dinner every night, making things like pot roast


mac & cheese, a delicious (if I do say so myself) meatloaf, which I turned into chili midweek.


I took these scraps

and turned them into a handbag! If you read my quilting blog, you already know this. I have posted a few times there this week.

I even invented a new cocktail:

It's a mocha-tini, made with coffee flavored Vodka, Bailey's Irish Creme, and coffee. I used a cocoa mix to rim the edge, giving it just a hint of sugary chocolate flavor. I suppose someone else made this before me, but I have never seen it before, so I am claiming it as my invention, until proven otherwise.

I told you a while ago that I was going to start Christmas decorating, but so far I have done nothing but paint the branches silver. I just am not in the mood. Maybe this weekend..........once I get all the housework done. I have been slacking off. I just came from DH's "den" - really just a spare bedroom with a desk and some bookshelves. The bookshelves are full of dust. It's quite disgusting.

I think he should dust those shelves more often!
