What R you doing today?

[sour_grapes]

Well, the good news is that at dinner I finished three bottles of wine.

The bad news was that each bottle had less than half a glass before I started!

Also, I racked my Red Mountain Cab out of secondary into clearing. It is YUMMY even now. I am really looking forward to this one!

 

[reefman]

it was a miserable rainy day today, so I made Applesauce!

 

[ffemt128]

The big storm they were predicting for the Pittsburgh Area was a bust. Glad I didn't rush out for toilet paper and milk to prepare for it. Woke up this ame expecting 3-5 inches of snow and the sidewalks weren't even icy since it was above freezing. I know some areas north of the Burgh got hit.

Me, I'm happy I get to spend an extra 2 hours with my daughter thanks to the school district's pre-mature delay announcement.

Going to start preparations for tomorrow's feast this afternoon...

James: it's a really thick blanket/afghan Shelley: what's under the blanket? Now I want to know! Lol

It's this under the blanket.

 

[ShelleyDickison]

if thats a hand made quilt, its beautiful....

I would love to take credit for the quilt but it was a gift from my Mother in law.

 

[Fabiola]

After receiving inspiration last night, I knitted this today using broomsticks as knitting needles.

It was a great arm workout; and should be a nice, cuddly blanket for my niece

WOW!! you are going to have to teach me how to use those broomsticks, very nice!!!
