Here I am on a Sunday after a crazy Thanksgiving week. It all went well though thankfully! My sister came to MN to visit from SD. Her baby is getting so big and handsome. She also had her first pampered chef party yesterday and it was alot of fun, I found many new products that I could not live without in my kitchen, so many I had to start a wishlist, I think I will be keeping her in business for the next year.
For Thanksgiving I made pumpkin and pecan pie, and pumpkin cheesecake. I used the pumpkins that I prepared in Oct. I also made roasted sweet potatoes and brussels sprouts, both were pretty yummy. My husband made the turkey, smoked of course on his gigantic grill. I think it turned out delicious. I never liked turkey much until he started making it the last few years. It all turned out very well and everyone got along great, which is a blessing!
Another thing I got accomplished this week is my sewing nook. I never got anything done because I always had to put everything away as soon as I was done, and the whole process was such a hassel. So, I cleared room in our room for a table for my machine, and I have been sewing up a storm! I am finally getting somewhere on a very special quilt I've been working on for months. I am also making cloth pads that look fabulous now that they're coming together. I also can't wait to get started on some very special Christmas presents. I am happy as a lark right now. I plan on adding more wall shelves and cleaning up the cords a bit.
I also made a dog bed for my big Pom Cookie since she was always in here sleeping next to my bed. I just did the cut and tie on some fleece, it was so easy and she loves it. I've even caught some other Poms in it!
On that note I will leave you with a cute Pom picture:
