I am a country housewife married to a wonderful husband for 30+ years. We enjoy traveling and seeing the world. In my 'spare' time, I make designer handbags. Most are one of a kind with some being very limited editions. I collect my fabrics, buttons, flowers, and other decorations in my travels around the world. I'm am also an afficionado of Afternoon Tea, having catered for almost 40 years and written 2 cookbooks and several articles on the subject.
After many years sabatical, I have return to creating beaded jewelry. Little did I know how much I had missed doing this - nor did I realize how bad my eyesight has become!
Last, but not least, I am a member of Bethel Church of Christ between Dunlap and Pikeville, TN.
Christmas at our house is going to be a bit lazy this year. There are a few more gifts to be embroidered and lots left to be wrapped. A few more delightful dinner parties to attend and then there's just the three of us enjoying the fire and the tree. Maybe a few more games to play this year? And fondue for a quiet New Year's Eve. Ah, this is the very best part of the holidays!
Merry Christmas! Ruth Ann, The Bag Lady http://www.raggbaggs.com
