New for Spring!

New purse for spring!

I'll give you a beter idea of what is being made in the near feature.

I have a limited amount of banana fabric and most of the items have already sold to retailers.

There are a few bags left that are not spoken for, so , If you're interested, get your name in the pot early.

The bag will be represented on my Etsy site as a gorilla. Prepaid orders will be reserved for you.

This item is going to be too cute for words!

Before
the voices
of the Earth's
choirs were raised
in praise... there was
a silent night. Before the
strings of lights were wound
around the world, and tinsel
strung... there was a single star.
Before the wide eyed wonder of a
child on Christmas morn... Before
the gifts... there was a child, born in
Bethlehem, who showed the world
the greatest
gift of all is
LOVE

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Warmest wishes to one and all for
the happiest of holidays and a
prosperous new year.

Christmas Dinner

W.C. Fields once said, “I cook with wine. Sometimes I even add it to the food.”

Muddle headiness and laziness has lead me to spend the morning
learning about wines to serve with
Christmas dinner.
Christmas dinner being the semi-private dinner that
Ray and I host for just a few close friends.
The dinner is rarely on Christmas Day.
(On Christmas Day, we tend to goof off,
playing with the new toys that Santa brought!)

Christmas Dinner includes a mix of friends.
Most don't drink, but don't object to a bottle of wine
being served.
Since we have a group of wonderful, religious friends,
our parties don't usually include alcohol,
so our private dinner is one we look forward to all year.

I will offer more notes and recipes for our
special Christmas Dinner
as time allows -
and when I find the camera!
