Winter Notes- Sunday, November 19th. Frost On the Lawn this morning. Open Wheel Race from Vegas.


 Pomegranate. Image, I think, from Grace.

So...frosty this morning...we recorded the open wheel racing in Vegas to watch this morning after breakfast.  Was pretty intense.....  Now we are waiting for Football and I am making pizza.  He says he likes to eat at noon.  I like to eat "whenever".....so there is that...

He is washing two loads of towels from his bathroom.... wants to know if I recall a local Barber Shop        I do not.

I had one of my grapefruit for breakfast...with the Sunday paper and my newest Gun and Garden Magazine.  Hunting Dogs.  I think I have one or two of them left and then I won't get this magazine anymore....in the beginning it had lovely essays and articles...even a recipe or two...but not anymore.  Though they did have a lovely assortment of Christmas jewelry (money clips) and leather goods. 

I sorted more of the "assorted" dresser stuff...Mostly paper goods, cards and Christmas stuff.  I found some "do it yourself" card making items...I need a glue stick and then I will have ten homemade cards.  They are actually meant for watercolor paints.  I had ambition at some point in time.

Speaking of ambition:  I did FIND the white linen with red cross stitch......a project started when my kids were still in high school and we were skiing (not me) in Switzerland.  I saw something like this in the guest house we were staying in and went into Town and bought linen and red embroidery thread and  copied the pattern from the cloth in the hall of the guest house. The owner saw what I was doing and told me she had made it and was just so moved that a guest would want to make one....it is still a lovely memory.....and I was happy to find the cloth...I am not sure of my eyesight for this project- with lots of thread counting....but I will give it my best..
