Monday's Big Question

I dug the first of the new potatoes today. 

                                       

What are the potatoes thinking?

Thanksgiving Weekend

Image
 We have a long holiday weekend in the US for Thanksgiving, Not being the sort of people that enjoy shopping as a contact sport, we stay away from the crowds and enjoy the holiday at home, or at one of our many beautiful parks. When Danny was small, I'd set up the artificial Christmas tree and let him spend Thanksgiving day decorating it. That worked to keep him busy, and out of my way as I prepared the evening meal. It  became a family tradition to put up the tree and decorations on Thanksgiving day, and this year was no exception. We had a rather simple meal, went for a long walk, and enjoyed all of Danny's hard work decorating the house. I never enjoyed Thanksgiving until all the relatives either died, or moved far away. I certainly love it now! I know that sounds heartless-just like my family were. I don't miss being insulted, bullied, and treated like shit generally. Anyway, we had a lovely day, and now the house is decorated without my lifting a finger. I treated my...

January, the Last

Image
Be My Valentine. I decorated the front door. No, I'm not letting the shark thing go. In other news, I've been out and about wearing fab clothes to do my damnedest getting through January. Did the month seem extra long to you? I have a few of these 70's appliqued and embroidered sweaters by Cyn-Les. They're fun, if a bit too youthful for me but eh, whatever. Here's the other giraffe sweater I last wore on blog in 2014  Cheeky giraffe! Anyway, they're fun sweaters except for the one my parents bought me as a kid that said, "Hug Me." I didn't hang on to that Cyn-Les sweater.

Best Of-Halloween Costumes Edition

Image
As Halloween approaches I thought it might be fun to take a trip down memory lane. The beatnik costume was the result of us being broke, and Danny being too young to care about a costume. The bongo drums are made from empty Neocate containers. Since the stuff was costing us more than caviar (and although medically needed, wasn't covered by insurance) I wanted to get my money out of it by re-using the canisters. Hey kid, quit teething on my City Lights editions. Why don't you ask my log? When I needed them to custom cut the log for me at the garden centre I had to explain the Log Lady to a kid that never saw Twin Peaks. Mostly, he just looked at me like I was mad. The waiter from The Meaning of Life. That's some very expensive fake vomit in the bucket. Still haven't thought of anything else to do with it. I'm sure even Mother Goose wanted to throttle that bloody fowl once in a while. The Penguin and Lola Lasagne Frank the Combine from Cars. Gorgon Slayer! I had so mu...
