A Me Day

This title was suggested by a friend, Deb P., as the title I should have inserted as yesterday's blog title.  Since today was also a me day, I decided to use it today.

I drive my mother crazy.  Mom is an early riser and I like to sleep in.  This morning we were going to Michaels and then Memories on Main Street and when I asked what time she replied, "When you get up".  That was her first mistake . . .

We changed our plans and decided to just hang out at the LSS (local scrapbooking store for all you non-scrapbookers).  We'll go to Michael's on Saturday when the new sales and new coupons start.

Friend, Deb S., just started working part time at Memories on Main Street in Lambeth and since we weren't able to harass her on her first day of work, we decided to really be annoying on her second day.  Although I don't think we really did annoy her.  And it was nice to run into a couple of friends there.  Charlotte even showed up to crop later in the afternoon.  The crop space is quite lovely and I was able to accomplish 6 layouts and nearly finished 2 more.  It could become a bad habit to pop in there.

I didn't photograph my layouts yet, so I will share them with you another day.  But I did keep my New Year's resolution about photos . . . so here is Debbie S. . . .


I love her sweater . . . may have to steal it.

Well, I'm scratching my head coming up with ideas of interesting things to do with the grandsons tomorrow (PA Day).  Here are my ideas so far:  Military Museum, Art Gallery, Library, new Used Book Store, a walking tour of downtown . . . maybe we'll just hop on a bus and tour the city . . . the sky is the limit (as long as it is on a major bus route . . . LOL).

According to the Dreaded To Do List today is December 11.

Good night everyone.  Enjoy your Friday.

A Taste of Canada ~ Fiddleheads

I do enjoy fiddleheads.  They have a green bean-y, asparagus-like, pea-ish taste and they are just fun to look at. From Chateline Magazine: HOW-TO It’s Almost Fiddlehead Season! Here’s How To Cook This Springtime Veggie Properly Fiddleheads are a Canadian delicacy, but undercooking them can lead to food poisoning by Amy Grief  Updated Apr 9, 2019 Fiddlehead season is short, so when you see the adorable green curlicues at your grocery store or farmers’ market, buy them while you can. Before chowing down on these little springtime delicacies, there’s a few things you should know first since fiddleheads can cause food poisoning if they’re not cooked properly. What are fiddleheads? These tightly curled coils are ostrich fern fronds. They start appearing in late April and early May in Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick and are usually found in forests, marshes and by rivers and streams.

Week #2 Challenge: Paper . . . and I mean ALL of your paper.

Annual Organization Challenge Week #2   How did you make out with last week's challenge? Did you find your work table? Here's this week's challenge: Your challenge this week is to  S.P.A.C.E.  your paper - - and I mean ALL of your paper: cardstock, patterned paper, specialty papers, and all those SCRAPS! SORT:  Bring all of your paper to one area. Sort it all into piles: KEEP, SELL, DONATE, TRASH PURGE:  bag up, and assign a price to paper bundles that you want to SELL at a garage sale or online, and put the bags in the garage sale box.
