my computer is back!



My stumped repair man wasn't as stumped as I thought. Reed to the rescue; it was just a matter of downloading something (at someone else's computer obviously) and then installing it; I think. While my husband was running around trying to fix our problem I was sitting next to my son in the library, trying to keep my eyes open, while he researched and worked on his persuasive speech for school. Consequently I'm not sure what actually happened.
Today is Sam's club party sampler. I need a few things and I'm planning on trying a few of their party foods; who knows someday I'll have another party to give.

I'm also committed to baking an apple pie for Andrew. I made the crust yesterday; it was a very strange recipe using a tiny bit of baking powder and vinegar for part of the water and butter and cream cheese instead of butter and shortening.

Then I have my exchange to finish....

Lets not forget that I need to fold more fabric...

And I NEED to make one of these snowmen.

I might see you at Sam's today -- didn't know it was party sampler day too. Our computer crashed recently too, only we weren't so lucky. We had to buy a new hard drive, and Carl had to re-install everything. Glad yours is up and running. Have a happy thanksgiving!

LOVE those snowmen, but how are you going to stop after one? They seem to beg for a crowd.

I'm one step closer to making those snowmen than you. I have been buying glass salt shakers to store (get this) my pearl beads in that are waiting for me to make more icecicles with. So all I have to do is decorate the outsides and make heads. I'm going to try that paper mache out of white paper. i do not have any vintage frosting tips though. lynn
