Buzy Beehiving.

I'm kinda pooped. Have a ways to go though...

C isn't doing well. How could I have known 19 years ago that in 19 short years I'd be married to such an old miserable fellow? There isn't anything I can do for him. He is getting his hip resurfaced on the 18th of December. In the meantime...

His bouts with extreme misery usually coincide with my much anticipated, look forward to, well prepared for, kinda costly events... This week is no exception. Tomorrow is the Beehive Bazaar!

I might post some pics of what I've been beehiving. Probably won't. Go see what is cooking at the Bazaar Thursday night, Friday and Saturday.

Here is the spin room gnome, dressed as a turkey, for Thanksgiving. The waddle is paper clay with red glitter hot glue running down it. He is dressed in the traditional paper bag turkey garb of the holiday.

M is for the Mayflower.

N drew this in a fit of concentration while at dinner at a friend's house on Monday. He said he wanted to draw and he meant it. Around here we all have that urge sometimes, rarely getting the chance to act on it. I'm so glad that we had the huge paper for him and the markers out. After he finished several drawings he told us all of the details. He also told us about friendship.

Last night he played with his beloved cousins for several hours. He was soooo happy. Thanks P & M for letting him play while C figured out wheat storage. Sweetie-pie M had a great time too! :)

I love the Thanksgiving holiday. The idea, the significance, the American-ness (in the very best sense of that word) of it.

Today our menu includes: Leek stuffing made by K, mashed potatoes by N & J, turkey (shaped) carrot cake :) by C, messes made by M, place cards made by S, pies made by DFM & SRM, the turkey cooked forever by H...

Hope you are having a great day!
