Still in my jammies

Merry Christmas, friends! The presents are opened, the families have been Skyped, the standing rib roast is being prepared, the potatoes and brussels have been cut and peeled, and I am still in my jammies. Life is good.

I need a recipe for grapefruit dressing... maybe I'll make one up. (Oh, blogging! How indulgent writing out my every thought!)

Velvet

Velvet isn't very fashionable at the moment. And I'm not sure why. It's soft, luxurious, and begs to be touched.

And you know what? I'm wearing it today. I can rock it and it will be back in fashion next year.

Happy Holidays! Wear something that feels lovely on your skin!

Look at this fabulous JPG velvet "jacket"!

Feelin’ It

I think I am going to give blogging another try. I was into it for a while there. Sharing every little creation, gabbing about moving and being ever so insightful. I guess I was feeling a little sorry for myself. That I had no audience. That no one wanted to see my crappy homemade valentines. Now I am throwing my fragile ego to the wind! I’m back… we’ll see how long it lasts. (And that, my dear friends, is butter pecan shortbread.)

An Apron Story

My MIL gave me this simple cut, sew and go apron for Christmas. Finally got around to doing it. Pretty cute! Aprons are fun. I should dig up my vintage apron collection. I have some adorable ones to share!

Dog Bite

I was taking a walk last Sunday morning and was bit by a crazed dog. He was off his leash and his owners were trying to get control of him. He was scared and angry. The frantic guy made a beeline to me, sat beside me briefly, jumped up and bit my arm and then bit me on the behind. That is a picture of my buttbite. It was a pretty scary experience. I'm just happy I didn't have my baby in her stroller... it might have been her. Phew.
