One of my favorite Christmas memories - and I have several, was in Chicago where we would travel on the 22nd every year to the grandparents' apartment - that little apartment was not made for 3 young girls to be cooped up - being Chicago - we really couldn't go out and play either. I was 11, about to turn 12.
My Grandmother that year, had already brought home from the Ben Franklin Store, all the supplies to teach me how to embroider and a pair of pillowcases as my first project. (she worked at that Ben Franklin Store until she turned 77) They weren't the best, but I finished them before we left a week later on my birthday. I gave Gram the pillowcases and she gave me a huge box of needles, floss, hoops, and more projects as a birthday present. And it wasn't lumped in as a Merry Christmas/Happy Birthday present as so many were at that time. |

Thank you princess....
I need to keep hold of that thing - a wandering mind is a terrible thing to lose... No news on mom yet - 45 more minutes and I'll be worried though - time for some air - bbl |

well - since you put it that way princess - either will do!
we could also toss in the Vikings' Jared Allen too - or um, his jersey...game worn... More caffeine please! I obviously have not had enough to start my day since my mind has been left wandering on its own - and that's dangerous you know - |
