Went out today to purchase a couple
of storage items to finish packing away Christmas. The creche' doesn't fit
anywhere so got a tree storage bag and will put a couple of other big items in
with it. Also got a wreath box. Was prompted to put all away early as the
house cleaner came yesterday. Usually wait until NY Day but this is a season of
changes. The cleaner said Asians believe we should clean out our homes to rid
them of bad luck and to make room for good luck. Nice thought, isn't
it?
A few 'me' items found their way
into my shopping cart. Now have a bamboo steamer for healthier cooking with
brightly colored potholders, cutting mats, rubber spatulas and a cast iron
skillet. Needed an oven proof skillet last week when making a fritata so now have one. Love the new cutting mats that don't
slide and go in the dishwasher. Aqua and red spatulas will be easy to find.
Also got a shelf with 3 racks for cookbooks. Mine are always out of sight and
reach...really, in the very top cupboard and behind the china.
After a few chapters in a new Jodi
Piccoult book, will try the firm new pillow.
Funny how we wait to purchase necessary things until they are screaming to be
replaced. No such hesitation in the quilt shop.... Fireworks are already
going off. So glad the cats don't mind them. Neighborhood dogs do; can hear
them already.
Am posting a pic of Molly and Laura
(grand daughters, an engineer and a doctor of physical therapy) holding the wall
hangings I made for them.
Blessings,
MaryJo
