A good time was had by all!



We had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We traditionally take a family pic every year. This year was no different. However, for some reason we could not all seem to take a good pic at the same time! :)

I made pumpkin pie with a homemade crust for the first time ever! I am not a fan of pumpkin pie. I love pumpkin bread, pumpkin bars, pumpkin spice custard ;), pumpkin smoothie... but not pumpkin pie! I think they turned out great though!

I hit some of the Black Friday sales and was home by 830 yesterday! :) Awesomeness!

I finally got around to sewing a new cover for my camera strap. The old one was kind of grubby and not my best sewing ever.

Old vs. New

I love how my new cover turned out! I'm thinking of making one to giveaway...

I love fabric, but I'm a lazy seamstress, so if a project is quick and easy like the strap cover, I'm all over it! I've been wanting to make a quilt for years. So far I have purchased the fabric and cut it into strips! Progress, right? :)

Not much running going on here. I've been feeling lazy and homebodyish. And yes, my treadmill is in my basement. Shush you. Tomorrow. Tomorrow. Tomorrow!

    I love pumpkin pie only if it's covered in massive whipped cream...and come on, that's just way too many calories and I could never do that (hahahah. I ate about 3 slices). I do love all that other pumpkin stuff, too!!

    Thanks for doing the blog gift exchange - will be fun. I hope. :) Can you email me your mailing address so I can give it to the person who gets your name? I won't post on the blog, only your blog buddy gets it.

    Thanks!! Have a great week - and get on that treadmill, girl!!! :)

COMMENTS CLOSED!!! I'll be back later with a new post to share the winners :) Thanks to all who entered!! ONE WORLD-ONE HEART I'm proud to announce my One world-One heart giveaway!! This is my first year and I think it's way cool! A Whimsical Bohemian is the hostess for this amazing event and I "pirated" the follwing paragraph of info about the event from her: "The original idea behind this giveaway event was to bring bloggers together from around the world who may never ordinarily meet. It closes the gap of the blog community and enables us to interact, discover new and wonderful people, and in the process possibly win a prize or many prizes along the way. 2007 had roughly 85-90 participants and many connections were made because of it......friendships that are still going strong.We had a strong showing the first year for sure, and then in 2008 we had just about tripled that number.This is more than wanting to win something.......that is only the means.....

Happy 4th! and... a Giveaway!

I hope everyone had a great holiday! The pic above is of our local fireworks, which we are lucky enough to be able to see from our house :) We had my family over today for a cookout. Steak and chicken on the grill. Yum!!! I chose the chicken. Weird right. I LOVE steak! However, I had two cupcakes yesterday that my daughter made and decorated red, white and blue for a party, so I felt like I'd indulged enough! I love cooking for people. I think I should have more parties :) I ran yesterday for the first time in a long time. I decided to try out the high school track made out of recycled tires. My hip (long story) was sore, but bearable. I started over with Week 5 of the Couch to 5K training program. Figured it was best not to rush it and injure myself again. I had enough left at the end to run the bleacher stairs for 3 minutes!! (My quads were screaming, but it felt oh so good ;) You can't really tell in the pic, but my face was sooo red! I hate that I get this red. My middle d...
