Neighborhood that is. Over the weekend one of our neighbors hosted a chili cook off. Eight years ago the same family hosted a similar get together but our numbers have drastically changed in that time period. The majority of the kids are either gone off to college or working now…although we have added to the adult total with new families.
My white turkey chili was not the winner but I’m not at all sad. It was a fun day!
A couple days previous to the party I returned a scoring plate that I had borrowed form my crafty next door neighbor. One of these days I actually finish the card I started using the board. Anyway…I never come away empty handed from her house. She has a vast network of folk that are always looking out for each other and trading this and that.
She had a huge bag of stamps for me to look through, bottle caps from a former co-worker that saves them for me and some tea her DIL didn’t want. Look at the awesome stamps! Can’t wait to play in an art journal with them. The Passion tea by Tazo is a favorite of mine. The Calm I’ll likely use for tea dyeing as I don’t care for chamomile but I do enjoy lemon!!
I’ve also been working on a couple…well, three, oh maybe four projects over the past couple of days. As soon as they come together I’ll be sure to share. To my T Tuesday gals…sorry I never made it around last week…Tuesday got away from me with numerous things including these….
Mini-me’s first season of competitive volleyball is done with the exception of the end of season banquet. Choir concert season has just begun for J. The concert was wonderful. Did I mention they will be traveling to Manhattan in the spring to sing at Carnegie Hall!?! So excited for them.
Today’s schedule has yet to be determined for me. It’s kind of nice to have a fairly blank slate for a change.
What are you doing today?
