Monday musings


Can it really be mid-November????   Remember when we were children, and time seemed to just crawl at a snail's pace until Christmas?  My sister emailed me with some instructions for Thanksgiving last week, and said ...see ya in 2 weeks!  I hit the panic button, thinking my time is running out on all the things I want to accomplish...guess I need to remove a few things from the list!
Today, I plan to quilt my Secret Santa gift so that I can cross that off the list.  It has to be in the mail in 2 weeks, and I will be traveling for Thanksgiving, so today is the day!  I love Secret Santa projects!
Friday night, I went to my friend's Stampin' Up crop...we made 20 Christmas cards!  It was loads of fun and so nice to have them made.  Hoping I will have time to make a few more, as I bought some new ink and stamps.
Since we will be out of town for Thanksgiving, my children and grandkids, and other family members are coming on Saturday for our non-traditional Thanksgiving dinner.  The kids requested Mexican food, so that is what we will have!  Anyone have any favorite recipes for Mexican dishes? 
Guess I better get off the computer, and get busy at the sewing machine! 
What a great way to spend my day off!

Cute cards! Always fun to make and create with your friends.

Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving me your sweet message.

Thanksgiving blessings to you and your family and I think I just might have a recipe for you for your non-traditional meal!

Hugs, Carolyn

Cute cards!

I love all Mexican food. What times dinner? lol!

You know I was leaving a comment on someone's blog & I believe I wished her an early 'Merry Christmas!'. I guess I was a little excited about Christmas coming...go figure! Happy Thanksgiving!
