Friday odds and ends

Greetings, friends. I hope everyone had a good week! Wednesday evening, I had dinner with my friends Deb and Dave at PJ's and picked up the pumpkin bread for Thanksgiving dinner. 

The homemade pumpkin bread - delicious!

I also got a chance to wear my new holiday dress from "Plato's Closet" to dinner. They just opened up a store near me about a month ago. This dress was only $12.00.

A little pic of J.J. enjoying his new baby blanket! Thank you so much for sending me this pic Deb! :)


Today, I put away the rest of my fall decorations and began adorning my house with Yule and winter decor. I am not finished yet, but I did get to finish the Pittsburgh Steelers scarf as a gift for Aurora Skye's hubby ... I hope he likes it.

I had to cut out the diamond symbols as best I could by hand because I could not find anything else to use as a cut-out. I used colored felt and then hand sewed them on the scarf. I also used a new type of yarn called macaroon. It is a large skein with different color cakes all in one bundle. This was the closest thing I could get to the Steelers colors.

Tomorrow, I plan to finish up my decorating. Have a good weekend all.
