Webster Needs a Bigger Stocking

I walked into the living room this morning and saw Webster examining the stockings. I must see if I can find a bigger one for him in the coming year. I think he's feeling cheated, don't you?

Make Do and Mend

Love this.

I grew up sewing and still keep my machine set up all the time for quick mending. I've never owned anything but a Singer. We always had a black one.

Vintage Beatrix Potter Tom Kitten Doll

When I came home from a garage sale recently, Webster wanted this wonderful Tom Kitten doll in the worst way. He does a funny little bite, bite, bite thing with his teeth when he adores something and wants to de-flea it. He was heartbroken when he found out Tabitha (our cat) was the recipient of the toy of his dreams after he had covered it with love bites. So far, he hasn't tried to steal it from her. She loves Tom who is beautifully dressed in a blue velvet outfit with his name embroidered on the jacket. He's in great shape and has always been well cared for. I don't think I've ever seen another, have you?

"If you search for happiness..."

This is so true. We often find what we are searching for was there all along.

Office Christmas Party

hristmas party at the real estate office today was fun. Everyone brought a homemade dish and the food was delicious. I am always amazed at how little people eat. Do they reserve the times at home for wolfing food down? Everyone ate like a bird. Maybe it was the hour. Two in the afternoon is a little late for lunch and way too early for dinner. Several people tried to eat enough to be able to skip dinner. But they didn't even put a dent in all that food and most of it was taken home by the people who brought it. This was not a problem at the open wine bar however. People weren't at all shy in that department. Last year we didn't have a party. Instead we contributed to a local food pantry. I am still making a large contribution there myself because this is such a rough time of year for a lot of people. I scanned the capital letter "C" from one of my antiquarian books. Isn't it beautiful? Rosemary
