...remember back when I 'played' Mrs. Santa for the community breakfast......well...I mentioned to the lady taking the photos at the event...that I had actually played Mrs. Santa before...when I was in high school...at the Church where the Man and I were married...
...and when she sent me those photos that you've already seen...she asked me to send her some photos of me as a teenaged Mrs. Santa...and I finally searched through my old high school scrapbook and found a few photos of that event... ...I'm really not at all sure where the colourful red skirt came from...maybe Mom remembers...maybe it was Nanny's...the wig was for sure...also unsure about whose glasses I'm wearing... ...I think they gave me the Santa hat when I got there...and I put on red lipstick and smudged some on my cheeks as well... ...and I stuffed a bed pillow around my waist...it was a lot of fun...

...and while I was looking for those photos...I came across this one...and took it out because it looked rather ragged and dog-eared... ...and with good reason...it must have been in my Daddy's wallet...and he must have needed a piece of paper for directions when he was driving his truck...I thought it was pretty neat...and texted the image to Mom...3
...we're still enjoying the sweet potatoes we were given earlier...look at the size of this one...it's huge...4
...and these are a couple of my favorite little stocking stuffers from Christmas...that I don't think you've seen......and I can't share what I'm embroidering right now...but I will...
...I had been wanting a pair of stork scissors for my embroidery basket for a while...and the Man thoughtfully got me a nice pair of silver ones for Christmas...

...and also in my stocking was this sweet little antique pastry wheel...so I'm on the lookout for recipes where I can use it......what are your favorite things this Friday?...
~Have a lovely day!
