Happy Thanksgiving

Honey, aka Bob, and I wish all of you a safe, warm and fulfilled Thanksgiving. We take so many things for granted and have so much. Yet we aren't satisfied. I just watched a couple of videos from http://morningswithbrant.com and his trip to Afghanistan with Cure International. It made me really think and to realize I should be satisfied and Happy. Take a moment to watch. You can view them on youtube or facebook or on his link. This is where the 200 hats went and you can see how much good they did.

So now that we are properly thankful, let's move on to other things. Like, how big is your turkey? We provide the turkey and my sister-in-law cooks it. She likes to cook. She was a bit surprised when we told her 20lbs. I have to 'rest up' for our Pay It Forward weekend - lol! But I do make several side dishes. And knit, knit, knit. It's probably the only time I will get for several days.

Today we are starting to decorate the shop. I hate to start before Thanksgiving but there isn't time otherwise. So here goes. La, la, la,la....... Don't get me wrong. I love Christmas - decorations, music, gifts, sweets and all the hoopla. but I think we overlook Thanksgiving. Our Canadian relatives made Thanksgiving in October. then we could have some time to enjoy.

I want also to give a big shout out to SWTC, Jojoland, Knit One, Crochet Too, Claudia Hand Paints and Gloves in a Bottle for their door prizes. We have received some awesome prizes. Makes me wish I was on the other side of the counter. Thanks to all for being so generous. I know my knitters/crocheters will be thrilled.

So, come on out on Friday from 8AM to 8PM or Saturday from 10AM to 4 PM and help the Food Bank too.
