and I got to deliver a long overdue wedding gift today. I made the couple one of my
"eyecatcher" granny square afghans. The bride really loved it.
My husband insists that I give these in person as they take a long time to make. I put a letter in it, in this case, a teal capital G.

hey all, I took your advice, got alittle rest and felt so much better! even made it to dinner at my neighbors. I made a pumpkin pie (my mom's recipe), pumpkin rolls and a new casserole: crunchy celery casserole. It was a hit and was really good. and I am not a celery fan.
had a good time and ate lots of pie. now that will make you feel better! beautiful weather in Tucson today-mid 70's and a spectular sunset.

I really feel like I have made some new good friends here. I so hope that we can all meet sometime.

I did make 10 Christmas stockings today and I heard from my friend Anita. her 30 are done.

I got to tell someone at dinner today about the HAE project and the start with moldy peach muffins.

So Ally, you will be getting a couple of more boxes. can't wait for the new count. We are getting there!

Well I'm a hugger so I'll hug everyone twice so Ally doesn't have to!! Happy Thanksgiving to all of you, I feel very blessed to have found you all and that Sue found the desire to start this project!
Ally Comment by Ally on November 26, 2009 at 11:00am
Dear Sue,
You can't be sick.
NO, I forbid it.

Stop the sewing...everyone here will pick up where you need us to.
ASK us for help, you crazy woman.

We've all waved to LLove, so let's make some broth and send the aroma to Sue.
I agree with DC...no mid-life crisis here at HAE...There is NO time for that!

So thankful for all of YOU. I'm not a hugger, but a hug to each of you.
