I Like Thursday # 479 making turkeys in elementary school, dogs in dresses, and funnies

welcome to this week's list of likes.... interrupted by some dislikes... ahem...

my computer, with no warning, failed. Completely. Totally. now I'm sort of using dh's computer and updated operating system which I find unintelligible. I. Hate. most. Technology and I'll go ahead and throw my Iphone in there with that.

I will do my best to list some things, but can't promise pictures, (grrrrrrrr)

For fun watch this

Fine Dining

I had egg whites to use up, so I mixed them with cream, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon cardamom, soaked the stale sour dough slices, fried them in butter, and voila!

the best French toast I've made... we had enough to have all week too

Highlight of my week was meeting this cutie! A 6 month old maltese poodle.... in a cute sundress!

she took one look at me, hopped up on her back legs and wiggled her front legs in the air at me. Loved talking to her mom who also grew up in Florida! She spent, wait for it, $4000 for this pup.

I want one too!!! with lots of dresses!

Saw this heart shaped leaf on that same walk.... now I need a dog of my own again

I have begun quilting this now.... it's a joy to work on

our conversation starter this week is:

Do you remember making construction paper turkeys in elementary school? using your own hand? coloring them in or pasting on cut out colored feathers? taking them home and having a parent put them up in the house?

I loved making hand turkeys! I didn't like using those fat crayons they gave kids at school though, no points on them! We would all sit at one table and share the broken crayons!

From this exercise, I learned how to work in a group, follow directions, use colors, then use scissors to cut out the turkey or feathers... Loved it, but pretty sure my mother threw it away quickly
