back to normal

I hope your Thanksgiving was a good one!...I enjoyed family home from

work and school for the week,

a wonderful turkey dinner with all the fixings,

and a whole pumpkin pie all to myself {not all in one sitting,

I promise!}

And my 'black Friday' shopping consisted of a trip

to the feed store for chicken feed and shavings

where thankfully there were no mobs of people

looking for a deal :)

I took some time out to do a bit of crafting and made a pair

of earrings using found beach glass { from Lake Ontario } and

some vintage mother of pearl beads.

Using a tiny diamond drill bit was a challenge

and a little frustrating at times,

but after many broken pieces of glass, persistance won out!

This week life is settling back to normal routines

and simple pleasures...tea with orange pecan scones

and a new tote bag in progress.

Do you know Advent starts this Sunday?
