Hello!

October 30th, 2007

Well here I am. Writing my first blog post. Eek. I really am very apprehensive about this…I’ve never recorded my thoughts with the intention of anyone other than me ever reading them. But alas, here I am.

I’ve entered two of my creations into the Holiday Softie Awards, sponsored by Softies Central. Deadline is tomorrow at midnight & I am quite surprised I was able to submit them last night. Two days early? Me? Here they are:

Prudence

Meet sweet Prudence, all set to boogie in her holiday best. Snowflakes on her collar, red mary janes, & a bright holly berry atop her head, she’s waiting for the Jingle Bell Rock!
I learned a few lessons in construction sequencing from her.

Bernerd

Meet Bernerd the toy soldier. He is very delighted to make your acquaintance. Bernerd prides himself on keeping a clean crisp suit. His gold buttons are always polished & sparkling, his white sash always glowing. Aside from being a fine ol’ chap, Bernerd is really one strapping toy soldier.
I just imagine him as a proud British bloke. I think he enjoys his time off duty drinking Stella Artois & eating crumpets. All in moderation of course.

I just had my first Stella this weekend…for some reason I had been anticipating that for some time now. I enjoyed it, although I have yet to get through a full bottle of beer. Maybe it’s not my drink of choice. My husband Anthony & I have decided we will find ourselves a favorite wine. It’s a quest we haven’t started yet, but Thanksgiving may introduce us to some new tastes.

Hmmm, I didn’t anticipate that my first post would delve into alcohol but perhaps we should play on this…I am lifting my imaginary glass filled to the brim with that delicious wine I know we will find & toasting you a warm fall welcome. Thank you for visiting my humble little place, & please come back often.

I thought this was a party...LET’S DANCE!
