• Nov. 12, 2005 - The little red sweater

Posted in Felt Friday




As you can see, the felt hubby and wife were out on a date last night and were unavailable for their weekly pose.  You will have to forgive them but they had a fabulous time.  The eating place was Monti's La Casa Vieja on Mill Avenue in Tempe.  You would think from the name that the place was Mexican food...we did...but we came to find out that they are famous for their steaks.  Tempe is a great place to visit if you ever find yourself in Arizona.  Over the years they have added a lake with paddleboats and a beautiful park where you can ride bikes or experience the Lobster Fest this weekend!  However, the crowd is young as it is a college town...not that my hubby and I aren't young, but it was rather odd when I heard myself say "these kids" as I described the street life. 


The steak was great!  However, red meat and dairy appear to have it out for the me the last few years and so I eat them rarely.  I am not sure if I am missing an enzyme or what but digestion of these foods is NO FUN!


However, first, we stopped into Ross to try and find one of those little shrug sweaters to go over my spaghetti strap dress since all I had was a business suit jacket from my corporate America days.  We found a cute little red one that complimented the red in the flowers of the dress.  Here's a better look at the details...it is so cute!

 

 


I can't believe no one has posted any Thanksgiving recipes!  I was really looking forward to hearing from everyone and I was sure that nearly everyone had a favorite dish for the holidays.   I am still looking for the best sweet potatoes and marshmallows recipe...please share!!

She was sooooo scruptious last night in her pretty dress and red shrug! I just LOVE date nights.

What was so funny about the steak was when she ordered it, my jaw about hit the floor. I said, "You're getting a ribeye?!?!" in disbelief. I must say, it was one of the best steaks I've had.

I love you, honey!

I realized that my head looked awfully round...and then noticed that I put my head on sideways! LOL Now that I have my head on straight I am ready for a re-do picture but the lighting is horrible and so I will do it tomorrow.

How do you get your pieces to stick together? I just recently saw a great Christmas countdown felt thing. I want to make it for my kids.

I was going to ask about Thanksgiving food today ;o)

• Nov. 14, 2005 - Fancy Felt!

Okay, I admit it was kinda weird to just see a picture of your chest online, but it really does show off how coordinated your girly getup was. One would naturally assume that it came as a set, as opposed to two individual pieces. Don't you just love those awesome, accidental findings in life? God is so good, even in the little stuff. :-)

What a cute felt family you have, by the way! Great depictions of the four of you -- although I have to say I like the real thing the best. Okay, I'm off to read your C.S. Lewis Sundays post. Hope tae hear from you soon!

Your best mate,

About Me

Having just embarked on the homeschooling adventure this year, I have quickly come to realize that I am nothing more than my weblog title implies: a student with unlimited chalkboard privileges. I love the learning process and am so blessed to be given the opportunity to serve my children through homeschooling.

What Do You Think?

I began homeschooling because:
the school system is overcrowded, underpaid, and therefore ineffective for my child.
God told me to.
my child did not want to go to school as a result of social issues.
my child has special needs and the school system did not have adequate programs in place to address them.
(Added my own comment under your post titled "Homeschooling: the right choice or simply exercising the right to choose?")
