progress on multiple fronts




Okay, so I got a lot done today. I cut all the strips of cloth I will need to finish my stripey quilt. I also sewed a bunch of the segments together but I ran out of thread. You can see the end of my spool hanging sadly. So, for today the limiting reactant was the thread. I could go get more but then I would have to leave the house, and I'd already decided against it.




My apartment also smells like soup as the turkey stock has been simmering for a few hours. It is not appetizing to look at. Hopefully the soup pictures will be more appealing.

less family, more soup

My family, although mostly wonderful, has gone back to their respective homes and I am left with turkey left overs and a blessedly empty apartment. It is so quiet and still tht I can here the silly dog snoring on the couch and neighbors stomping around below me. My agenda for today is as follows:
1. walk dog
2. make turkey stock
3. work on quilt project
4. make soup from turkey stock
5. watch Ironman, there may be popcorn involved

I plan on posting pictures and the turkey soup recipe. We'll see how that goes.
