Weird science
I got a new cell phone for Christmas and downloaded a new ringtone- the U of U fight song. Suddenly I am craving a hotdog...hmm...

What's wrong with this picture?
The Friday before Christmas, before the BIG storms, I saw a 4-car accident in this same place due to drifting, blowing snow causing white-out, icy conditions.

Merry Christmas
Ok, side note- Tim went to check and apparently Jenna is up. I have no idea how long she's been up. We told her she couldn't get up until 7:00, but the power went out around 3:00 so her clock is 3 1/2 hours slow. She asked Tim if it was ok to get up and go potty. Oops! Sorry Dolly!

Jenna's quote of the day.
Greg's a star
This is for my family. It's Uncle Greg dancing on stage at the Desert Star Theater.
No, it's not in slow motion. That's just how he danced! Ü

Important news flash!
Major slacker
And finally, here are the pilgrim hat treats I made for Jenna's class party. They are Keebler Fudge Stripe cookies, mini peanut butter cups, a little frosting and a passion fruit Tic Tac. They were a big hit!

By the way, if anyone has thought about joining me, WW just launched a new program- it is a great combination of some of the older plans. The best of everything! Just do it!!

Etching names on glassware
They turn out so great! It would be an easy way to personalize a Christmas or wedding gift- practical, yet person- my favorite combination!

Hope to see you there!

Have you oiled lately?
I was sewing along and noticing my machine was loud and a bit choppy. "Oil it," I thought but I kept going. A bit later I thought again "oil it." I told myself I had so much to do so I would oil it later. No, now. It may sound silly but I think I was being prompted to do this before I destroyed my machine.
Having never done this before I got out my manual to see what to do. It recommend oiling your machine weekly if you sew for less than an hour a day or daily if you sew more than that. OOPS!
Now it is running like a champ and MUCH quieter. It goes through nine layers of fabric with ease now!
Three cheers for reading directions!!!

Happy December!
Please know that I realize the blue doesn't match. I just don't know how to get rid of it!
