Give Thanks

Happy Thanksgiving!

I am so grateful to all of you who stop by the blog and share a little in my life.  Many of you are dear friends and I am so thankful for your friendship.  May you be blessed this day as you celebrate with family and friends.

I am thankful today that my son and his wife are celebrating with us, our niece and nephew along with his girlfriend are also here.  They have traveled from Indiana, Nebraska, Texas and California.  We are truly blessed.

Ink

The snow is falling falling falling, my to do list is getting longer and not much progress is being made on the projects that should have been done already.  So, what do I do - I make ink.

My parents farm had a small black walnut orchard and cookies and cakes have never quite tasted the same as mom's without the black walnuts.  One of my students had a tree in their backyard and she was giving them away.  I jumped at the chance and boy do the cookies bring back delicious memories.  That is when I decided to make black walnut ink from the hulls and that is what you see in the picture above.  So now instead of working on what I should be I want to ink or dye everything in sight.

How do you procrastinate?  I don't seem to have any problem finding things to do that keeps me from doing what I should.

May you have a positively productive day, whatever it is you choose to do.
