Guten morgen!!
Just a fast note before I am on the run again...lol

Thank you all for your kind words re. our vacation pictures...sure wish you all could come with us next time!! Start saving your Pennies!!

LK...your DH has good taste!! The food on that plater is one of my favorite...double smoked bacon, black forest bacon and cold meats of any kind and fresh crusty bread (from wood fired oven)...yummyyyyyyyyyyy...here I go again...lol

Mary...you would enjoy the food there as well!!! To answer your question a Schnitzel is a breaded Pork steak...a Wiener Schnitzel is breaded Veal Steak. Very easy to make at home :)

Judy...you sure are a busy bee!!! Wish I had your energy to clean and declutter this house from top to bottom!!! lol...but I did manage to kill a few dust bunnies yesterday!! If you ever feel like you need a "working vacation" you could come to my house!!! lol
Love the work you are doing with the scroll saw!!! I think would be missing a few pieces of my fingers if I tried that...lol My Brother does a lot of the scroll saw work and I have a lot of his work here in my home...my fav. is the Christmas Pyramid he made me!!

Haven`t started the Christmas tree napkins yet...hope fully later today. I have found a few simular patterns to give you an idea of what I mean.

The Pattern I bought is called "Floral Bouquet Napkins" and is folded a bit different then those pattern.

Ohhhhh Betty LOVE that dresden Table cloth !!! Just stunning!! How big is the middle dresden?? I have the 20 blade and the 16 blade ruler and on Saturday I picked up a Mini Dresden plate ruler that makes a 12 blade dresden (perfect for using up scrap fabric)
I made a table topper with 3 rows of different size dresden plates, I really like the way it came out...it is like3D since the tips of the blades are not sewn down.

Dianne...so good to hear that Quill is feeling better!! Hope and pray that she will improve daily. Maybe she injured herself (back or paws) and she just needed a rest...that is what happend to our cat Tiger (almost 18 Years old)...she started limping and you could tell she was in pain...she went under our bed and I thought for sure that we had to put her down...we offered her food and water and she would just nibble on the food and drink a bit of water then lay down again...we kept checking up on her and you could tell in her eyes that there was still "spunk" and life left, so we let her be and low and behold after 2 days she started to move around and now she is running around like a spring chicken again. Guess Tiger just knew what is best for her and that was rest...like a human when they have a strain. Big hugs my friend and pleaseeeeeeeee bottle some of Diesels engery and send it here...lol...sure could use some...lol

Hello Carolyn...nice to meet you!! Hope your back is feeling better soon and your talk of venison makes me crave my Mom's Venison Roast...Mmmmmm sooooo good!!! Was marinated in red wine for 3 days!! My Dad was a Hunter, so I grew up with that kind of meat, but I haven`t had any venison in a longggggggggg time!!!

Thunder...hope all goes well at the Docs and wishing you a happy sewing day!!! What are you working on??

Barb...beautiful song for sure!!! My all time favorite Christmas song is still "Silent Night", never fails to give me goosebumps and a few tears.

Welllllllll better get going again...my friend is coming over later and we making a Christmas Wreath with fabric flowers!!!
Have all a wonderful day and do something nice for yourself!!!
Love and many hugs
Thea
