Last night I had a bath with one of the pink bath bombs Mr. C gave me for Christmas. I put on my pink nighty and new pink hand knitted Christmas socks. This morning I crocheted myself a matching pink headband. 💗 The Fairy Yarnmother who knitted my socks sends me her leftover yarn for my little projects; so, I had an exact match.

I got behind because of all of the holiday bruhaha; so I did two squares this week.

Today I am thankful for the gift of warm feet.

The Hogfather came and he brought me my very own swamp dragon! Meet Errol! 😁 🐲

Santa came!

I got many lovely gifts today, but one had me perplexed at first. It was hard as a brick until I took it out of the packaging and it expanded. It's a U shaped pillow to put on my lap when I crochet to take the strain away from my elbows and shoulders. Brilliant!

 

Good morning, Sunbeams!

Bonjour, Rayons de Soleil!

🌞❤️🌻❤️😻😻🐦‍⬛

Miss Watson hopes you're all keeping nice and warm.

 Note to self:

If you make bubble and squeak with purple cabbage it comes out puce! 🫣

It tasted a lot better than it looks.

Happy Hogswatch to all who celebrate!

Mr. C fashioned me a fried bread piggy for my Hogwatch breakfast. 🥰

 Blessed Solstice, dear siblings.

Mr. C drove and I navigated for over an hour through pea soup fog to reach Elliotts Boucherie this morning! It was well worth it. The staff/owners were absolutely lovely and we got loads of English goodies that we haven't been able to find elsewhere. Meat pies, and sausages, and bacon, oh my! Mr. C is doing us a fry-up as I type this. 😋

I got creative with the lid from a can of Bisto Gravy, scissors, my hole punch, some yarn, stickers, and a jingle bell.

I tried an experiment with the square bear pattern. It makes me think of a tiny sasquatch. 😁

Update on us

15:00 hrs

A light breakfast, followed by a trip to the local post office in the camper to dispatch Christmas cards, earned us a second breakfast in good Hobbit tradition. Fair Damsel thought it tasted absolutely Sunbeamadelicious and so did I.😋😋

All's well in our world, Sunbeams.

Dollies!

Poupettes!

The inside of my cabbage looks like something that would give H.P. Lovecraft sleepless nights.

Oops! I knew of the need for caution when cutting up beets, but I didn't think of it when I was chopping purple cabbage. A scrub brush has lightened the stains but I'm still a little blue. 😂

Wow! Thank you so much, Annabel Finley-Kensett for the package of wonderful things! I am truly blessed to have a kind and generous friend like you! 

The amethyst heart has joined a small collection of heart shaped objects given to me by people who love me. I am wearing the clear crystal which fits perfectly in my silver basket necklace. The Kitsune figure is beautiful! The amethyst spheres are fascinating. 

I love Piglet and Mr. C loves Tigger and is bouncing around singing "The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers." He has decided that they will go on our Christmas stockings as decorations.

Sometimes I have little bits of yarn leftover that I can't really make anything with. But, when I tie them all together, something truly special happens! The whole becomes greater than the sum of its parts. How do you like my new tote bag? No scrap left behind! 😁
