Getting ready...

In my true fashion, I designed an Excel form to get organized for Thanksgiving. We do our family Thanksgiving the Saturday before Thanksgiving since I work 1/2 a day and the kids both do dinners with their in-laws. I'm not a big cook and don't like turkey so we have a pizza and dessert bar where we make our own pizzas on a choice of flat bread or sub rolls. Then I make everybody's favorite desserts. So I have to get organized because it is just a couple of weeks away. Then I fix myself a small dinner for Thanksgiving day. Ham, potato salad, deviled eggs and baked beans and something for my dessert for the weekend. It works great for all of us. I made me an Excel form in order to get myself organized and ready for the big day.


Remember when I showed you this that I thought was so cute. Well, I am going to make a modified version of it. I went shopping for fabric yesterday and just wasn't thrilled with the muted plaids I found at my local shops. I found absolutely nothing that matched this.


If you remember from my trees of Christmas past, I am a little old fashioned in my decor but love a twist of sparkly and bling. Christmas needs to have some glitter and shine for me.


So I picked some fabric for my craft project that has some sparkle in it. I'm going to work on it tomorrow. I have the grandkids and they may want to help out.


I'll keep you posted on the results. Have a great Monday.
