Alexander the Sort of Okay
The Big M and I enjoy watching history, and I saw an ad for the story of Alexander the Great. I was excited, and squealed-- "Oh, we gotta see this!" the Big M is the straight man in this team, and I fall into his puns and teasing all the time. He said "you know, Alexander the Great was not his real name..."
Mamma:" Really?"::eyes wide like saucers::
Big M: "Yes. Before his big performance in Persia, he was Alexander the Sort of Okay. He goes to Persia, gets a new agent, changes his name, and he's a hit!"

Generally, Big M is quiet, and somewhat serious--- but then the imp comes out. Mamma is the noisy imp, all the time! Big M is passionate about photography, Mamma took a course to learn some basics, and we both spend much time with photography. Don't want a dark room, would rather spend time looking for things to photograph.

While flying around recently housecleaning, I came up with a funny thought. What if Vash dared Millie to a chess game, if he wins-- donuts, if he loses, he does Millies chores.... I posted the sketch, let me know what you think.

It's one of the rare autumn days in So. Cali. A little brisk, time for sweaters/ so what better time to bake biscotti! I smell it baking now--- the first batch is coconut/macadamia nut. The day looks perfect for a photography shoot.... sending all my friends here blue skies and fluffy clouds, and a warm hug to keep everyone warm. Im on blanket #4--- and 2 patches for Warm Up America.


If anyone else knits or crochets, I urge you go to Michael"s craft store and donate a 7 x 9" knitted or crocheted piece to this project. Check the dimensions at the store. It will make you feel good to know you will be contributing to help make blankets for those in need.

Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends
