Orange

I've been getting ready for Halloween with much fanfare. Last night I watched It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown as I sewed Trick or Treat bags for my little Tater Tots (that's what I call my students).
Is this a metaphor for my life?

Over and over, Charlie Brown trusts Lucy, only to be duped again as she pulls the ball away in delight... Hmmm... sounds familiar.

Sew, back to my project. Yesterday was a huge day, I finally bought my embosser! I sewed little drawstring bags and then stamped their names on them with the letter set of stamps from this post. Then my two's stamped spiders, kitties, ghosts and pumpkins to their heart's content. They look pretty cute! I'll have to post a pic of the completed project later today.




Check out the stamps to the right. This is a great way to recycle old marker tops. One of the teachers hot glued the tops right on the foam stamps, making them easier to use for little fingers. What a great idea!


I voted yesterday. Have you?

Feeling proud of myself, I felt I deserved a treat. Baskin Robbins has $1 scoop of the day and today was Oreo cookies and Cream.

Yum!

I also treated myself to this book, which I've had my eye on for quite sometime.

Hello, cake decorating classes!
