1-2-3 Hockey: Isn’t This Countup Over Yet? Why Isn’t It The Season Yet? This Is Getting Ridiculous

Last night I finished the last of the triangle points for the Christmas quilts. The technique seems fun and easy, but it’s actually kind of annoying. It’s a big relief to know I don’t have to do them again… until the next time I see a quilt with half-square triangles and fall in love. — Pookie

I was so tired of dropping my spool of thread and my scissors over the left side of the couch and onto the floor that I decided it was time to make a caddy for them to rest on the right side of the couch. This little gem is from Anna Maria Horner’s book "Seams to Me". Not only is it the perfect resting spot for my scissors and thread (and the USB cord for the camera, not pictured), but it’s also the perfect canvas for the "Apple" fabrics I purchased on a whim a few months ago! (It’s also supposed to serve as a pin cushion, but I love my Dresden plate pin cushion too much to cheat on it.)

One of our favorite terrible pictures from our last 365 was a shot of Whole Foods brownie bites on the couch on ANTM night. And so tonight, on ANTM night, when we have Whole Foods brownie bites, we’ve staged a "fancier" photo shoot. In that we plated the brownie. And that we attempted focus this time.

This truck delivering pumpkins, gourds, and corn stalks was spotted in the parking lot of the grocery store. Must be getting to be autumn!

Last year we made Katamari one of our 365s, so imagine our delight with being able to pay that day homage with another Katamari shot today. Of course, this is Katamari Forever, which just came out. We had a huge scare when we got word this afternoon that the power was out in our neighborhood, but our local power company made good, and we were able to spend a magnificent evening rolling up new stars.
