I do have a finish TGH Dutch Strawberries on 40ct. Creme Brulee and NPI. I forgot to take a picture of my stocking. I will do that tomorrow. A lot going on here this week. It is cherry season in Indiana and I have three trees. My girls threaten to cut them down every year. Last year we picked and put away over 20 gallons. I kinda feel like the hen in story who will help me make the bread because no one likes to pick cherries but they don't have any problem eating the pies or jam. I don't mind picking, it is the pitting I don't like. I happened to find this handy dandy gizmo at the hardware store. Now it goes a lot faster with it. It can pit as faster as you can work the plunger.
We also had a bad storm roll through here Friday night. My patio furniture ended up in the side yard while I took cover in the basement. My neighbor had a huge tree blow over by the strong winds. DH had an outside fire going on and I heard the wind pick up and decided to look out. On the other side of the house I saw hot ashes in the air. Not good! I am not sure which would have been worse the house burning down or a tornado. Luckily, neither happened.
While I was out taking pictures of the damage. Tuffy thought he would visit the geese. Funny thing, they don't like Tuffy. He wanted them to come out and play duck, duck, goose and they were not up for games. In fact, I am pretty sure they would like to have held him under the water with all the hissing they were doing.
I promise to post an update on my stocking but until next time, Happy Stitching!
