What is the problem!!??

Thank you everyone for your visits,it is 9:00 PM and all is well, I have picked a name to send to Madame Samm and that person is...

#53 Love Duff
Good Luck!!!

What in the world is all this Ghastlie stuff!! I mean can't you just leave us alone!


We are just like everyone else!

Really!!

We so enjoy each others company. In fact once a month we all get together for dinner.  This month was my turn to make the main dish.
So I donned my apron and got right to work!




Mmmm, spaghetti, see, normal, just like yours!!

I was able to bring it nice and hot in my casserole carrier!


(pattern from 2 Little Hooligans)

I also brought the aunts a treat, they need to move into some other craft besides knitting!! This cute little basket filled with  Presencia Perle Finca  should do the trick!



This was the first time in months that we were all here so what a wonderful opportunity for a family picture.



See, we are no different than any other red blooded family!!
Who am I? Hmmmm, that will be my secret!!


Today's grand prize is this
Persension Finca Threads.  (supplied by me)




Each of the blogs today will submit one name from their comments to Madame Samm and you will then have a 1 out of 5 chance to win this fun prize.
What do you have to do to enter, just leave a comment, I will pick one name later today and send it off to Madame Samm our hostess for this blog hop.
Winner posted on her blog


Now...
Hop over to see my other sisters today!

Wednesday November 2nd
