Finished hooking now I need to do the finishing. Accidentally caught it on the gripper strips and had to do some repairs.

If you are stuck on what to buy people for gifts, local art is the answer.

Where can I get a reasonable sized ham that I can cook myself? bonus points for unsmoked.

Rudi is shouting at me. Is it because he's been fed but the food could've been better? Been fed but not enough? Or just that we're awake and that means the food situation may improve?

Caturday naps. Rudi squished himself right up against Eddie so that she had to snuggle him.

Did you know that Elf has a lot of Canadian connections?
The Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver became the North Pole, a haunted hospital in Coquitlam was used for interior sets and even the famous Buddy burp was Canadian!
This is the story of Elf and Canada!

We've laughed, we've cried, we laughed some more until we cried. Shared memories, looked at photos, drank cocktails and wine, eaten good food. I really needed this couple of days.
