If you follow
my Facebook page, you will know why my Santa dog is sat with these two little resin dogs, looking very similar but made by the
Gisela Graham Company. If you don't...I'll fill you in next week. It's been a long day at the coalface.
Or, as they're calling it in twitter-ville, #snOMG
This is what my backyard looks like:
Sassy's doggy water cooler is completely buried. I've curled up with coffee and a book and have no plans to leave my house for a few days.
We've been measuring the snow on our roof top, but had to give up an hour or two ago, because our 14-inch ruler was completely submerged. I've always complained that DC doesn't get enough snow... I've been doing a happy dance all day.
BUT! I must thank Devourer of Books for being a Most Awesome Secret Santa.
YAY!
So, if you are also caught in #snOMG, stay off the roads, have a nice warm beverage, and read a good book! Merry Blizzard!
...was our usual quiet togetherness. Reverting back to our student days in terms of drinking good beer and slobbing out. I baked the grandmother of all Christmas cakes...
hand blanching almonds - hours of fun for everyone! and our little living tree was invited in - he has been with us for eleven years and we decorate him a few days before Christmas...
The lovely wood fairies called again, with six sumptuous sacks of logs, and Secret Santa left a mysterious bundle on the doorstep on Christmas Eve. Somehow 'he' knew I am in the middle of a tea towel famine. (Andy has used most of them to clean the bike with). Not only did I get a beautiful Emma Bridgewater tea towel which I can't quite bring myself to use, but a somewhat eccentric miscellany of coal, logs, a clockwork cowboy, fruit, nuts sprouts, chocolates and glittery stars. Eccentric, unless you know me well and how delighted I would be with it all. I think I know who it was though...
My Christmas SOSF match sent me delightful hand made ceramic decorations...thank you so much Sarah, they will be treasured. There was splendid Christmas box from another kind fairy - complete with sweet handpainted card...
jampacked with goodies, as every respectable hamper should be ...which magically turned into a Pumpkin..."I would eat the world if I could get my jaws round it" ...and a mere two days rest for Andy before he had to return to the Valhalla of retail where he is gainfully employed.
Next blog installment - Christmas card Heaven and the biggest 'Thank You' letter I have ever written.
SO EXCITED AND HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!!!!
Yes...I'm yelling that at my laptop ;->

I'm so curious but I'll be patient!
Gretel, I am facebook-less so must be patient.
Meanwhile, I do love the look of those pups with their mugs (or should I say muzzles) turned toward the sun.
xo
They're gorgeous Gretel, and Santa dog is in great company :D
hahah.... you are too funny..... long day at the coalface....hahahha..... but, I know what you mean....
Hello Gretel, it's been a long time.
Just seen your blog and also the GG stuff on FB - really lovely work. I'm SO pleased for you, you did it!
Did all this come about from my meeting with Piers at the NEC a few years ago when I introduced you?
I remember your email to me re commercial work saying
''I kept the Penny Johnson instruction manual ;) ''
heee heee - so it worked :o)
I hope all is good for you and Andy.
Penny.
