Monday Stuff On the Way to Other Stuff: Snow!

    It's raining now, late Sunday night...but by morning, we're supposed to be hip-deep in white stuff. It's okay...after a weekend at the Mile-High Mystery Conference, I don't have to go anywhere for a day. 
    I'll be doing appraisal days at the Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum in Golden, CO on Wednesday and Thursday this week. Curious about your quilt or other textile? Bring it by...I'd be glad to help.

The peaches are a treasured memory -- the Brick had his second peach pie, and we're finishing off the last wizened samples in the crisper. They'll be replaced by apples in a bit -- what apples don't fit in the cooler on the back deck. 
     The Brick heads out hunting this week with Daughter #2 and our friend Tommy. I'll stay home to hold the fort, and get caught up on work. Meanwhile:

But I LIKE Oysters...
