Michelle's copper pumpkins are fabulously festive on her front porch. Do you have a monogrammed pumpkin at your house, I don't?
I brought Michelle her usual Vanilla Diet Coke, but somehow ended up with a large instead of an extra large cup of ice. I know I ordered an XL, but they brought me a large and I didn't say anything about it. It was half gone by the time I got to Michelle's house, dang it!
For lunch today we had this fabulous tortellini, sausage crockpot meal (I don't know what it's called) with peas. It felt like such a real meal and was perfect for a brisk fall day like today. I also found out that I like peas...who knew?
Michelle (wearing her cute, new sweater) worked on gratitude journals again. She's pretty sick of working on them, but she's got some serious skills. Even though I've seen her in action tons of times I'm still surprised that she can use Mod-Podge without ending up covered in it. I have no such skills and usually end up a sticky mess.
I wrote 6 cards and put a package together then sorted through the correspondence container I always bring with me to her house. I'm always dumping stuff in there and then am annoyed that it's such a mess, so it was nice to find out what I had in there.
Michelle and I are increasingly distressed and disturbed by our neck and chin area and were laughing because we're going to have to start suspending the camera on the ceiling in order to get a shot taken from high enough above us to slim down our faces, hence our strategically pensive poses for today's self-portrait.
I thought it was cute and funny that Michelle was wearing slippers today, I need to get in on that. Maybe I could keep a pair there for Creative Friday purposes, especially since I'm almost always wearing flip-flops and do tend to get cold feet all winter.

Very funny to discover you like peas. Good thing you tried them.
Even though I post a lot of pictures of myself I still wonder if I would be recognizable in public... we all know I don't post the most realistic ones.
I have been wearing fuzzy socks everyday... highly unusual but I don't stay warm otherwise... another sign of old age.
I have been wearing my slippers all week also. They are super comfy and keep my feet warm nicely. Plus, Blake gave them to me for Christmas last year and I like that he notices every time I wear them.
I haven't had peas in a really long time. I never liked them as a child. Maybe it is time to try them again?
Peas edition? So funny! I couldn't imagine what that could possibly mean. Real peas, who knew!
You guys are so cute in that picture.
Peas edition, eh? That's just funny. I'm glad you liked them!
Like Amie, I always wonder how anyone would recognize me in real life. Well, I guess you post realistic pictures of me sometimes. Heaven knows I don't.
I sent a thank you note to one of Eva's nursery teachers this week. Eva has become reluctant to go to nursery, but this one leader has taken to coming and finding her when Sacrament Meeting ends, and then Eva is magically excited to go! She's an angel.
I think we're really on to something with our pensive poses.
I've been wearing my slippers all the time for the last couple of weeks, it just feels right. I'd be happy to set you up with a Creative Friday pair!
What? Word verification? Is there information I don't know?
i was trying to take a picture of myself this morning from a tricky angle and had to go through ten shots before i could get one without a major waddle.
What? How can you not discover peas till your 30's? Did you used to hate them like I used to hate peppers and then woke up one day to liking them?
Slippers. I always say I'll get some. I think I would love them as I, too, get cold feet but don't like to wear shoes in the house.
I do wish Michelle would post that recipe. It looks wonderful.
Rebekah's major waddle comment made me laugh. The one thing I've discovered through blog posts is that many of us are self-conscious of our necks. It hasn't changed the number of my chins, but at least I know that I'm no longer alone on the worry and find it bothers me less. So, next time you're at my blog, count my chins maybe you'll feel better.
Green peas: no. Field peas, black-eyed peas, etc: yes. But, everything made at Michelle's house looks/sounds good to me!
I am not a slipper person but I wear flip flops as though they are my slippers. I change into flip flops every day when I get home from work.
I absolutely LOVE the pumpkin.
your *pensive* poses are killing me!!
I do wear slippers or fuzzy socks and I mailed a LOT of things this week!
