Pumpkins were the main thing yesterday.
We did go to one of the local bakeries for some of their cranberry-pecan bread. It makes amazing turkey sandwiches.
And we did our other errands — hairdresser, grocer, etc. — and then to the pumpkin patch…
… where we found this handsome vegetable…
… which #2 son turned into this fine fellow.
I finished binding the runner. Now it will get as much embroidery as I have time for before time runs out.
And the back so you can see the stitching. I always want to see the backs of quilts.
I think that table runner is so charming. Too pink and stripy for my own house, but certainly lovely.
i love the table runner. it’s turned out so nicely — and what a special gift it will make. 🙂
Man! That looks amazing…
No I haven’t run across the book although I suspect that it’s here somewhere – those sort of books usually have an international audience. At the risk of sounding cynical I probably wouldn’t read it. Between them the Bible and the Quran must be the bestselling books of all time so it seems hardly surprising to me that any writer who wants to makes lots of money will sooner or later write some book that deals with the subject matter of those 2 best sellers – after all, I don’t think they have any copyright on them so no one (apart from God maybe) can sue them for copyright infringement. Now there’s a question – what sort of punishment do you think that the God of the Bible and/or the Quran might visit upon authors who infringe on copyright of those Books?
Aah, but according to Von Daniken (who also jumped on the writing about God bandwagon) that pillar of salt stuff was because those fleeing turned around and got hit by the nuclear backlash of either God’s flying saucer’s nuclear exhaust or God’s saucer’s big atomic gun (can’t remember which, it has been many years since I’ve read Von Daniken)
