You may have noticed that I'm starting to regularly blog again. Hopefully that makes you smile:@) A lot has happened in the last year, as I'm sure it has with you too. My biggest change, I have recently retired from full time work. I'm trying to patiently give myself some time to create a new daily routine. I plan to make the blog a part of that routine again. What will I talk about? Honestly, I'd like to keep Pig In Mud as eclectic as it's always been. Focusing on short seasonal posts, cooking, baking, easy crafts, quick pop-ins with retail finds, maybe a little football party fodder and... Yes, I like having Barbie a part of my little world too.
When QVC brings something back that was popular and is kind of nostalgic, they call it "back from the vault". Well, these wooden add-ons for a pumpkin certainly fit that bill. My brother made these about a bazillion years ago. We lost him this year too. As I was in the shed I was tickled to find this kit on the shelf. I stopped at my son's house and grabbed one of the volunteer pumpkins from his garden, wa-la, a Thanksgiving turkey decoration for the planter. Just something goofy that makes me smile:@)
Side note: My poor white pansies. Some critter keeps eating them… Note to self: No more white, this is the second year this has happened. Maybe they smell milder or tastier than the other colors? Oh well, lesson learned.
Have a Happy Day:@)
