I started the morning with getting a pedicure at the local vo-tech school. The best $6.36 I spend.
Then I had sewing day where I managed to finish the first row of the quilt I need to get done for my tech’s mother for Christmas.

Prize loves peppermint treats. That’s an understatement actually. The term most commonly used in relation to Prize and peppermint treats is “crack wh0re.” Thug may be more accurate.

Then I was trying to take her picture. That is usually hard because she wants to push buttons on the camera instead of standing back and posing. Add in treat hysteria and I couldn’t get a good shot.
