THURSDAY? WAIT..REALLY?

I LIKE/LOVE : this little piece by a UK quilter , Julie Gahagen;
 Isn't it just adorable--so cute...
*******************************************
It is Fa-reezing here;((((((( wind chill 5 degrees...we are encased in ice...

I LIKE (really, I do) how my garden's "bones" look:
This shot is out our front doorway...the sun is just about to come over the hill....

*********************************
Since it's been so darn cold, I have stayed pretty much inside and
yesterday I made this : I LIKE:
My Mom and I used to make bowls-ful of these along with limes for Christmas
decorations....the aroma as they dry is great....(set on your mug rug, Dawnie;))) )
**************************************************

And I LIKE:
our sax playin' and dancin'  Jazzy SANTA:
He isn't playing all that well this year--needs new batteries...like so many
of us hahaha,,
*******************************************
I LIKE these cute Christmas cards I've received this year:






Isn't this just so sweet?






And
and.....
       This sparkling old timey scene

  4. So many fun holiday things in your post! Sorry you re iced in tho.

    The quilt is adorable. That quilter has a number of youtube vids, her applique method is unusual! But her designs are so cute!

    Love the Santa. We had one for awhile that clashed cymbals. Mo was terrified,lol.

    enjoy your day.
