Celery Sticks - with chopped olive spread.

You know what's pretty fantastic? Well I could name plenty of things...

But you know what I hadn't made in a while? Okay. I'll let you know.

Celery sticks with a chopped olive spread. I made them the other night to take to my neighbor's (early) Thanksgiving dinner.

My mom's friend used to make them for various get together. I was a huge fan.

 Mmmmmmmmmmmm...

It was delicious (:

They are pretty simple to make. Cut your celery. Combine olives (with pimentos) and cream cheese, mash together. A little of the juice from the olives helps. Spread it on. And TADA!

Update 11/5 and Into the Month of November!

I am alive. Just fell off the face of the earth for a little. You know how it goes.


Was able to finish a sewing project the other day. 

 It's been on my project list for a while now.

The outside fabric is a butterfly print, and the inside is this sparkly purple material. The bow is one I re purposed.

It was supposed to be a child sized bag, but as a result came out larger than expected. My friend likes it. I'm going to make two smaller ones to match for her daughters. 

This was the first purse I've done constructed with sides and a bottom.

Halloween came and went.

AWS was a dragon or dinosaur rather. Peyton was Dorothy in her photos, but went TOTing as a cuddly bunny because it was so cold. 

My birthday also came and went. I'm now another whole year older. 


That's about it for today.
And for our deployment break down. 
It's November. Which means another month finished. 5 months. And we are finishing up on day 159.
Hooray for us being closer to being done.
