The day has ended well. We had a young guy and his girlfriend come over - we’d called him about being our snow-clearing guy and we wanted him to give us an estimate. He said $25, we said yes. 😃 Nice kid - he works for the county plus he has a side business of landscaping and stuff. I can see us hiring him for stuff. I can also see us giving him more than $25 if we get a lot of snow - honestly, I’d have been happy with $40 or $50. We’ll see how the winter goes. Then we went to Ledo’s for supper - I got soup, salad and breadsticks, and \*\*FCD \*\*just got a salad. It was yum. We’ve got ice cream for later. Yay! 😃 And now, I’m going to knit the night away. \*\*\* MWAH!!! ❤❤❤❤❤\*\*\* ---

> [@Sticks\_and\_Scones](#): > > Yes, it’s a ring made out of a spoon handle. 🙂 They’re my best seller. Even today, I sold 2 rings and one or two other things. Never did make that last $7. 😃 if we sent you a spoon or fork that we liked could you make one for a fee? I think that would be a fabulous Christmas gift. I assume silver and gold spoons work best since they wouldn’t react with skin like copper. ---

> [@dogbutler](#): > > I prefer a Ostemturdurkenarrowird > Humming bird stuffed in a sparrow, stuffed in a chicken, stuffed in a turkey, stuffed in an emu, stuffed in an ostrich. LOL you are on fire tonight. My favorite from the article was the rôti sans pareil (“roast without equal”) a bustard stuffed with a turkey, a goose, a pheasant, a chicken, a duck, a guinea fowl, a teal, a woodcock, a partridge, a plover, a lapwing, a quail, a thrush, a lark, an ortolan bunting and a garden warbler It might just be the pregnancy hormones talking, but I really want to try that. I bet some of those birds are illegal to eat now a days, :eek: ---

You could always keep it simple and have a “tur-brisk-efil” (which is turkey stuffed with brisket stuffed with gefilte fish) ---

> [@April\_R](#): > > if we sent you a spoon or fork that we liked could you make one for a fee? I think that would be a fabulous Christmas gift. I assume silver and gold spoons work best since they wouldn’t react with skin like copper. Unfortunately, my spoon ring making skills are somewhat unpredictable. Just because I intend to make a size 8 does not mean that I end up with a size 8. It might turn out as a 7 or a 9. :dubious: I do have some spoon rings in stock on my [Etsy store](http://www.etsy.com/shop/TinesToTreasures), though. When I went to look at it now it surprised me how few I have listed (about 35). So, I’m going to add some more in the next week or two as I currently have about 750 rings in stock altogether. **Doggio** , I told the HFUNs about my wardrobe malfunction today and Mrs. HFUN and her mom both laughed. Mr. HFUN just got this look on his face like _I am surrounded by waaaay too many women_. 😛 So, when are you going to meet Hockey Lady so she can [del]lick your elbow[/del] get to know what an awesome gent you are? I am home from the party. I was a bit apprehensive about going because despite the fact that I’ve seen them several times here and there it was regarding something that I have been helping them with. This was the first family party in awhile and he should have been there and we all knew it and felt it. That being said, I’m glad that I went and we really did have a good time. And the birthday girl really was surprised. ---

Good morning! I’ve been up for 2 hours and I’ve spent most of that time in bed watching Netflix. I’m hungry, but my sweetie is still in bed, so I may just go ahead and eat without him. I don’t feel like going out for breakfast today anyway. And I am not a fan of stuffing birds into birds into birds. ick. You people are all insane!!! That’s all I can manage for now. Must find food… Happy Sunday!
