Oh, and Trader Joe's definitely makes chocolate dipped, peanut butter filled pretzels, so I'm sure other companies do too. Wicked but very good.marcellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11980574317495245466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-42968173621028961982011-11-24T10:01:08.657-05:002011-11-24T10:01:08.657-05:00eek, all the traffic!

I'm not that crazy. But then my longarm quilter called and said she had the quilt done that I'm giving to Mom for Christmas, so I had to pick it up. We arranged to meet at a quilt shop about 10 miles up the interstate from my house. Oh, I should have known better. Humongous traffic mess on I-75. Took me forever. So I thought I'd get smart and go home on back roads. Wrong. Traffic jam on E. Brainerd Rd. It seemed like I'd never get home. But the quilt is gorgeous, so it was worth it, even though I pulled my hair out sitting in traffic!The Calico Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01772374749065425388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-69863625853564100572011-11-24T07:58:19.945-05:002011-11-24T07:58:19.945-05:00We were in NYC for the parade one Thanksgiving and...We were in NYC for the parade one Thanksgiving and made the mistake of walking into Whole Foods on Columbus Circle on the Eve. Nightmare!!! No one could even move and we must have exceeded the fire safety number of people in a building. We pushed and pulled ourselves out and went to a restaurant for dinner instead of our grocery store take out. <br /><br />The parade was rained on but the people we met were so nice and happy. One restaurant was handing out free cider and hot chocolate so they got our vote for a Thanksgiving dinner and it was great.<br /><br />Lots different than mall shopping and a whole lot more fun.ana s.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14861518030438585225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-14724184330365068002011-11-24T01:33:46.943-05:002011-11-24T01:33:46.943-05:00Just think for a day that you're not an Americ...Just think for a day that you're not an American(fun, but who would you be?).
