T&T translated means "This and That".
Hard to comprehend it is December already; where did this past year go? The seasons just sorta flew by but all those seasons are visible in the new lines on my face, lol.
Another Thanksgiving has come and gone, the calendar has been flipped to December so it is time to remove the hooked turkey rug from the harvest table and put something else in its place.
It's too soon for Santa so will enjoy the Deer and Blue House I hooked plus the inside bird houses purchased at Rugs by the Sea camp. They are made with discarded parts from the Chalfonte Hotel as repairs were made.
My Thanksgiving baked chicken dinner was good. While I wanted to pick up a few things at Walmart the next day decided it was unwise due to it being Black Friday and avoided the whole weekend. So decided to make a T&T soup from my fridge and freezer.
Personally I think vegetable soup is made much better with cabbage ~ could be because that's what my mother always said. I only had a small wedge of cabbage left so chopped that up along with a little left over chicken breast, celery, onion, a couple potatoes, carrots and bits of this and that. Was good but probably would have been better if I'd had more cabbage.
Back in the day when I vended at the beach area there were so many creative artists and the temptation to buy overwhelming. This painted rock was just one of the many purchases I made. But this isn't just any ordinary rock.This was one of hundreds of rocks used as ballast in a British War Ship which sunk off Lewes, Delaware. The artist attached this inscription to the bottom of all her work. If you want to learn more about the HMS DeBraak click HERE.Saundra
Awesome rock with the history attached. Chicken for Thanksgiving would have made me a happier hostess. Not a big fan of turkey but I do like the stuffing. Soup looks wonderful and I'm sure it was delish. Cabbage is verboten around here but not by me. Smile Betty
ReplyDeleteIf you figure out where the year went, please let me know.
ReplyDeleteVery cool painted rock and I love the story.
Love that turkey rug of yours! Too early for Santa? Nah...it's kosher now that Thanksgiving is over. Soup looks yummy. I really need to get back into my soup rotation...really I have only made a few so far this season...and none of the leftovers managed to find their way into the freezer. The painting on that rock is awesome...but I'm glad they put the history on it. How cool is that?! Love the idea of those little birdhouses too! ~Robin~
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome rock! Will need to go and read about that. I so love both your turkey and deer rugs. I never make veggie soup unless it is made with cabbage. Yours looked yummy. Janice
