It seems like fall is a good time for feeling cozy and thankful about stuff
(you may still have summer where you live - but there is a definite chill in the air up here)
a good day for snuggling up with some hot cocoa
:)

I'm thankful for my T on Tuesday friends ...
Christen sent me this fun package of treasures!
Christen has an amazing gift for precise needlework, beading and art doll creating
Like this beautiful pansy brooch:
... and Christen must know that I love
street altered bottle caps
AND
sea turtles
... and that I love a good cuppa ...
Thank you Christen for all the thoughtful gifts and kind wishes!
That was so sweet!
