I also enjoy Joanne Fluke books, Lillian Jackson Braun, other contemporary light mysteries.
I haven't seen any quilting magazines yet. Didn't even realize there were out there. Now I'll have to take a look! [QUOTE=Quilty-Louise;6348522]Dear SSR (secret santa recipient), Do you like to read books? if so what kind of genre do you like? Do you like quilting magazines? any particular ones? all ? none? |
[QUOTE=Nelco;6348898]I live 3 blocks from Main St. Could it be ME :D[/UOTE]

Thank you for the fudge recipe Airwick156, I'm going to make a batch (just to sample:thumbup:) today. Just wondering, have you ever tried any of the other flavored chips in the recipe? Would love to try butterscotch, chocolate mint chips...well you get the idea.

I sent this to my DH and the following was his reply to me.
Nope Santa is a man: He lives at the North Pole. All women require ambient room temperature high enough to cook a turkey, so there's no way any woman choose the North Pole as her base of operations. The Bahamas, maybe. He's fat and jolly. No one dares to describe any woman as "fat and jolly." If Santa was a woman, and you called her "fat and jolly," you wouldn't find coal in your stocking, you'd find a bomb! He hangs out at the mall. Sure, at first glance this might seem to prove that he's a she. But, while both men and women go to malls, what does Santa do at the mall? He sits down! Do women ever sit at malls? No, women shop; men sit. Santa sits. 'Nuff said. He walks on roofs. Women refuse to get on roofs! Have you ever seen a woman on a roof? He likes milk and cookies. If he were a she, you have to leave dark chocolate and herbal tea by the fireplace. Or, if she was still sensitive about that whole "Fat and Jolly" thing, she'd demand carrot sticks and water.He uses the chimney. What woman would crawl into a dirty, smelly chimney? A woman would carry a set of keys for every house and then not be able to find them in her purse. He has reindeer. Reindeer are totally a guy thing: big, hairy, smelly, with huge antlers. No woman would use them. She would prefer a stretch limo. See? Santa must be a man!

Dedemac, I see Fluke was on your list of favorite books. I have read every one of her books and enjoy reading the recipes she includes. Nice, clean, wholesome books are fun to read. I also have read all of the Braun books, having 2 Siamese cats of my own it makes it all the more fun. Joanna Carl also writes a nice mystery that is similar to Fluke's but instead of cookies her business is chocolate. Oh brother, I'm on here again writing about candy and cookies!
I have always wanted to read the quilt series books that so many rave about. Jan Thank you for the new author. I have both of the Cat cookbooks and want to pick up the Cookie murder cookbook. |

The chocolate cat caper is on it's way to my library, should have it by Thursday. I guess I have to get more sewing done so I can have some time to read. |

She's right, I do have a class A CDL license. And I know the way to her house VERY well! I can also get my hands on a tractor/trailer to haul all her fabric too! Course, I might just pack all her stuff up & move her closer to me while I'm at it! I miss seeing her!
Been making some things for my Santaee. I know they like homemade, so am filling up the box with unique things that I know she'll enjoy. Clue for the day? You have lots of pine trees in your state. |
It's Thanksgiving .... I ate a piece of pumpkin pie, 2 butter tart squares and a box of Bridge Mixture today....

Thanks SulaBug for the nice comment on my avatar photo.
That is my oldest furbaby Bandi (the one we just found out has a bad heart). I have that same photo enlarged to a 16x20 framed and hanging on the wall. LOL |

rwquilts....that is so cute. I think I'll make that next year

If my SS is wondering if I read or get magazines, yes I do. I get subscriptions to 5 quilt mags and have been reading the Elizabeth Casey series. I still need the last 2 in the series "Let it Sew" and "Remnants of Murder".
Hint for the day: she likes 2 1/2" strips |
Someone had asked about books and I started to answer but then got side-tracked. Anyway, I read a lot but usually pick up my favorites, as soon as they come out in paperback. However, I've never read any of the quilt mysteries and would welcome any of those. Used books are fine, as long as they don't have cigarette smoke residue on/in them. The smoke residue gives me horrible sinus headaches, which take a long time to go away . . . and as I've learned from another swap, having them sprayed with Fabreeze, only makes things worse. :(

Oh my gosh this is toooo funny, what a great sense of humor your DH has. Not to mention he was "spot on" with his descriptions of why Santa is not a woman. Now I have to share this with my DH, I know he will get a bang out of it.
Jan Thanks for sending this in and starting my morning with a good laugh! Phyllis |

Hi everyone --
I've got my box stuffed to the gills with goodies for my partner. Would like to know when it's ok to mail it out. I know the deadline is Nov. 15, but can we ship before then? I really think my SS partner is going to like what she gets. I've had lots of fun planning for her. Thanks, Stitch124 |
