    When I was growing up we had a neighbor that was straight from Poland...she baked all the time. She made a cheesecake in mini tins like this...and she used a very interesting tool to put the dough in place. She washed a beer bottle with the beer in it...and wrapped a cotton dishcloth around the cap and neck. Rubberband in place...dip this in flour and then into the dough...worked like a charm.
    She never had any grandchildren so had adopted us...we were in and out of her kitchen all the time.

    I returned from vacation in the Bahamas today and received my SS gift from faraway Montana!!! Thank you to my Secret Santa friend. It was a wonderful treat, considering we had to go from 80 degree weather to 30 degree weather overnight boo hoo. Looking forward to the opening on the 8th! Now we're on to planning a big Thanksgiving dinner for my hubby's side of the family. I'll spend the whole week counting blessings, including the chance to join in on fun stuff like this!! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! K.

    Just got a package from a dear friend of mine, today. It was Phoebe's new holiday shirts! For your entertainment, here are pictures of her, modeling them. Not the greatest photos, as I had to keep shoving her back onto the sofa, so had the camera way too close!

Can't wait till opening day!
