It's December already! Today is "I like Thursday" and time to celebrate what is good in our lives.
We had a snow day on Tuesday which meant staying at home and doing some sewing and cooking. I was happy with my progress!
I love our neighbors. Our car has a check engine light on and went into the garage today. Our neighbor lent one of their cars to us and the other neighbor said if the car isn't ready by tomorrow (when DH has his doctor's appointment), to take theirs. I am very lucky!
My sewing is going well. I made a number of bowl cozies for my mother to gift to her friends. We ordered bowls to put in them and will fill them with candy. It's a challenge to take my mother shopping and I'm more hesitant when it can be slick in places. I'm working on using up a lot of 1930s reproduction scraps and have a few more things to make for Christmas.
Lana's prompt this week is games we like to play. We used to play pinochle regularly with Lori and Scott until he passed. The girls always beat the boys and it was always a blast. In the neighborhood, a bunch of used to play Rummikub but again, one of our friends passed and we haven't had the heart since.
Wishing you a safe and happy weekend! Stay warm!

You find the prettiest old-fashioned pictures to share in your posts! I love that one with the little girl and the snow coming down. That is so nice of you to help your mom with Christmas gifts. Those bowl cozies will be loved!
