THE WRONG TURKEY

We have a different kind of turkey visiting us today!  I've never seen them inspecting the dropped seeds under the bird feeders!  It made me think of  Araignee's friendly vulture!

I did a lot of cleaning (floors mostly because living on sand, there is a lot carried in by man and beast!) and resting in turn yesterday so I was ready to do the kitchen duty baking today. 

 I did make these small bowl Koozies to give my guests on Thanksgiving.  I like them for holding my ice cream dish 

so I don't get cold hands while eating

 and I thought others would like these, too!

They are a nice size for small bowls!

I hope you are having a good time preparing for tomorrow's feasting with friends and family.

Coats and Heads

 I knit another dog sweater-this one in the same yarn 

with smaller needles so the fabric was tighter.

I like the fabric better on this one, especially since I know that RedHeart 

softens so much after washing.  

(I changed from #8 needles to #6)

 And as soon as I finished this one, I started another.

Help!  

I might have a problem.

Why is this knit bringing such pleasure?

Truth-I don't even like dogs.

I do like a good knit though, 

and I will give the ones that don't fit Millie's dog, 

to the local shelter.

 Look at what I saw;

a committee of vultures!

They had dragged road kill to a safer place to savor their meal.

They let us get quite close and when we did, 

I found that they are not the turkey vultures at all!

I thought all of our vultures were turkey vultures but I was wrong.

Truth-there is also another species of vulture called black vultures.

See, no red heads but rather they are black; what an original name, right?!

You can also see the white tipped wing in the  previous photo.

We learned something new together!

Don't you just love that?!
