Closing in on the End
of a couple different things!!!
If you follow my ticker at the top of my blog, you will see that I am under 100 miles from my 'walking to Branson' journey. It has been fun to see how long it takes to walk that far. I started the ticker right before Christmas. I already have a destination in my mind for when I finish this one. It has been so much fun, I am going to do another destination....anyone have any ideas where it might be to??
Another almost there is my Crazy Challenge Finishes. I just finished #13 of 15 this morning. It is the October LHN monthly sampler. I think this one is my very favorite so far....I love the colors, I love the pumpkin, I love the bird!!! So much to love with it.
I made a raspberry cream pie yesterday. I baked the crust from scratch, I made the vanilla cream from scratch, I used a tube of raspberry filling that I bought & topped it with Cool Whip. Next time I make it, I will make my own pie filling & my own 'cool whip.' It was very good thou....I made it for my mom & aunt who came to visit yesterday. Tonight, we have company coming for supper, so I made Mint Choc. Chip Ice Cream this afternoon.....
You can see why I walk so much!! I would be a blimp if I didn't!!!
Thanks for stopping by! I appreciate each & everyone of you so much. Thank you to all of my new commentors......I DO NOTICE!!!!

Glad to hear the pie came out well.
Another sweet finish from you, Shari! And that pie looks absolutely delicious!!!
LOVELY STITCHING AND WONDERFUL PIE
LOVE TO COME TO TEA.
MMMMMM...the raspberry cream pie looks delicious and October looks great too! Congratulations!!
You have given me a dilemma though. I have really fallen in love with the series as I have watched yours stitch up. I think I am going to have to have a look for them now. Oh the hardship....lol.
heheheh love your comment think I would be a blimp without the walking .. I just put on pounds every time you post a scrummy pudding heheheh ... ooooo can't think where you could walk to as not knowing the geography of your pad very well .. it would be a bit too far to walk to mine ...lol and wet ... love your October tooooo :) take care love mouse xxx
Congrats on another CJC finish!
I wouldn't mind visiting Branson myself, but it is a little far from Seattle. :)
October is another gorgeous finish. Your pies looks gorgeous too.
i'm reading this right after breakfast and your pie is looking yummy.
I love the October LHN sampler, i'm totally with you, it all fits together, i love the colors and everything.
Have a nice weekend,
Hugs Yvon.
Wow pie and so many finishes! You are amazing! I just love the patterns you choose. Rose
very nice piece. You pie looks so yummy. Why do I love sweets so much? lol
that pie looks rather scrummy.
love the stitching
Nice fall finish! I haven't had dinner yet and that pie doesn't help!!! I had tons of raspberries this year, that most went to waste. Would have made a nice pie, I'm sure!
Love your October LHN Shari!!! It turned out beautifully. The pie looks so yummy I could go right through the screen! LOL
Hugs,
Sue
Cute finish!
Congrats on the walking.
That pie looks really good.
Great job on your walking challenge, Shari--it's really amazing how it adds up when you walk every day. Your little October piece is so sweet and oh, that pie!! I'm sure it was amazing :)
I love the look of the raspberry cream pie - scrumptious!. I love your walking ticker - I have taken up swimming laps, I might start counting my laps to take a trip somewhere.
I love your stitching, too, what is the name of the design? I would love to stitch it someday - add to my very extensive to do/WIP pile! lol
Oh, that is beautiful & the pie looks yummy!
