In my part of the world we say you are a fool if your passion for a pursuit overcomes all practical sense. I am a stitching fool, and I stitch foolishness.

Going Fourth

 We've had our traditional viewing of an old History Channel documentary, The Revolution, today, which I believe that we're now going to follow up with Les Mis. Somehow that seems fitting this year.

And I did my three hours on Carmen--with plenty of breaks. That got me to this point:

Hopefully I can finish this partial bit and that will leave me only one more section of framework. Then I can add the flowers and be done with this band.

Meanwhile, my friend Susan found out what Tomato Blood is. It's regular Heinz catsup with a special label for Halloween since a lot of people use catsup to look like blood on their Halloween costumes. Now I can't figure out if it was on sale because they're doing an early Halloween special--or because they found a couple of cases left over from Halloween in the warehouse.

Needless to say, I do not plan to purchase any.

      Can you imagine opening the refrigerator and seeing something called Tomato Blood on the shelf? Especially at someone else's house? Ick! And thank you for the kind words about Carmen.
