Anyone who's lived with me knows of my ability to create a mess by doing nothing more than breathing. This weekend, I did a great deal more than breathe.
I made a new personal organizer with index cards.
I stirred a fry and baked a pie.
I also started work on Christmas presents. No pics there, obviously.
Needless to say, the apartment is a wreck. I'm glad Ben is so good natured about it all.

What are your Christmas present plans? I'd like also to make my own stuff and have started my first project of creating many attractive jars of prickly pear jam. I want to make my mom a quilt, but I think I would have had to start around about last Christmas. Any suggestions?

Last year, I knitted a couple of blankets, designed and knitted some scarves, bound hand-made journals, sewed a skirt and a couple of pillows, decorated T-shirts, and melted thrift-store records to make fruit bowls. This year I'm trying some new stuff, but since some of the gift recipients read this page I'd be better off not elaborating.
