What Would You Guess?

Would you ever dream that if you came to my house for a meal, especially a holiday meal . . that we would have no rolls or worse, storebought rolls?

Friday Vince had to run to the store for something . . mainly because it’s impossible for him to stay home for 24 hours.  He has to go somewhere . . every day!  He was only going to the grocery store.  He went to get one thing.  I asked him to get a small can of evaporated milk for me.  I had big cans but no small cans and if he wasn’t going to the store already, I would have just used half of a big can but . . since he was going anyway, I asked him to get me a small can of evaporated milk.

But, he also got rolls.  He said he didn’t know if I was making rolls.  Huh?  How many meals has that husband of mine eaten with me?

Not only that . . my rolls were already made and were sitting on the counter before he ever went to the store!  I made a pan for Christmas Eve, put a pan in the fridge for Christmas Day and put a pan in the freezer for another day.  I’m wondering if secretly, he wasn’t hoping to have storebought rolls instead of homemade rolls.

It’s a good thing he didn’t buy a storebought cake because I had made two cakes that same morning.

Final Stash Report of 2010

Hard for me to believe it’s been a year since we started the 2010 stash reports.  Anyone planning to join in the reporting in 2011?  It will be done the exact same way.   All most of us do is report what we bring in and what we use each week.  No need to know how many total yards are in our stashes.  To those wanting to do stashbusting in 2011 . . good luck!

I doubt I use nearly as much in 2011 as I did in 2010 but I’ll continue my stashbusting efforts.

This week I did get the purple, green and gold top finished so that’s the only yardage I used.  Nothing added.  My final totals for 2010 are:

Used this Week: 8.50 yards
Used year to Date: 572.5 yards
Added this Week: 0 yards
Added Year to Date: 195 yards
Net Used for 2010: 377.5 yards
