Scrap Happy Girl

I'm sliding in at the last few hours to say Happy New Year! May the new year Bless you and your family's in every way A

Hiding out is my name not eating eggs, sausage, biscuits and syrup and all the other stuff is my game and my little rap it a bit lame but you like me any way and I'm done rapping today Ok I'll stop, is that better? Not much going on today just hanging out with clipie . Tomorrow at an un earthly hour of 7:30am est we will put the car in the shop. So that translates into I will probably wont blog early. What is it with mechanics why do they get up before the sun? Moving on not much to tell you about other than snow we may get to see some today 20% chance! And tomorrow the same, nothing says Christmas like snow. Happy New Year too all of you! blessings A

We have been on the car hunt. A so not fun car hunt that turned into an suv hunt that has turned into a" Oh my Lord do they really expect me to pay this much for a thing with wheels"? Seriously I'm way out of touch when it comes to car pricing. They pretty much want 20,000 for anything will seat 4, I'm just shocked. So that has led to can we keep fixing the car for a while? I what I really mean is can we use it till the wheels fall off? Big mama is staying in the family for a while but it looks like the "other woman" is going to be seeing greener pastures as we pre pair and save money for a new car. Be praying for Clipie he has decided to sell her (the vette )....I'm shocked and don't really know how to react. I guess it's time to do those car pages of him and her. I have absolutely no projects to share with you of late. I haven't done a project since Saturday. I'm itching to use my ds but there is no time to spare with all of the ...

So how was your Christmas? mine was great no snow for the second year in a row so I was a bit disappointed with that. Other than that Santa was good to me. I did get the design studio for the bug and quite a few clothes. I have a couple of things to take back today for my mom and later we are going to put my car in the shop it is very sick we may need to go look at new cars..... ugh I wasn't wanting to do this for a while. But you can only sink so much into a car that had 109,000 miles on it and it's 8 years old..... yes big mama is getting up there in years and I may halfta giver her up. Since it's only the second car I have ever had in my life it's sorta big. Other than that things are same ol same o kinda thing. blessings A

Finding your place is sometimes easy, like when you are at a wedding reception you don't decide where to sit they have a seating arrangement and you sit, no choice in the matter, you just automatically you have a place to be. We also have our favorite places to sit whether they be in in your lazy boy chair or on the arm of the couch its comfortable to you and you alone. Not many will ever understand why I love sitting with one leg tucked up under me at the end of the couch, (just like my Aunt Jane) . We all have a natural place's in our own families youngest, oldest, tallest ,smallest. Finding your place in the world outside of family and work sometimes is challenging. In December of 03 I had a place in this world, it was in a small suburb of a large Midwestern city. It was not a large life but it was full and one I had spent 30 years in building. I was a daycare teacher for 12 years, I was active in Girl Scouts, had wonderful neighbors/friends, I was a sitter for the Mops...

tick tick tick tick tick tick Welcome I'm Angie Wallace and this is 60 seconds with a scrapper Do you remember the beginning to 60 minutes? I do, when it came on, it meant it was time to turn the channel to the Muppet show. I feel like the past few days all I can hear is that clock tick tick ticking away counting down till Christmas. At last I only have cookies to make, still need to make the cranberry sauce and cinnamon bread. I'm playing the part of the chicken on the sauce, I'm a bit intimidated by the cran, how do I know that 1/2 of them have popped? I'm all done shopping although that may not stop me from wondering out into the madness to go over to Kohl's later to check out the Rachel ray knife set that is on a huge sale. Cause my Chicago steel knifes keep rusting and my Henkels (sp??) are never very sharp and yes I know how to sharpen the knifes. In other exciting news Mr Cippie is in the dog house. It all started when he asked me why I had to go to walmar...

Cranberry sauce 2 bag o cran some cran apple or cran grape juice 1/2 cup of sugar 1 tbsp of honey 1 can mandarin oranges drained and cut at least in half Do y'all know how to make cranberry sauce? ( I know probably a silly question) I have made it twice the first time it went in the trash, the second time... well lets just say it was ok but not great. This is a new recipe I sorta put together after looking a many recipes on the food network a mish mash of every one's ideals. The big changes are boiling the cranberry's in juice not water and adding honey. Wish me luck! I'll report back soon, lets hope the third time is the charm. I have been making cheese balls and will be cooking at least two dishes a day for the next few days until Christmas. I will mostly freeze the goodies to keep the clipie from eating all of the tasty foods. Which is my of telling you I must end my blog session to go cook! Blessings A 6 days till Christmas 3 gifts left, to get! I can see th...
