Christmas Dinner Celebration

It was my work Christmas Dinner Celebration tonight. This will be my 4th Christmas with my employer. They reserve dinner at a restaurant in Kitchener, Ontario called Verses. It is a church that was renovated into a restaurant.

This view is inside the restaurant looking at the front window (same ones above).




Food is excellent, service is terrific. We look forward to going here every year at Christmas.

Happy Dance

I finally stitched the top closed on my Needlebook. I kept putting it off because I wasn't sure if I wanted to add something to the inside of the covers. I was tired of seeing it not finished in my cross stitch case, so I decided to just finish it.

Just Nan and Lynne Nicoletti stash

I stopped by my LNS today to pick up a pre-order of Just Nan's 2012 Gingerbread Mouse (reprint).






As I was leaving Wilma showed me a Christmas Envelope by Lynne Nicoletti. I was in a hurry to pick up my son so I asked her to put it aside and I will buy it on Tuesday night (Stitcher's Club). I will post a photo next week.

Here is the last TUSAL for 2013. I have added the rest of my ORTS to the clear Christmas ornament (I will add the more throughout December).
