an overscheduled november




My days between now and Thanksgiving will be, to take a line from Bill Watterson, just packed. In light of that, my posts for the rest of the month may be quite skimpy.

For now though, I thought I'd share a couple of things from the ol' vault - two collages I made a while back from vintage advertising bits. They were part of a larger mass of handmade postcards I sent to Joshua (or rather Joshua's held mail) while he was away on a trip. They seem appropriate for this time right before the holiday onslaught when everyone (possibly including me) seems to be thinking about food.

For Thanksgiving this year I'm pretty eager to try the Nutmeg-Maple Cream Pie from the Smitten Kitchen, probably baked in large shallow tart shell. But I really shouldn't even be thinking about that until I get at least the first half of my to-do list in the can. Sigh.
