Going Dark

I have four papers to write in about the next four weeks, and doubtless I will do some sort of crafting between now and then (I made a pair of fingerless gloves in the last week alone!) I should really focus on the school work. At least until December 12th; hence the "going dark" warning for the title. Which is really an arbitrary date; I may pop up before then. 

Speaking of going dark... this just keeps getting darker.

In the meanwhile, the vanilla is still brewing away, there's Thanksgiving shenanigans abounding (I forgot the eggs for the custard for the pie at the store today - thank God there is a store, and eggs to buy from it), I'm in charge of costuming upwards of 20 participants for the Christmas Eve drama - some of which are a vanguard of angels. Vanguard, yup, you read that right. And I'm finally quilting Ordinary Time.  And maybe I'll make it to the December meeting of the Pittsburgh Modern Quilt Guild the first weekend of the month? We'll see. Depends on how much work I get done.
