Welcome to ChitChat!

From the past. I saw this magazine in the store. 50 years since Charlie's Angels began. I was but a youngster. It's hard to belive that Farrah was only on the show for one season, and that's all it took to make her famous.

She did two serious roles that have stayed in my memory. Both TV movies were true stories. One was portraying a US postal service worker who shot her 3 kids because her love interest (played by Ryan O'Neal) did not want kids. The youngest daughter died. Her oldest daughter survived. Her son was paralyzed from the waist down. She went to prison. The prosecutor adopted the 2 kids.

Her other role was portraying Francine Hughes in "The Burning Bed." She won an Emmy (I think) for that role. Francine had battered wife syndrome, and she killed her abusive husband by burning down the house while he was passed out drunk. The jury found her not guilty. She had 3 kids.

Sorry this is so long. I admired Farrah's acting talent.

Today is Friday ………………………………………………… Good Morning, MJ 💕

Good Friday morning everyone. So they named the storm Fern? I didn't know they named snow storms! This winter is like the ones I remember when I was a kid growing up here in Northern Indiana on the stateline of MIchigan. Michigan always did a better job plowing their roads. Today is back stitching as I finished another quarter section of my spring cardinals. I am so, so loving this pattern and wonder why it took me so long to pull it out. Tonight will be our stuffed peppers, pure winter comfort food! Have a fabulous Friday. Stay safe, stay warm, and enjoy the show Fern is going to put on.

Please stay safe, stay warm, and let your biggest problem be stitching errors instead of icy/snowy roads. Frogging is possible… but so is coffee and starting fresh ☕🐸

Our website is open 24/7 no matter the weather! Whether you’re starting a new WIP, stocking up on floss (hello DMC 310), or planning a little weekend stitch-cation, we’ve got you covered. No snow boots required! Happy Stitching everyone and stay warm and safe 💙

Good Morning


Leviticus 9: 18 - 24


18 Then he slaughtered the ox and the ram,
the sacrifice of peace offerings which
was for the people; and Aaron's sons
brought the blood to him, and he
sprinkled it around on the altar.


19 As for portions of fats from the ox
and from the ram, the fat tail, the fat covering,
the kidneys, and the lode of the liver,


20 they now placed the portions of fat on
the breasts; and he offered them up
in smoke on the altar.


21 But the breasts and the right thigh
Aaron presented as a wave offering
before the Lord, just as Moses had commanded.


22 Then Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people
and blessed them, and he stepped down after
making the sin offering, the burnt offering, and
the peace offerings.


23 And Moses and Aaron went into the tent meeting.
When they came out and blessed the people, the
glory of the Lord appeared to all the people.


24 Then fire went out from the Lord and consumed the
burnt offering and the portions of fat on the altar;
and when all the people saw it, they shouted and
fell face downward.


Have a blessed day!

I was just wondering how many of you are going to get the visit from Fern. West central Ohio is my home. Powdery snow is to be our gift from Fern. No predictions on the amount, only that it will begin to snow Saturday afternoon and continue until 1:00-2:00 Monday morning. Plus we will stay in the deep freeze temperature wise. This is the first real winter we’ve had since we moved here 5 years ago. I grew up here, so I’m glad to see it.

I am almost finished stitching this and I love it. However, there is one symbol, looks like a fat L, that is not listed in the legend. It is on the coat (at the top) and the top of Santas trousers. Can anyone tell me what color this is supposed to be?

Good morning all
