Happy Sock Monkey Halloween!!!
Today’s Fortune: A project you have in mind will soon gain momentum. That fortune has already come true! Today is Halloween, and Mom had to get up very early this morning to make us some Halloween costumes, because she “procrastinated”. That means she got busy doing other stuff, and put our costumes off until the last minute. Even though they were done on short notice, I think they turned out very good! I am spending Halloween as a Ninja Vampire! Mom made my cape out of polar fleece, and lined it with some red cotton. She also made me a…

A Tiny Rock and a Great Big Boat!
Today’s Fortune: Others admire your independence. I think that fortune is probably true. I don’t see too many sock monkeys out doing stuff like I do, and people come up to me all the time to say “Hi.” Lots of people said “hi” to me while we were in Plymouth, which is where we went after we finished our witch project. Plymouth is where the Pilgrims first landed when they came to America. I was very excited to get to see Plymouth Rock. I expected a giant boulder. Instead, it was really tiny. I was a little bit disappointed to…

Felted Witches and Sock Monkey Costumes!
Today’s Fortune: Your flair for the creative takes an important place in your life. I guess whoever writes my cookie fortunes has heard about the witches and the sock monkey costume we have been working on. While we were visiting in Boston, we went to Auntie Kate’s yarn store. It is called The Creative Stitch. I don’t usually like to go to the yarn store much, because it can get kind of boring, but this time, Mom and the aunties were signed up for a “needle felting” class. They thought they were going to make pumpkins, but when we got…

Dining with Dharma at the Northampton Brewery!
Today’s Fortune: You will soon gain something you have been wanting. Well, I guess that fortune was true, because I have been wanting to see my darling Dharma for a while, and I got to spend a whole day with her! After we finished shopping at Webs, we all went to lunch together. We had to take two cars, because we couldn’t all fit into one. We went to lunch at the Northampton Brewery Bar and Grille. A nice lady was walking by and offered to take our picture out in front. That’s Auntie Pam, Austin, Uncle Don, Auntie Brenda,…

How to Carve a Sock Monkey Jack-O-Lantern Pumpkin!!!
Today’s Fortune: This weekend will afford you personal opportunity. This fortune was so true! Yesterday, I did not get to blog, because Dad had to install Windows 7 on mine and Mom’s computer. Not getting to blog afforded me the personal opportunity of carving a sock monkey pumpkin, though, so it was a good thing after all! I will get back to telling more about my New England trip tomorrow, but today I have to talk about pumpkins! Last week, Mom took me shopping for a pumpkin. She said I could make a “jack-o-lantern”. That is where you carve a…

Darling Dharma and our visit to Webs!!
Today’s Fortune: A thrilling time is ahead. Be on your guard. That fortune does not sound good. My fortunes are almost always right, so made sure I was on my guard before we left the hotel room, because I knew I was going to have a thrilling time! We drove to Sylvester’s Restaurant in Northampton, MA. I was too excited to even do a restaurant review, because I was going to see my darling Dharma again! She was waiting there with Walter, and she looked even more beautiful than I remembered! I was so happy to see her, I couldn’t…

Forts and Foliage….
Today’s Fortune: Seek out the significance of your problem at this time. That is just a silly fortune, because I don’t have any problems that I know of. I may have to send this one back. I’m not sure how to get it back in the cookie, though. After Auntie Beth left to go back to Connecticut, Auntie Kate said that she would take us to the beach. I was very excited, because I had never been to a beach before. The one we went to was Nantasket Beach. It was not like the beaches I have seen on TV.…
