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…

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…

The Hamburger Helper Cheerios NASCAR Guy….
Today’s Fortune: You will have an unusual experience. My fortune was right again. Last week, my Mom made something called “Hamburger Helper.” That is a thing that comes in a box, and is supposed to help your hamburger. It was not very helpful, because it was not very good. It comes in lots of flavors, but this one was called “Beef Pasta”. My mom makes something from scratch that she calls “Beef Noodle” that is much better. But Hamburger Helper does have something that Mom doesn’t. A cool box. This box had a picture of a Cheerios NASCAR guy on…

My hard work pays off….
Today’s Fortune: Your hard work is about to pay off. My fortunes are always right. Today is no different. My hard work paid off in a big way! I took yesterday off from blogging. I was just too tired. Yesterday we had a thing called “Daylight Savings Time”. Daylight Savings Time is supposed to give you an extra hour of daylight. As far as I can tell, we didn’t get an extra hour of anything. Instead, we lost an hour of sleep, which made us all feel tired and cranky. Mom says it takes a day or two to adjust…

I Get Creative…..
Today’s Fortune: Your artistic talents win the approval and applause of others. I sure hope this fortune is right. I have a lot riding on it. My girlfriend Dharma will be here sometime next week, and I am very excited about that. She is coming to visit as part of the sock monkey exchange student program called “TSM.” That stands for Traveling Sock Monkeys. We will be sending ValenTina to California, and Dharma will be coming here from Connecticut, which sounds like a pretty bad deal for California. My friend SassylePoof! will be going to stay at Dharma’s house, and…
