Welcome to Birth of a Notion a blog that has a smattering of life but mostly a blog about the art of all things Letter writing. Fountain pens, Fine stationery (oh my favorite) and things pen pal related. You can check the blog wrap and the section that says We Support for Letter writing clubs and more information on all things letter.

Saturday Nine #3


Saturday 9: Leaving on a Jet Plane


1. When was the last time you jetted away for the holidays?

Honestly? Never. I have always been in Minnesota for the holidays. It would be nice to celebrate them somewhere else. I would love a colonial Christmas in VA.

2. What is your fondest birthday memory?

That is a hard one alot of my B-days mesh together. But I think if I had to pick one it would be when I was 7, my best friend at the time gave me a teddy bear wrapped in purple wrapping paper. and I still have it.

3. What names do you go by?

Well my common name, my nickname (which I don't share on cyberspace sorry) and of course Ambrosia, Lady Ambrosia and Lady A.

4. What do you look forward to most in the next six weeks?

Snuggling up in the house with some hot cocoa. And maybe watching some neat Christmas History shows on the History Channel. Is that Sad?

5. Where is your least favorite place to be, and why?

The Doctors office. Nuff said.

6. Have you ever had a scary stalker type?

Yes I have. And I am pretty sure I still do. One of the reasons I no longer use my real name or nickname in cyberspace. Creepy lady.

7. What is your favorite holiday tradition?

Fudge. Who doesn't love fudge?

8. What are two activities you do after eating Thanksgiving Dinner?

Turkey coma, and leftovers.

9. What did your family do for Thanksgiving when you were a kid? Do you still do it? If not explain why.

We all gathered together at whomevers house was hosting it (usually Grandma) and ate. Most years I had two dinners. Sadly we no longer gather in big gatherings. When my Great Grandma passed away on one side of the family no one decided to get together anymore. And on the otherside of the family its been my Grandmother passing that stopped it. But we had a small gathering this year.

I've never heard it described as "turkey coma" before. But it is dead on! Great line...

I was very pleased that we did not have a lot of leftovers this year.

Have a great Saturday!

I just LOVE fudge. Yum!

It is sad when traditions fade.

I understand about the crazies following you... frightening!
