My favorite gift I gave was the snuggie-knockoff I made for Wee Brither. It came out far better than I expected:

As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.

Last night 'twas witching Hallowe'en
Dearest; an apple russet- brown
I pared, and thrice above my crown
Whirled the long skin; they watched in keen;
I flung it far; they laughed and cried me shame
Dearest, there lay the letter of your name!

Ta, Witchy.... But credit where credit is due; the sewing machine did all the work. All I really did was work the scissors and pins... :wink:

Stop by my place, Andy. I keep a stack of permits out in the shed, right next to the wood chipper and the man-sized compost bin.... Image

Every time you say wood chipper, I think of Fargo and that shower of gore coming out the end of it! :twisted:
No wonder your property looks so good, though - all that special compost! :lol: :lol:

I've been a big fan of Espoma organic products for many years now, but I no longer need to purchase these two:

I am way, way jealous of your Frankie. I actually have an Uncle Frankie, but even if I cut his head off and gave him a flat-top, he wouldn't look half as cool as yours.

Nice sig-pic, Witchy... :wink:

these busts were going for about $200 in resin when they first came out, now there are many knock offs from China. My wife got this one for about $70 in vinyl from China, I thought it was going to be soft and possibly warped out of shape, but it is really hard, great detail, strong, and worth the money.
