6:07 pm

penquis

1--4--7--1

6:07 pm

hokie carla

found a P6 that was oddly hard for me to see

6:08 pm

penquis

i made a concerted effort to find the four but with no luck...i remember ru saying this morning that he was having trouble finding his last four....

6:08 pm

car.eeyore

Good evening!

6:08 pm

hokie carla

I remember seeing that too but thought he had 4 left that were all 4s

6:08 pm

penquis

i think i am missing a P 7 from the top left if I remember what someone said this morning....

6:08 pm

penquis

hi car....

6:10 pm

hokie carla

yes, that P7 is weird. it's kind of like the P game with the weird name (sounds like urine + where your finger bends). the game sounds like that, not this word.

6:11 pm

hokie carla

car, how goes it? I think you've been busy from what I've seen on your instagram recently.

6:11 pm

penquis

P I G U WW A CC R D L T here....

6:11 pm

penquis

got the P...ty....

6:12 pm

car.eeyore

I'm exhausted, but I realize I took on too much. Going to do the best I can and then regroup at the new year. I'm just one person and I have to remember that!

6:12 pm

hokie carla

I believe you by the amount of cookies I saw!

6:12 pm

penquis

that's what I tell my niece... ;o)

6:12 pm

car.eeyore

LOLOL...I only took pics of a few. I have more. I'm tripping over them.

6:13 pm

car.eeyore

Does she have a shop, pen?

6:13 pm

penquis

no she sells on Facebook....

6:13 pm

hokie carla

do you have a shop or just your own kitchen?

6:13 pm

car.eeyore

Does she have help or is it just her?

6:14 pm

car.eeyore

Just me in my home kitchen.

6:14 pm

penquis

oh just her....

6:14 pm

car.eeyore

How does she do it?!?!? I feel like I am missing something to make this easier!

6:14 pm

hokie carla

chinup not a word

6:15 pm

penquis

she doesn't sleep much this time of year....

6:15 pm

penquis

she also books for Christmas cookies quite early....

6:15 pm

hokie carla

found 3 c's, so now prob missing the same 2 as you, pen

6:16 pm

car.eeyore

I see others and their posts and they make more detailed cookies and seem to have time for their families and everything else they want to do. I am just not figuring this out. I love making the cookies, but I'm not built for this volume.

6:16 pm

penquis

her mother does make some stencils for her occasionally....

6:16 pm

hokie carla

whenever I watch the videos, I'm like just one cookie would take me an hour

6:16 pm

penquis

i hear ya...

6:16 pm

car.eeyore

I did too! My biggest customer placed her order with me in August...and then when I was supposed to be working on those cookies, I was working on fall cookies, and then wedding cookies, and then halloween cookies....it just keeps coming...for which I am grateful...but I don't have time to make more dough!\

6:17 pm

penquis

she works too hard, too...

6:21 pm

car.eeyore

I do take some solace in that it's not just me...but I have to find a manageable balance. For now, head down and just keep at it.

6:21 pm

hokie carla

found my i's!

6:21 pm

penquis

yes, i think my niece says that to herself every year... ;o)

6:23 pm
