Happy Thanksgiving in the U.S.

It's almost Thanksgiving here in the United States. What better was to celebrate than with a Stamp and Create Product Spotlight on Food.  I'm being a bit cruel with my food image here. But isn't Tom's Plea so cute?

I used High Hopes Tom's Plea image. I also used Basic Grey Pyrus paper, May Arts Crochet Ribbon and Crown Oval Nestabilities

Honu-Hawaiian for Sea Turtle

Hi everyone- I'm still on holiday. I am having a lovely time. I start each day with a bike ride for some exhaustive exercise. Then it's been off to some beach, or boat trip to go snorkeling. Yesterday the highlight was seeing an eel cruising around for some breakfast. Normally I just see eels peeking out of some coral. The coolest thing was that I saw the eel susse out an octapus which then quickly jetted out from its hiding spot, followed by lots of ink squirted into the eels face. It was the National Geographic/Discovery tv channel live! I couldn't help but think of Finding Nemo and the little octapus who said "You made me Ink".

I've been seeing lots of my favourite sea animal, the Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle, otherwise known as a Honu in Hawaiian. Here is a shot I got with my underwater digital camera (my old cannon digital camera in an underwater housing).

Aloha!
