OT: moving to TN!

Alice wrote,

Thanks so much, Alice! I'll definitely give you a call. We travel down there so often that I'm quite familiar with the JoAnn Etc, Hancocks, and Best Sewing. (I bought my sewing/embroidery machine from them a few years ago). I would love to find some Mom and Pop fabric shops in the area. Maybe you know of some?

We lived in Clinton about 15 years ago. My husband graduated from a preaching school in the Karns area. We loved TN so much that we've always wanted to move back. My husband now has a secular job and preaches for smaller churches to help them out.

Well, better get back to work. It's 9 pm here and we're loading the U-Haul in the dark!

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm seafood!! Very popular here. A lot of the casinos have seafood buffets, too.

Modern refrigeration is wonderful. I have a goiter because I grew up in western Pennsylvania before refrigerated trucks and iodized salt. Now, I can hardly get enough seafood.

Well, we do get some good food - that's certainly a perk. I'll share if we ever make it there.

He's never really had any interest in me sewing for him, because I'm an amatuer and he thinks it wouldn't look "right" especially since I don't have a serger. But I just had a revelation - he likes to buy Corporate Casual type shirts with fish patterned fabric....not always an easy find right off the rack. So, I am thinking that I might get him interested in a shirt if I can find a print that he likes.

Just don't tell him, till he asks where you bought it all ;) That'll surprise his little socks off.

Ooohhh, I bet he'd *love* the one with deep-sea fish. Marlins, tuna, swordfish, what's not to like??? :-)

Since you ladies are SOOOO good at finding stuff, I've been hunting for this T-shirt to get for a friend for years. It's a picture of two fishermen sitting in a boat, and you see the water underneath the boat and all the fish have moved away from underneath the both and are crowded on the sides of the picture, and one of the fishermen is saying something to the effect of there not being any fish there. I have tried a lot of different ways of hunting for it -- fishing t-shirt, etc. -- and haven't come up with anything. Or maybe it's just out of print, although I'm positive I saw it in a catalog within the last five years. I have searched through countless pages of T-shirts on the web and not found it, and I can't remember where I saw the shirt originally -- it could have been a general catalog place or a craft place or a camping place, but I am just *dying* to find it to give to my friend, which I was going to do for a retirement present (I had to settle for a bumper sticker that said, "Fish tremble at the mention of my name," that I got from some place like Campmor or Cheaper than Dirt, but I would have rather had the T-shirt).

If anybody can think of any alternatives to search for or, better yet, might have seen it somewhere, I would be eternally grateful LOL.

I like this one, but I'm pretty sure I'd need more than a yard.
