SUPPER CLUB - Thursday Aug 3rd

Post by purrfect-lady » Thu Aug 03, 2023 8:22 am

Good morning,

I'm late today. Sew-in ran late for me and then I had to meet Walking Lori, shower, and eat. But I'm here now!

Yesterday was busy with piecing batting, quilting and binding one donation quilt. Today, more of the same only will be working on a smaller quilt - only 60" square. A postage stamp quilt. Yesterday was my string quilt. Both were posted in Photos back when I finished the tops. I actually have made 3 postage stamps and two strings. These quilts were made using those scrap pieces as jump scraps or "leader/enders" but now that I have an automatic thread cutter, I don't do that much anymore, though I probably should.

CAROL - I am down to stems and seeds for jam jars, so I'll be using whatever I have left. I give about 75% of my jam away and no one seems inclined to return my jars.

BECCA - I know how you miss your beautiful woodsy home. I'm already heartsick over the thought of Vicki's property being cleared and that's not even my property! They want ours, too, but no way will I sell. In the future I know we'll have to sometime, but not today!

LORI - Whenever I see Cheesecake Factory I can't help but think of Big Bang Theory! :lol: I posted a picture of Catholes yesterday. The orange ones don't show up well but they are there!

Well, I wasn't in the mood for a big dinner last night so we had grilled cheese instead. And grapes. So tonite will be the chops. In fact, I think I'll put them into the crockpot instead with some potatoes, onions, carrots, and celery.

What's making your mouth water tonite?

Good really late afternoon from a warm, still sunny, SW Pa....Here it is almost 6:30 and I'm just getting home from a very busy day.....This morning was "shot" day, so I ran to the doctor's, then it was bingo time so my sister scooped me up and after bingo, we had to decide where we were eating....One couple never eats at home and knows all the places from here to kingdom come, I swear...Today, we hit an Italian restaurant and I had lasagna and of course brought home enough for 2 more meals.... Tomorrow is 1st. Friday coffee and donuts (a meet and greet kind of thing), so my sister will be picking me up early and then Baby Girl has an appointment at the beauty shop but we aren't saying it out loud....I've had the carrier in the living room and I put treats in it every once in a while and she loves it but come tomorrow, she'll be hiding under the bed..I'm also getting the car inspected and then tomorrow night, celebrating my sister's closing by going to see her son's band....By the time I get home, I'll be ready to hit the bed for sure....

Mary, I hate to hear about the building that will be happening next door...We have that here and it's just not right...I can't understand how so many people can actually afford all those big time houses that are being built....Plus all the wild life that are being displaced, makes me sad.......
Did have a text, Nick picked up their cat in Atlanta this afternoon, so now we just need to get Trisha over here........

Becca, I'm also sad for you, too many changes in such a short time...I still have "thoughts" about our 1st house, not so much about the one I just left but the big house we started and raised our family in....Lots and lots of good memories....But, I am so happy with my new place, couldn't have been a better decision and in time, I'm sure, you'll feel the same way......

And now, I have to scoot....It's time for Kevin to make his nightly call......

Hoping all had a great day and wishing for a super evening.....

Happy eating...................
