Today is my DS and DDIL's 14th wedding anniversary. And guess which mom forgot to send a card!! Darn me! (oh well. They still like me better than The Other Mom.
)) ) I guess it will be a gushy text this year. We have no vehicle until Friday night, so going out to buy, let alone mail a card isn't in the cards. (haha - little pun for your amusement)Today I plan to start cutting out my bicycle quilt. It's 60x80" and the top half of the quilt is simply background. The bottom half is a pieced bike (with basket of flowers on front) that is nearly life-sized. Should be an interesting undertaking and keep me off the streets for a while.
BECCA - So happy to hear your DH is having some good days. Family (most of it, anyway) is always good therapy! Your recipe sounds delicious. I am going to try to remember to write it down.
JANA - thanks for the quilt advice. I have the Radiant Star book and my neighbor just sent me photos of the cover and fabric requirements. I'm going to put you on speed dial when I get this project started!
IRISH - glad you and Jim had such a 'profitable' trip to Joann's! He may have forgotten a lot of things but he hasn't forgotten that you are a quilter! New England is a tough team to beat. Good luck with that! In the Dallas/Green Bay game, on TV just before your Steelers last Sunday, the guy who made the winning field goal for Green Bay was from right here in Georgetown, TX and probably grew up an avid Cowboy fan! Interesting trivia.
CHICKIE - Glad the ice didn't cause you much headache. The cedars here give off that explosion of pollen and even fooled one of the locals. She said she saw one do that and thought there was a fire and almost called 911. Enjoy your "sea-fare" because the ban will be reinstated soon! As soon as I get home!
Well, my plan was to make a crockpot of pinto beans today. But our friends who are hosting at the campground 7 miles away, needed to borrow our crockpot for a big event they are going to tonite. She also borrowed our next door friends' slow cooker. So we're going to grill burgers tonite, I think. At least that was Bill's request. He can be fickle so it could always change. Especially if the rain clouds open up. Then we'll go to Plan B. Which, at this point, doesn't exist yet.
Hope y'all have a Plan A, B, or C ready!
