SUPPER CLUB - Monday, March 29
Posted: Mon Mar 29, 2021 7:18 am
Good morning,
We're 34' here this morning, but dry and clear! Yesterday was wet and wild. It was a day to get cozy inside. We have the bathroom ready for its new floor and after that I worked on my scrappy project for a few hours. Hope to finish that top today. I think it will be for donation, but we'll see . . . .I really like how it's turning out. Selfish me just may want to keep it!
MARY ROSE - when you wind your bobbins, do you have a winder gizmo or are you doing it by hand? I have most DMC colors and most are on bobbins and filed into plastic cases. The winder-upper fits on the edge of the case and it turns the bobbin with a little hand crank. Goes quickly.
BECCA - wise of you to not sew in the storm. We don't get many T-storms here like in much of the country, but when we do, I unplug my machine and iron. Housing here is also going through the roof. In the past 5 yrs so many new developments have been built within 1/2 mile of us and the first homes were priced about $550K. Now the same homes are starting - STARTING - "in the $700+ range. I don't know how people can afford them. I'm going to sound like my parents when I say I miss the old days when we were surrounded by thick woods. It was so peaceful and quiet.
TINA- Well, if you can't get out and enjoy your trailer yourself, at least you can "play" with it, sort of, by making new curtains. Hope you get some quiet sewing time today.
JANA - I do remember Adam-12 on TV and also that Malloy never let Reed drive. lol! How much longer until Sarah completes her studies? Any more talk of Daniel moving to UT? Aren't you glad your new bedroom set is just hanging out in Illinois instead of in the line of ships waiting to go through the Suez Canal??!
LORI - don't forget to share a photo of the tablerunner! And wood was our first choice when re-doing the stairway. Until we saw the cost. We decided to go with carpet. It should last 6 or 7 years and we'll be ready for new carpet throughout the house by then anyway.
Supper tonite - we have options. It's going to be a busy day but if I cook, it will be bow tie pasta/bacon/brussels sprouts/alfredo/parmesan one pan dish. Kind of like Jana's one pot keilbasa/broccoli/pasta dish. But I may just reheat some chili from the freezer and have it over baked potatoes. We'll see how the day goes.
What are your choices for tonite?
