SUPPER CLUB - Sunday, Jan. 21st
Posted: Sun Jan 21, 2024 4:06 am
Good morning,
We aren't nearly as chilly as they'd originally predicted. 39* instead of 23* is quite an improvement! But I guess some serious rain is on its way. Being from PNW, we're used to rain, but we get it a little at a time throughout the year. Here in Texas, it comes all at once and then flooding happens. Houston actually gets more annual rainfall than Seattle.
CAROL - I'm so glad you had such a good time at Road. And to meet up with an old friend was a double blessing! I hope you can keep in touch after this. I read an article about quilting friends in different states who designated a once a month sewing day - they were in their own homes but sewed, texted, and at the end of the day had a glass of wine together over the phone and talked about their projects. It kept them close. And yes, Bob is the one I made the Bigfoot/trees quilt for for his new RV which is now his only home. You have a good memory! He does intend to eventually buy a "2-bedroom house with a 9-bay garage" in the Portland area to settle close to his son. But for now, he's traveling.
BECCA - so nice of you to share your windfall of fabric! I'm sure your friend will make good use of it. Frankie will be walking by summer when you get to see her again.
LORI - nice to have a relaxation day now and then, especially after a big event like R2C. Actually, I'm thinking we might have an easier time when Baby starts walking. Maybe not so much lifting and carrying. But still dancing!
We never had our BBQ pork sandwiches last night since we ate "lupper" with Bob. I had a burger and the guys had reubens made with brisket. (we ARE in Texas!). So tonite - the plan is those sandwiches and a salad.
What's YOUR plan?

. His Abuela (Gramma in Spanish) watched him at his house this last week because Kevin and Maria went to Vegas, I haven't asked yet how that went. She's an awesome Gramma though so I bet he's a little more spoiled LOL and Matthew too 
what are you going to make with your fabric?
