FOR TODAY … 8 July, 2009
Outside My Window… blue skies, cool air, lawn crew.
I am thinking… that I have too much to do today!
I am thankful for… today being my last workday this week.
From the kitchen… boiled artichokes last night and ate leaf by leaf, hubby’s first time with. Served with a Caesar salad, baguette, Havarti cheese and a Michigan Rose’ wine. Yeah… it was good!
I am wearing… a dark red blouse with velvet trim, black slacks, black sandals.
I am creating… finished my last practice crochet piece… another potholder LOL!
I am going… to slow things down a bit. We’ve had so much going on!
I am reading… latest issue of Victoria magazine.
I am hoping… that my feet which sunburned so badly two weeks ago will finally heal up; I want to tan the rest of me LOL!
I am hearing… lawnmowers outside.
Around the house… the new entry door should arrive within the week; housework is caught up.
One of my favorite things… when a new recipe works out and makes me look good LOL! I have one to post…
A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week… me me me. It’s all me time.
My Picture Thought … my new toy, a Singer 301! I can’t wait for hubby to replace the cord; all the rest looks to be in terrific condition. The brackets in front were actually from a detachable cradle that I’m glad came with it, since I just picked up a sewing desk also for this machine for $9.95.
This is the “big sister” to the Singer Featherweight. The big attraction, other than that it works like a horse, is that the feed dogs drop. I’ll be open to free-motion quilt with this!
