Something a little spicy...

This morning, I made BBQ sauce...with garden fresh tomatoes...YUMMY!  I really like it...and with flavors of sweet & spicy who could go wrong!  But now for the clean up...YIKES!

One more thing...

One more thing...here's a pic of what I've been working on lately...it's an afghan for a former co-worker...he and his wife, Amy are expecting their second child.  It's been fun to work on...something a little different has been a welcome change of pace...

Running errands with hubby...

This weekend I ran errands with the hubby...which under any other circumstances isn't a whole lotta fun...except he dropped me off at Crafts Direct in St. Cloud.  They were having a back to school sale which I didn't think would mean anything to me...until I saw this beauty!  I love the paper from Lost & Found...and here its all in one bundle...Need I say more...YUMMY!  Oh, I forgot one little piece of information...it only cost me $11.95, regularly $24.95!! Can't wait to work with it!

Adding to the collection...

So today, I added to the collection of fabrics for the Farmer's Wife quilt; I haven't worked on it for a while...primarily because I wasn't sure on the fabric selection.  I've been eyeing up the Moda collection from Bonnie & Camille...check out the colors...what do you think?  I love the brightness of it...And right now, I'm still undecided.

Any ho, here's the charm pack from the local quilt store....the Moda fabrics are from Love Letters by Laundry Basket Quilts.  As you can see, the two selections are completely different, so you understand why I'm at a standstill with this quilt...oh my gosh...decisions, decisions....

Cindy...this one's for you...

Cindy...this one's for you (smile)...I baked the other day; it's a new recipe I found in one of the several church lady cookbooks, Pecan Pie Bars!  And I will admit that I needed to get rid of everything otherwise I would have ate it all...and I mean all of it...so I sent most of the bars with Darling Hubby for the week and sent the rest home with a friend.  There's isn't anything left...the Weight Watchers gremlin thanks me!  No added calories except for the corner which I needed to taste test...after all, I didn't want to send something that wasn't yummy...right?!

Here's the latest and greatest...

Here's the latest and greatest of the Christmas Rules cross stitch project...Just thought you would be interested in seeing where I am...

Last Thursday...

Last Thursday, I was able to skype with my Oregonian peep! Oh my gosh, how much fun!  We hooked up at 10:30 pm central...yeah, I know...It's a little late, but I haven't been able to connect with her all summer...Life is busy!

We talked/skype'd until 1:00 am...and you are right...I was tired the next day...and yes, it was a crazy day at work for this tired ole hen!

But honestly, it was worth every second...hands down!  Here's what we created in the wee hours of Thursday night/Friday morning...So much fun! Love ya tons!

I think it's a variation of MojoMonday 252...nope, just check the sketch...it is the sketch for this challenge...
