Seems this has been another week of not getting a lot accomplished, but still busy all week. Last weekend and into Monday was the Backyard Bird Count. I did have some fun taking some photos and reporting my counts every day for the four day time frame. My Sweet Babboo kept the feeder full so …

Low Volume Quick Quilt
These pretty pastels were part of a box of fabrics that a friend of mine was destashing. I thought they were lovely, soft and perfect for a little quilt for charity. I originally planned to write this up for a guest blogger post for another blogging event, but I changed my mind and decided to …
A Table for Fat Tuesday
It's Mardi Gras today! The last day of the Carnival season. Of course, this year there hasn't been much party time, so a festive table will help bring a bit of cheer this week. We are staying home more than ever now, so some color on a rainy day is nice. Gold, green and purple …
Sunday Conversation
It has been cold most of the week, rainy for the past couple of days, with just one warm day to go for a walk outside last Tuesday. We took more boxes of books to the sale site, then did a walk around the outside loop at Flat Rock Park. It was hard to find …
Piddling Around
This past week has been a lot of piddling around, and not finishing much. I've done a few embroidery motifs using the new cards purchased for my 20+ year old Brother Pacesetter machine. I showed this one last week, as it was stitching, here it is completed. I'll add two more to this one for …
Snacking Foods for an Appetizer Meal
Time again to break out the appetizers for a heavy hors d'oeuvre menu! The Super Bowl comes at dinner time this year, a perfect time for finger foods. Even if you aren't going to watch the game from Tampa, you still might enjoy a finger food meal for the Puppy Bowl, or perhaps a Sunday …
Quilting To The Nines
When I left off this project last week, I had put on a pieced border, then removed it. The border was just too much white on the edges and I really didn't like it. After I picked out the stitches and took it off, I loaded on the frame again and got ready to begin …
Some Valentine Ideas
Well, I cannot decide if it was bad news day or good news day yesterday. My dental appointment that I have dreaded for days was postponed due to snow. We didn't get any snow at our place, but apparently the area where my dentist lives did. So, all that anxiety will now be postponed to …
February in the Garden
Wow, first let me say thank you for the tremendous response to yesterday's post. I really am grateful for your feedback and support. For those who are new to the blog, I mentioned the Safelight Project, click on that link to see last year's project start, and use the category on the sidebar to see …
Making Progress on Projects
I've noticed that my blogging is not as prolific as it once was, and I am posting fewer times in a week. So many other bloggers I read have just stopped posting altogether, so I am not spending as much time reading blogs, and I miss that. I miss catching up on what projects are …
