Picture post

I am again attempting the pictures promised yesterday....we'll see if blogger wants to play today. This is what Karen sent me! Thank you again. Next is my Pecan pie....if anyone wants the recipe just e-mail me. It really is so easy and delicious! And finally is my Daisy by Nora Corbett. I actually have more done....The fabric is not coming out well in the picture...IRL it's a beautiful soft blue and gold by Silkweaver one of their Solos. Thanks for looking and visiting me!!! I really do appreciate it!!!

I am grateful that blogger wanted to play today.......

Where to begin....

This posting has been running around in my head for several days and only now did I find the time to sit down and write it!!!! My MIL is still here so between work and company my blog and such has suffered. We are having fun though! Last week we saw Tony Bennett and he was fabulous! And then last night we saw Andrea Bocelli!!! I really had high expectations but was a wee bit disappointed in the show! He had guests and did mostly opera till the last two songs. My hubby loved it and believe me his voice was spectacular but I would have preferred his other works more.....I may still get the new cd. I am really enjoying her visit and I know that hubby is as well being the Italian boy that he is!!!! They leave on tuesday and will be missed!!!!

Now on to what has been running around in my head.....yes my head is at times a strange and dark sometimes magical place but for todays purpose it is filled with gratitude and sheer joy!!!! First to Karen of Gathering Thoughts thank you so very much!!!! She RAK'd me with selections off of my wishlist! I am in awe! Here is what she sent.... well it seems that blogger doesn't want to play today. She sent me a book of poems by e.e.cummings and Spring Fairy Spirit by PR designs!!!!! I really wanted to post a picture as well as a picture of the Pecan Pie I made for Thanksgiving. I will try again at the end to post a picture..... thank you so very much Karen! An e-mail is coming your way!!!

Next I had a grand adventure last saturday with Margaret of Stitch or No Stitch!!! We met up with Deb of Lavendar Rose Ramblings at Stitcher's Paradise!!!! What fun we had!!! Deb is just like I imagined her...funny, smart and totally fabulous!!!!! We talked and talked and talked some more! They helped me pick out fabric for my January 1st start! We popped over to Starbucks at B&N bookstore and had a bite to eat and talked like old friends!!!! It was truly amazing to meet Deb!!!! And in May are planning a stitch-in at my house!!!!! Since that's the one thing we didn't get a chance to do while she was visiting!!!! And the joy on her face when talking about her new grandson was sheer bliss!!!

Well blogger still doesn't want to play so the pictures will wait till next post...I even had a picture of my progress on Daisy.

I am thankful for the friends in my life and the joy they bring me....
