I was planning on keeping this project a surprise, but I am just no good at that. How adorable is this fabric? It is a kit put together by the great folks at Prairie Queens, and when I saw it, I knew it needed to come home with me. They even fussy cut a big […]
Hi everyone. Thanks so much for all your wonderful good wishes to my son and his lovely girlfriend. They are spending the rest of the week together, and I have decided to go up and visit my daughter through Thursday. I plan to sit by her fireplace and do some major relaxing. After all the […]
This was the most magical, memorable, amazing Christmas ever. The festivities began Christmas Eve, when my daughter Sara gave me a little present. A little set of nesting dolls. Oh, but look! There is a note inside! What does it say? Keep going…. There is another note! What? What? Last one… No one has […]
OK, you ask, what the heck is THAT? That, my friends, is a LUSH Emotibomb. For when you have partied to hearty and need to wake up and rejoin the living, as in *today*. This Morning. An "emotibomb" is something that you put on the floor of your shower, turn on the water to […]
I'd like to introduce you to Meriwether Lewis, my daughter Sara's new kitten. She adopted him from the Humane Society last week, and I have been getting acquainted with him while visiting her home for a few days. Lewis is an intrepid explorer, just as his namesake was. At any given moment he is cavorting […]

I would have prefered diamonds, but this is pretty good too… The Wine Maker finished putting my composter together, and it really doesn't make for exciting photography. However, it does make great dirt in 4 to 6 weeks. What's the point you ask? Well, compost creates a food source for a selection of life that […]
Oh hello… Long time no see! Guest Blogger Sara here! The above shot is of mom's completed cushion redesign for the patio set she gifted me. A gorgeous toile complete with red stripe and button. A project like this would have really overwhelmed me, but she whipped this together in a mater of hours. She […]
I realize that it is St. Patrick's Day, not St. Valentine's Day, but I think you will see that this post is appropriate anyway! You see, my son has fallen in love with an Irish girl from Galway. And he asked me to make her a quilt to express his regard for her. She is […]
My daughter Sara is going on vacation to Hawaii in a few weeks. The purpose of the trip is for her and her husband to attend the wedding of some very dear friends, but if anyone I know needs a vacation, it is Sara. I won't go into all the details, but suffice to say, […]
