OK, it's 7:40 PM & this is the FIRST time I've actually sat down ALL day!!! I think I need to go back to work... Isn't THAT an oxymoron...?! How has your day been?
I hung 2 loads of wash out on the line today. That's just EXCELLENT!!! : ) I can't get over how GOOD it smells when I bring it inside to fold it. It's like magic!
I made a pot of soup to have for next week when we return to work. I have bananas out of the freezer & a banana bread recipe ready to make/bake tomorrow. I have a crock pot of steel cut oatmeal ready to turn on before going to bed tonight.
I like being "ready" to return to work. We were @ market & have food stuffs & groceries. The house is just about as clean as it's gonna get & the laundry is caught up. Makes my soul feel more rested & puts my mind @ ease.
I made an emergency sewing machine house call to the DeMarco's this afternoon. All is well, the bobbin winder was turned "on" accidently. While there, I walked across the street to see how Consuelo's kitchen is coming...it's AWESOME!!! I LOVE it Mo!!! : )
Lois - look @ you with a sunny bright TATW quilt top!!! How fun is that?! Can't wait to see it!
Jean - was today the Spelling Bee?...in Williamsport...?! How'd that go?...with the nun...?! What are you busy stitching?
Cathy - best wishes for Tim on Monday! We'll be thinking of you guys! ; ) What do you have lined up to sew?
Dolores - what have you been working on lately?! You're quiet...& then ALL of a SUDDEN you have a bunch of quilt tops made & quilts quilted, bound & finished...?! ; ) Fess up, girl friend?!
Lor - have you tried the Elmer's School Glue yet? Let me know if you have any problems or questions...
Peggy - how's your Dad doing?! GLAD to be home, right!?!?!? ; ) How's that grand baby?! Enjoy your family - sewing will be-e there when you're ready!
LA - what's going on in your world? Did you make any quinoa yet? I am thinking about making some for my soup, but I have to look it up on the web. If you have any suggestions, don't hesitate to jump in! ; ) How's your Mom doing? How's that sweet baby Kevin? THANKS for letting me "hog" him on Wednesday. : )
We are continuing to spackle here @ Mt. Pleasant. Next, we will "tape" & spackle. Not yet ready to sand & wash. It's gonna be a while... The spackle has to have @ least 24 hours to dry.
I stopped over @ Cloth & Bobbin yesterday afternoon. I bought some Lakehouse fabric, some Kaffe Fassett fabric & a few other pieces too. Lor, Johanna has a nice selection of Kaffe Fassett fabrics if you're interested. She also has Brown Bear fabric too!
Well, enjoy your evening. Have a cup of tea & take a few stitches.
Piecefully, Pam
P.S. Is there Bee this week? Where?

Thanks to Lori - she mentioned the September (Fort Washington) Quilt Show was possibly making a come back locally. It seems as though it's been listed for the ''Philadelphia area,'' but the link from their website isn't working properly...stay tuned...
Hey...what a miserable looking day - we need a big heap of rain to clean up all the stuff left from melting snow and just make nature look better - I wish it would make up its mind and just come. Pam - your days sound like mine - shopping, lots of laundry, cooking things for the coming week. And today is a special baking day - made Irish Potatoes, scone loaves and individual chocolate chip scones (I don't like raisins!). I will take some to work and give some to the less-fortunate neighbors (the non-Irish). Kelly decided she wanted to make a four-block shamrock wallhanging so we worked on that a while yesterday. I managed to squeeze in block #3 - and finished a small wallhanging from a very reasonably priced kit. I'm happy to host this Wednesday - I may have to pop out to pick up Kelly from karate - depends on what time Burkie's meeting starts. Pam - hope you bring your fabric show&tell - I love Lakehouse fabric. Mare - how's the peace & quiet? And how is the memory quilt coming? Lois - glad you're feeling better - looking forward to seeing your 'sunny' quilt. The spelling bee is this coming Saturday - the 21st. Still stressing about what music I should have in the car - what do you think of Glenn Miller? My buzzer just went off - have to take something out of the oven. Good luck to Tim tomorrow......hope to see you guys Wednesday. Piece.....
Here's Scott's suggestion for the nun-music dilemma, "Have the nun wear her own iPod, then everyone else in the car can listen to anything they want! ; )
Glad you fit in some sewing, Jean!
My buzzer is about to ring too - banana bread!
I just googled the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center and it's in Oaks!!! That's not far at all - I'm so excited that the show is moving back - hallelujah!!!! Very cool news!!!! Thanks.....piece.
