Yeah, I'm kind of cheating with this post. It's been a crazy, busy week, with tons going on, so I'm going to post some of what I've already posted about. But there was lots to like!
I like this shed/playhouse that was raffled at Windmill Weekend. It somehow missed last week's post. Isn't the squid neat?
I like pignics. We held the Boston Fall Pignic on Sunday. Good weather, plenty of guinea pigs. Boadicea and Wedgwood enjoyed the day.
I like the Blogger's Quilt Festival. It's running this week. I've entered two quilts. Woot!
I like that I finished the dress. Yes, the unspeakable one. Did the top stitching, took it in the sides, finished the sleeves and hemmed the bottom. It's done! I have to say, I do nice work. Whether I keep it or give it away, it doesn't matter. I am now free to use the leftover fabric and move on. I certainly like that.
Speaking of finishing unspeakable things... I am so glad I'm done with a class I've been taking for work that just dragged on and on. Finished! I feel so much lighter!
Don't ask me how I managed to do this, but I found three boxes of graham crackers in my cupboards. So I tried this recipe (skipped the butter, used less powdered sugar, dipped in dark chocolate). I like them - crunchy, peanut buttery, chocolatey. Very easy to make. I have two more recipes to try, once I refresh my stock of marshmallow and Fluff.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteLove the shed, the squid is awesome. Have a great day!
I enjoyed your Pignic post - what a fun thing to do! Congratulations on the dress, too! I'm so impressed and hope you love it. I'm definitely putting those peanut butter/graham cracker/chocolate thingies on my list to try. They look yummy! Happy Thursday!
ReplyDeletehow does the dress twirl? It's sure pretty, and I know what you mean about doing it right. There is so much pleasure in making something well.
ReplyDeletePignics... I want to come some day and see all the squeeing pigs!
Every time I see a pig in a poke (!), I wonder how it would be to have a human sized one to slip into and read, on a cold day.
