Here We Go Again...

Good Evening Internet Friends!!!

Another work week is about to start and so here we go again....  There just does not seem to be enough time in the weekend to get everything done that I would like to.

Breakfast this morning was fresh fruit, whipped cream and maple syrup waffles:
YUMMMM!!!  As a bonus I made a double batch so that we would have waffles for breakfast this week as well.

For the lunch box I made fresh tomato soup with some home grown tomatoes that I was given:

I was also given a garden pumpkin that I cooked and mashed.  Most of the mashed pumpkin went to the freezer but I did make two loaves of banana, pumpkin, walnut bread.  This will also be in the lunch box tomorrow ☺

For dinner I made a chicken breast sheet pan dinner.  Garden potatoes, onions, zucchini and cauliflower that I was given along with red, green, yellow and orange peppers, and mushrooms.  I drizzled a fresh dill and mustard sauce over all and baked.  Dinner for this evening and a couple days of left overs as well. 
Super YUM!!!

Hope this inspires your own creativity and wishing you all the 
BEST Day EVER Monday tomorrow.  πŸ₯³

A Brand New Week..

Good Evening Internet Friends!!

A Brand New Week full of Wonderful Opportunities has arrived.

Back to work and school this morning.  The light drizzle when I took the doggie out for his 0500 stroll was a nice refreshing way to start the day.

Work and then a medical appointment this afternoon had me coming home via a different route so traffic was lighter than usual.

After dinner and all the house hold chores I decided to give myself a bit of time in my quilting room.  I made Block 17 of the 2017 Flock of Geese 52 Week Challenge.  I lost some of these blocks during the move last fall and so had to re-start from scratch.  I thought I would be okay not doing the 2017 quilt but realized I would not be.  "Sew"  here is Block 17:

Hope this inspires your own creativity and wishing you all the 
BEST Day EVER Tuesday.  πŸŽ‰

Week Something Something...

Good Evening Internet Friends!!!

"Sew" at the start of this year I started on the 52 Week Jewel Block Challenge hosted by A Needle Pulling Thread Quilt Shop.  

By the end of this week I should have 37 of these blocks:

Of course in typical Kathy fashion......I am a few weeks behind but of course there is always hope that I can get caught up πŸ₯³

Still using my seemingly never ending pile of scrap fabric.  

Hope this inspires your own creativity and wishing you all the
 BEST Day EVER Saturday tomorrow!πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

Back in the Saddle...

Good Evening Internet Friends!!

Well....back in the saddle again.  First full week of back to school and work.  

After kiddos orthodontic appointment this evening (he blew another bracket.....seriously), dinner, house tidy and dog walk I took a wee bit of time to myself in my craft room.  

Meet Block 16 of the 2017 Flock of Geese 52 Week Challenge:

TAH DAH!!!  

At this time the 2015 quilt is completed and in use.  The 2016 and 2018 are awaiting dates with the longarmer.  This 2017 and 2019 are in various stages of completion but I am hoping for an end of year (or close) finish on these.  

Hope this inspires your own creativity and wishing you all the 
BEST Day EVER Wednesday πŸ₯³

I Lost Summer 2019!!!

Good Evening Internet Friends!!

Okay....., seriously.... I LOST summer!!!  The weather station is reporting that there was 54 days of rain this summer.  It is now September 1 and good news.....it is still raining.   I love a good rain but even I am over this!!!🌧☔

Today I did a whole lot of nothing......did some house work, laundry, cleaning etc.  Helped a friend and her sister get her business set up a bit more.

After an amazing pizza from I Dream of Pizza I took my bike out for a ride around the hood.

Once I had my 7 miles done for the evening I set about making another block for my Let's Be Friends Sew Along.  Using scraps from other projects for mine and traditional piecing:

TAH DAH!!!  Not sure exactly how many of these exactly I am supposed to make but of course I am  behind πŸ™ƒ

Hope this inspires your own creativity and wishing you all a
 BEST Day EVER Monday tomorrowπŸ₯³
