Palm Sunday...

 Good Evening Internet Friends!

Somehow it seems shocking to realize that today is already Palm Sunday!  It feels like I have done nothing this year and yet it's a 1/4 finished!!

Started the day out with oven baked fresh strawberry, blueberry French Toast, topped with Vanilla Sugar, whipped cream and Quebec Maple Syrup.  Sooo YUM!

After breakfast took doggie out for his mid morning stroll through the neighborhood.  Bruce the Goose and all his kin folk seem to be moving in and Goose Steppin' around:

Baked 2 loaves of Lemon, Poppy Seed Thyme Bread this afternoon.  It smelled and tasted awesome!!

 Still on my clean everything mission so did 7 loads of laundry today.  As of now everything is washed, folded and put away!!  House smells super clean and awesome!

In between loads of laundry I knitted on my Finish Line Socks.  These are from the Jan/Feb Biscotte Yarns Mystery Sock Box. 

For dinner I made kiddo a mushroom, dill bison roast in the slow cooker.  Served with roasted garlic, parsnip, mashed potatoes, dill salad and a home made dill pickle:

Kiddo enjoyed.  

This evening after floors were vacuumed and mopped I spent a bit of time in my craft room and made another 2020 Darlene D'Eon Designs 52 Week Challenge Block.  "Sew" close to being done this one and getting it out to be long armed:

TAH DAH!!

Spring Break all of this week so will see what I can get in to.  Staying home and staying safe.

Hope this inspires your own creativity and wishing you a BEST Day EVER Monday tomorrow.  Stay Safe.😷

Week 12 in Week 13

Good Evening Internet Friends!!!

Well.....I appear to have fallen off the wagon for the 52 Week Block challenge for 2019...

Spring Break is maybe the reason.

Meet Block 12 in Week 13 and fingers crossed I can get week 13 made in the next day or two and get caught up!!!

TAH DAH!!!!

Hope this inspires your own creativity and wishing you the 

BEST Day EVER Wednesday🎉

Ho Hum...

Good Evening Internet Friends!

Somehow I am not really accomplishing anything on this Spring Break.  Today was another Ho Hum kind of day.  

I did make homemade tomato soup for lunch and now I have 2 quarts in the freezer for lunches another day:

Served with grilled cheese sandwiches it was FABULOUS!  The snow was falling outside again.....so I had an afternoon nap.

After dinner I decided that I actually should be somewhat of an adult and so I made muffins as I might have a friend stopping by tomorrow about morning tea time.  I made banana, coconut, oatmeal, flax seed, ground flax, whole wheat and chocolate chip muffins (I sampled one - they are delicious):

Now to retire with my knitting for a bit and see if I can make some progress on my KAL I started last spring....

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

Cut!!!

Good Evening Internet Friends!

Well, after a busy day of I am not sure exactly what other than "Oh, look, I should do that" and then getting distracted I decided to start on my Quilting Class for this weekend.

I have been wanting to make one of the many Collage Quilts by Laura Heine.  On my one of my cross border shopping trips I had the opportunity to stop at her shop and see some of these quilts and immediately wanted to make one.

Fast forward to this weekend when finally all things lined up so that I could attend the Collage Class at Purple Katz Quilting.

I have chosen to make Seawell The Turtle.  This evening I started to cut out the collage pieces but realized I have NO idea what I am doing, so I am going to stop here and wait for class. 

TAH DAH!

I think this is going to be "sew" much fun and there is a brilliant idea for this quilt in my head and a plan as to where this quilt will go that I cannot wait (but will have to) share with you.  

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

Something New!!!

Good Evening Internet Friends!!!

Life has been crazy busy for the past week and as such I have not had a chance to blog.

Last night we arrived in Las Vegas for Spring Break Vacation.  While en route I found out that Vogue Knitting Live was here this weekend!!!! :-)  Seriously...I come to Vegas and find YARN.

This morning I registered for a yarn dyeing class!  It was awesome!  Here is one of the yarns I dyed today:

I had so much fun making this.....and yes....I will be making more yarns!!!!!

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

My Sore ASSets...

Good Late Evening Internet Friends!

Today marks the last day of Spring Break.  Now the weekend and back to reality next week.

As you have likely surmised by now my crafting this week has not been much.

So far this week I have put on almost 3200 kilometers (1988 miles).  I have traveled through Alberta with kiddo and my friend Sharon last weekend and then took at 2 day road trip with myself and kiddo to visit my 90 year old Grammy in Saskatchewan.  I do love the drive, although it is just under 1500 kilometers round trip.  We took the Focus just for fuel mileage.  Filled up leaving Edmonton and upon return and total cost of fuel for the entire trip......$97!!!! Yes, my "assets" are sore, but for that price it was worth it!

Love the wide open plains!  I feel so at home with this skyline.  ☺

This evening I spent a bit of time in my craft room and managed to get the inner border put on my Churn Dash Challenge Quilt:

I am really hoping to be able to spend tomorrow in my craft room and just have some "me" time and do a few things I want to.  ☺

Hope this inspires your own creativity...
