After three days of on and off again snow, the sun has finally come out and the snow finally started to melt from my driveway and steps. The grass and trees are still covered but it is just beautiful outside.
I put some seed out for the birds and walked the dogs around for a while until my little 3 lb Lacey started shaking way too much. Her little feet just couldnt take the cold ground anymore. So in we went and mom had to take a towel to dry off her little feet so they would warm up.
I made some homemade soup yesterday and brought some over to a friend who is recovering from surgery. I thought maybe the taste of homemade as apposed to canned soup would help him regain some of his appetite. I may have to post this one, it came out really good. It's a Rachel Ray Stoup Recipe. Chicken and Dumplin Stoup. Was even better the next day.
I started cutting some jeans purses and their linings and will start assembly this week. They seem to be pretty popular and the last few never made it out of my studio to the shop. They sold immediately. I also hope to get some wallets made and a few kitchen mittens and pot holders for the gift shop. These are gifts that I sell all year round.
I have 2 more months and will be taking a trip to Buffalo New York, to my nieces' wedding. Got my tickets and I'm now still searching for an outfit to wear. Weather in May up state NY is unpredictable, so will have to plan my packing wisely. I plan to go a few days early to spend some quality time with my mother who I miss terribly. Then another few days after the wedding to visit and just chill. Johnny my husband will stay home with the dogs this time. Him and the girls (my Yorkies) will also have quality time together.
Most of my friends have been sick this week so I have kept myself home and away from them all. Although I am there for them if they need me, just don't want to get that nasty cold. Sometimes it is just hard to do.
I will be bringing some new items to the craft room and will post them soon. So if your looking for an Easter Gift or Mother's Day, stop in and see whats there. So thats it for now. Hope you all are staying warm and avoiding that nasty flu bug. Happy sewing. joanna
