What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

For anyone with a Corgi or Dachschund lover on your gift giving list, here are two ideas. Addie loves Corgis – they have two. While in Walmart yesterday, I saw these slippers. I grabbed her size and put it in the cart. Then I started thinking . . she’s such a “teen” these days, maybe...

Please tell me I am not the last person to find out about these lids that are supposed to fit the Oui yogurt bottles. Most of the time I make our yogurt but there are plenty of times I buy yogurt. There are several brands I like but most often, when buying, I will buy...

This post is not political so please don’t post political comments. Have you ever seen so many recalls on food? Maybe it’s on everything but I’ve mostly paid attention to food recalls. This morning I saw one for cookies and it’s because there’s milk in the cookies and it was left off the ingredient list....

Yesterday I was upstairs canning and Vince and the dogs were downstairs watching football. I sounded what heard like a bit more “serious” rant going on downstairs. I wasn’t sure if one of Vince’s teams was not playing well or if it was one of the dogs so I stopped what I was doing, and...

You may remember that when we moved here, we had a neighbor behind us that I really liked. The man was super friendly and always noticing what we were doing and would come over if he thought Vince could use a bit of help. When Vince first met him, the first thing the guy said...

I just read that The Schwan’s Man era is ending November 8. Someone said the local driver here (may be more than one) had already turned his truck in. I haven’t purchased from Schwan’s in many years but I used to purchase a lot from them. When we lived in Kentucky, Vince was gone with...

I hesitate to say “inexpensive” because what one considers inexpensive, another probably thinks it’s over their budget so please, take this post as I’m meaning it to be – a recommendation for anyone considering a tablet for reading or stitching or some other “only one” type thing that isn’t going to take a mortgage on...

Last night we had an Azure pickup. The pickup times vary and we never know when they’re going to be – day or time – until a few days after our order closes. We’ve had them at 8 a.m. and I think the latest we had before yesterday was 5:30 p.m. but yesterday’s pickup was...

I think this goes along with getting older but I feel like I’ve been so busy but then I sit down to write about the last few days and . . what did I do that I can share? NOTHING interesting. First . . the weather! I am so tired of the heat and the...

Please don’t get the idea that I have nothing else to do . . good grief . . what is wrong with me? I have so much I should be doing. But I was reading about tortoise shell cats and to make this post ever more absurd, I’m not a cat lover. I have Boots...

Why is it that I can work in the garden all day, even when it’s 100+ degrees outside or stand in the kitchen canning all day but things like we did today, even though it was only a few hours, just completely wear me out? You know that Chad hit a deer in his old...

It’s been a busy day but it was the kind of day I live for! EDIT to add a photo of Roxy, even though it’s a photo of her with them swimming. I didn’t take any pictures when she was here. She’s a sweet little doll! Addie had a game just a bit south of...

Last night when I went out for the last time with the dogs, there was this adorable little frog on one of the turmeric plants. Doesn’t he look so sweet, with his little front “paws” tucked under his little chin? He thinks he’s safe because he’s the same exact color as the big leaf and...

We left this morning and went to Chad and Nicole’s for Addie’s birthday party. Vince drove the pickup and I drove the Highlander. We left the pickup there so Chad would have a vehicle. You have to understand that the pickup gets driven about 3 miles once a month or so to the storage building...

Last night I checked the weather forecast that goes through September 20. I was reading off the highs – about mid-September, our highs will consistently be in the mid 80’s. When I got to September 20, I said “Dang it!” Vince said “Why? I’ll take mid-80’s.” I told him . . I want to see...

I’ve mentioned on here before how much I love the Big Happy Planner. I knew it was about this time when there’s usually a sale at The Happy Planner but I was busy and never looked at it. Yesterday I checked to see what was on sale there, as well as Michael’s and found this...

Yesterday Vince and I were talking about the things we do that are kinda weird to most people. I’m thinking it may not be as weird as we think because more people may do some of these things and we just don’t talk about it but I thought I would share some of these things...

When I was a young girl, 6 – 8 probably, I loved playing school and being the teacher. I would take a bath towel and wrap it around my waist and pin it and that was my skirt. I guess I just used any old shirt. I would walk around in mom’s high heel shoes...

I’d really love to finish the bird on Anne Hughs but I was supposed to have started Friends and Family with a friend three days ago. Sooner or later, she’s going to ask me how I’m doing and I do not want to say “I haven’t started it yet!” It’s 7:10 p.m. and I’m going...

You know we had been thinking about getting Starlink because of the terrible internet service we’ve had the past few weeks. That decision has been made. Vince has a few questions about Starlink – mainly about the installation. He will hopefully be able to talk to them tomorrow and then get the equipment and get...
