    This is the magnet and recipe exchange that I recieved from TARA!

She sent me 5 recipes that I can't wait to try and the sweetest magnet ever!

The recipes that I got are:  Mint Chocolate Chip Iced Coffee, Iced Mocha Latte,

Iced Spiced Latte, Lemon-Orange Iced Tea, and Lemon Poppy Seed Bread.

I can't wait to try these!

Thank you sooooo much TARA!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a beautiful RAK from Carla.  She was part

of the Color Exchange that I partnered with Carrie in.

She wrote in her note that when she heard that my

color was blue; she thought that I might like the pattern.

She was so right,  the pattern is beautiful.

I love HUMMINGBIRDS!

You are the greatest CARLA!

One For the Money!...A Great Read

One for the Money by Janet Evanovich



My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I LUV Stephanie Plum...She is the perfect "real life" heroine.

The girl that lets you know that the road to where you want to be doesn't always follow the map that you plotted before you left the house. Getting from A to B with Miss Plum and the wacky cast of characters in this book is definately an sdventure that I wouldn't miss for the world. Stephanie has to be the Forrest Gump of the bail bonds game. Don't count her out! She will get her man and her mother's pot roast.

The Hunger Games

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins



My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a book that I found hard to stop reading. I listen to most of my books via my MP3. I found this book captivated me from begining to end. I loved the way that Katniss was able to maintain her girlhood and femininity without losing her ability to survive, love, and be very intelligent at the same time.



There was never a lull in the action or a weak spot in the story...even when no one was being killed!



I loved this book!

Lions...Tigers...and Wizards, Oh My!

There was no stitching for me this Mother's Day weekend.

I was far to busy beating the bad guys in Wizards 101.

This is tha coolest game EVER.  I started playing it after being introduced to it

by my eldest DD last year.

I then proceeded to hook my best friend ChefTiger and her son

as well as my two other daughters.

I stopped playing for a few months(much to the disappointment of Tiger)

but I was lured back this weekend.

I have a LOT of catching up to do!

There have been so many cool changes since I left

and Tiger is already a level 50 with her main character.

I'm trying my best to catch her way back at 30!

This game is great for all and safe for the kiddies!

If you would like to see what all the fun is about,

Hope to see you there!

A Whole Lotta BS...

     I think the title says it all.  Today's update is all about the backstitching.  I am NOT a big fan of the BS, but
that very element is what make M Sherry designs soo very cute!  I hope that today will be the day that I finish this piece
for good.  I still have a few confetti stitches that I have to get done in the fish bowl before I can close that out and prep it for final stitches and Mr. Kitty needs a face.
     I don't really have a lot on my plate today housework wise.  So I guess that I will be stitching the day away.
Still listening to "The Onion Girl" by Charles DeLint.  I wish that I could tell you where I was in that because it is REALLY good and getting better.  I don't want to ruin the read for anyone who may be following me down the reading
trail though.
Thanks for listening to me ramble!
Have a great day.

Sleep???? What Sleep???

Well...this is what happens when you tell yourself that you're only going to stitch for a little while; the audiobook gets
waaaaay too good and the house is waaaay too quiet.  By the time I stopped working on this... it was 6:30am and the girls had to be awakened for school.  I know that I'm supposed to be keeping track of my stitches but I lost count somewhere between parts 9 and 12 of Charles DeLint's " The Onion Girl" and have not had the time to go back and have a go at counting.  As you can see though, there has been quite a lot of progress made and soon I am proud to say there will be a finish or two in my future.
