While I was under the weather but well enough to do something…I decided to crochet another twirly scarf. This time I used some worsted weight wool (I think) that I bought at a local yarn shop while on my quest to learn to knit. Shockingly, it only took me about 2 hrs total. Such a quick and awesome pattern.
Tonight as I was picking up the dinner dishes I noticed what was keeping my girl so captivated at her plate…
Love in angel hair pasta… oh, to be 8 again….
My mom surprised me with a small box of “orphaned” cups and saucers last week. (ah…who is it that used that on their blog!!!)
She said…” Don’t know what you’ll do with these but I’m sure you’ll find something. Or else sell them.”
This one was in instant favorite for me. It looks like a mug but is very small in size.
I know this cup is very old. I’m hanging onto this one as is. It will find a home in my lawyers cabinet when I’m not using it.

Found this great looking book at the thrift store and knew it would make a fantastic book purse.
I reclaimed the handles off a super ugly purse from the same thrift store and dug through my fabric stash for the lining.
I went ahead and listed it in my Etsy store a little earlier today.
These are the days I don’t like living in Minnesota.
Here’s a snapshot of my desktop from a little bit ago. That is actual air temp…not wind chill.
And, yes, the kids have school…on time…standing at the bus stop. Poor things. Their only exposed area was a little slit for the eyes. At least they’ll have indoor recess today.
I cleaned up my art zone a little bit yesterday…enough to do a quick page in an altered book.
I used some of the scrap laying around the workspace for this page. I still need to get to work on some similar themed swap pages.
I also started work on yet another attempt at a braided rug. Things are going much better this time around… *quickly knocking on wood*
The morning sky was pretty so I thought I’d share it with you. The photo was taken through the glass of the patio door. Way to chilly to stand outside for a lousy photo op for me.
I’m indulging in my new very favorite tea from Aveda.
My next door neighbor introduced me to it, which is oh so good and oh so bad.
Good because it’s so yummy!
Bad because it’s so expensive!
Like I said I’m indulging myself today.
I’m going to spend some of my tea time today with my journal. I’ve been neglecting it a bit… Okay… a lot. (yes Elizabeth…I am using it!)
