Baby Gifts

I went to a baby shower last week and made burp cloths, a diaper/wipes holder,and a self binding blanket. First time making the self binding blankets. A little hard with the silky dot fabric. Practice makes perfect so I definitely need to make some more.

Mediterranean Salad

I love this salad! Fresh garden tomatoes, sprinkled with Kosher salt, layered with fresh mozzarella cheese and basil. Drizzle balsamic vinegar and olive oil. YUM!

Friends

A few of my friends and I get together to make 'things'. We've made cards, books, flowers, quilts, food, jewelry, and yesterday made coin purses.

These are two I made. The frame is glued on instead of sewing the metal frame on. A little tricky trying to keep the glue where it belongs.

I must like dots.

Some of the flowers we made.

One of our lunches. We evolved into bringing treats and now have a lunch.

Yummy lime slush.

Homemade pizza. Whole wheat crust. So good.

Do you have this problem when trying to take a pic with you in it? You know, reaching the camera out in front of you. I don't know how people do that successfully!

Aww a little better. I conveniently almost cut myself off...up in the top right corner.

More homemade pizza.

This is cream cheese with homemade pepper jelly poured on top. Served with rice crackers. Yum!

Oregon

Went on a vacation with some friends to Oregon. What a wonderful time we had! This is Haystack rock

Yummmm, Tillamook ice cream...no I didn't finish it but I was pretty close. Blackberry Pie, Caramel Pecan crunch, Strawberry Cheesecake. Dumped it for cheese tasting!
