Stir fry eggplant with mushrooms. Garlic, ginger, a dash of chili pepper. Faking it. No recipe. #stirfry #eggplant #mushrooms #spices #norecipe #taleswithfriendsOur afternoon walk. Sunshine and snow. How could you ask for more? #afternoonwalk #sunshine #snow #taleswithfriendsEmbellishing the tablecloth border. It’s going to look better than I had hope for. I wish I could be more careful. Fabric bunches up and I’m stitching too many layers. Then it’s like hours of ripping. 😬 #tablecloth #border #embellishments #fancystitches #taleswithfriendsDim sum with mom and sis. Mom and I were posing for the first pic. Better when we’re not even though mom was chewing. 😀 Love those chicken feet and egg tarts. #dimsum #mom #sister #taleswithfriendsThe good, bad and ugly. The good - a neighbour snowblew the back alley and behind our garage as well. The bad - a scammer causing me stress and loss of sleep. The ugly - a lady banging on her window at me because I was making sure I was picking up all Sheba’s poo near her garbage bin. But I had put it in her garbage bin. Then she came charging to the door, face all red yelling at me. I felt awed. It was like watching a movie. The passions some people have for their garbage bin! I said sorry and no more. #thegoodbadandugly #goodneighbor #scammer #theugly #passions #taleswithfriendsA few embellishments for the tablecloth border. Hard to work the restart button once I’m in the park mode. I love to languish. #embellishments #tablecloth #border #taleswithfriendsI’ve had a wee bit of difficult time. Good to have Sheba to talk to. She listens attentively without interruption. She gives very good advice. Her eyes say it all. Buckle up and don’t sweat the small stuff. #stress #sheba #goodlistener #goodadvice #buckleup #dontsweatthesmallstuff #photochallenge #taleswithfriendsSaturday morning. View from my couch. Watching swirling snow flakes falling and listening to my guru on my MacBook. I said no to swimming and everything correct. I said a bunch of bad expletives in my head. I’m having a cuppa, of course. #saturdaymorning #noswim #snowisfalling #swearing #drinkingtea #taleswithfriendsA pileup at the corner means ripping 😬. Also have to let go of fabric more. Design not coming out even. It means time for our walk. #sewing #ripping #tablecloth #taleswithfriendsMy tablecloth all in one piece with backing and dog attached. Sheba thinks she is involved in everything. Just need to embellish border with some fancy stitchery. #tablecloth #border #fancystitching #sheba #taleswithfriends
