A wintry windy day but I’m happy listening to the steady soft chugging of my Bernina. When it clangs like the other day,it’s time for a lube job. It’s warm and comforting with the fire on one side and Sheba on the other. I can’t ask for anything more. #sewing #bernina #fireside #sheba #taleswithfriendsMy blind date from the library. Hope it is good. I hate taking chances. 😀 #reading #blinddate #chances #taleswithfriendsShadows and light. The yin and the yang. You can’t have one without the other. #shadowsandlight #yinandyang #photochallenge #taleswithfriendsWorking on embellishments on the border. It’s learning as I go on how to keep it smooth and flat. Sometimes I resort to pulling and stretching. Definitely should have pinned each square to start with. But how was I to know before what I should have done? #tablecloth #border #embellishments #shouldhave #makingitwork #taleswithfriendsWe’re up and moving. Making bread. #upandmoving #breadmaking #taleswithfriendsGood morning. We are comfortable as we are. We will move - eventually. #morning #comfortable #sheba #taleswithfriendsStir 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 #taleswithfriends

Here I am. It’s tough to get going some days. The best tactic is not to sit too long. Get up and get going. It’s just what I did this morning. I got up and started stitching though I was … Continue reading

JAMMING IT
There’s something so soothing and meditative about squishing grapes that I never thought possible! That’s the surprise I discovered when I sat down with my two pounds of Concord grapes. Two pounds is not alot but too much to eat. … Continue reading
