wips and wings

Pardon the wrinkles in the following picture, but it's Sunday, which is my lazy day, which means I ain't dragging out the iron. No way. No how.

It's one of my current "works in progress", The Mermaid, an older Carriage House Samplings design, back when she was designing under the name Barrick Samplers.



It's got a lot of filling in that needs to be done on it, good mindless (don't have to count) stitching.

Just a side note...I saw this same chart recently on ebay and it sold for about $35
That's a lot, don't you think?

Even though it's "Lazy Sunday", we did do a little cooking. Not too much because we had a sandwich while we were out having retail therapy this afternoon. We made Ree's wings, along with some baked beans. We liked them, a LOT. My youngest proclaimed them the best wings she'd ever had. So I'd say they're pretty darn tasty then, we'll make them again. Very simple, easy to make.

Ree always makes it easy, doesn't she? Love the Ree, she should write a book. A cookbook!



Thanks so much for stopping by and reading my silly blog. We appreciated hearing your thoughts on whether or not to neuter Astro. We're putting it off for now and just seeing how things go. He is an indoor pup and doesn't roam around outside without supervision, so he's not likely to father any babies without us knowing about it, lol.
Anyway, thanks again. Your nice comments and compliments are very heartwarming :)
