A Special Gift from my Daughter (with my mom's help!)













My mom helped my daughter get an enlargement made of a photo taken from the play,
"Meet Me in St. Louis", for Christmas. This was our favorite play so far.
My daughter played "Tootie". Such a nice keepsake!

Double Trouble


In the last three days I managed to have two big disasters! First, my serger broke down in the middle of holiday orders. Being without my serger is like being without a car!....Uh Oh! Did I say car?
I filled up my tank at the local Shell station Thursday morning, and the car died as soon as I left the station. In the middle of a busy four-lane, in the pouring rain!
I had to tow her in to the repair shop. Guess what? The tank was about ninty-five% filled with WATER!!! Two days later (and about $700.00 later) They said it was in the gas and you couldn't know until it was too late!
We just trust that what we are buying is ok. I hope disaster doesn't really come in threes. YIKES!

How cute are these?


I wanted to show a photo of our "Diva Do" trivet project we made for Thanksgiving.
Although we are into our Christmas projects now, I thought these were cute!
We did cute original artwork adhered to a tumbled marble tile. For more info on "Diva Do's" Check out the Diva do blog at
