Michael headed out to take Cookie for a
walk on Wednesday (9/14) and Paula picked me up for breakfast and we headed out
to IHOP. We had a wonderful time talking,
talking, & talking at breakfast and at DOLLAR TREE and at Aldi’s before heading
home just after 11 AM. I got the last
row done on Mary Ann’s quilt and took it off the frame to trim and tie in
bobbin ends. Sandy F swung by to pick up
her kimono quilt…and she agreed that the gold thread was an excellent choice….and a Pulte rep (Pulte is the company that build
our houses) came by to look at the cracks in our basement wall. Thankfully, he judged the cracks to be a
result of our house settling, and not something more serious. I spent the rest of the afternoon continuing
to work on my Rainbow Rectangles:
I
finally had to make dinner….I think for the first time in 9 days (!), and my honey
and I put together this and that. We had
2 hamburgers left in the freezer, so Michael started browning and breaking
those up in a skillet….we added chopped onions and mushrooms…threw in the rest of the
leftover spaghetti sauce and a bunch of herbs….cooked up some ditalini and
threw that in…then melted cheese over the whole thing (cheddar on Michael's side and jalapeno on my side :~)….it was yummy! After dinner I headed downstairs to SKYPE
with Janice…and that was lovely….SKYPE worked for the entire hour! After that it was a tiny bit of reading, and
a bit more TV watching before bed.
I finally figured out what your rainbow rectangles reminds me off -- my stepping stones quilt (I worked on it at our very first FF retreat). Instead of horizontal rows, yours are vertical. Love how it looks!
