Yummy Eats, Quilt Bucket List & Surprise Visits

 The morning started off with pumpkin spice blueberry french toast made with the bottoms of the hotdog buns I'd made garlic bread from the other day

No sewing, straighten up the sewing room & spent the day  cleaning , vacuuming,washing cloths,lunch eas simple 

Watch a few movies ,went through my bucket list of quilts I want to make ,here are a few I have my eye on for a different  approach for scrappys

* Not So Quick Strippie

* Show Off

I have tote full of homespun & plaids that will work for this one

* Take A Break

* Bronze Coins

* Elains Garden

A pretty one to use up those floral scraps

* Shadowed Florals

If you have smaller floral scraps this one is also pretty 

These are just a few I have saved from Quilted Twins ,she also offers seasonal patterns & individual color themes,you can find these free patterns along with so many more here

 Between what I have saved from You tube,FB, Google ,Bloggers,books & magazines surely I can come up with something 🤣 when I get finished with this present  quilt & get it dropped off at the fabric shop I will dive into my scraps & fabrics,figure  out what I truly want to make ,the plan is for August to beva month of scrappies 

Meanwhile this evening my great niece & nephew came to visit,Grace 🐕& Sadie 🐕 had a blast playing with them

Grace & Sadies Park Photo Shoot

 Yesterdays heat index was terrible,but we were in for an early cool morning that wouldn't last till the sun came up good so we left bright & early so's to beat the heat , the Fayette park is one of our absolute favorites,a longer drive but so worth it & can you believe were were home before 12:00?😄 

they were happy to see that the ducks were out

 not only did they show up but they showed out  

They were happy I remembered the water!

you know you're in the country when you  drive by fields & fields of corn

we left so early this morning we missed bfast so nothing doings but stop by Jacks on the way home🤣

Jacks cold water is the best!

Home is where our snuggly quilts are❤️me & Grace passed out on the couch & Sadie made sure she got in on the snuggles😄

Heat Waves Calls For chilling Out & Working On Projects & New Recipes

 We had a heat wave today with heat index of 107 so me & the girls🐕🐕 laid low , starting out the morning making banana pancakes ,I had just one left & itd got too soft for my liking for eating but perfect for adding to the pancake batter

I got 4 more padded hangers made

Sadie pulled neighborhood watch duty while I sewed 

She then decided piggy should join us

Molly "Sadie's" mom gave me a pack of hotdog buns , said she didn't want them to go bad & spinach ravioli 🤔what to do with these,Im not a fan of hot dogs  so what does Google say ?  I jad just enough spaghetti sauce  left,found a recipe for garlic bread & dinner was born

Since the ravioli is basically pasta this tasted like spinach lasagna,the bread called for soften butter minced or fresh garlic,parsley mixed & spread to the bread face side up ,bake @ 450 for 3-4 min then flip them over backing an additional 3-4 min,it turned out lightly crunchy & tasted like good ole buttery garlic bread,check out  the recipe here
