How many times does your needle magically disappear when you take a break from hand stitching?😄 I got the binding on the colorwash quilt today but decided to stitch around a few more of the blocks since there's sooooo many! LoL I put my needle through a piece of bright green fabric at my stopping point ,tomorrow will tell the tale 🤣
We've had rain off & on making the days still hot but bearable ,the first of the yellow sulfur butterflies made an appearance today
For dinner I seared a pork chop seasoned with salt,pepper,garlic,dill weed & paprika cooked in a cast iron skillet on low,sometimes it's good to take a little extra time to cook something good,slaw took a new twist with purple cabbage ,a pretty & refreshing change from same oh same oh green lol, did you notice the little tomatoes look like hearts?
I wanted something sweet for later with my coffee , chocolate oatmeal sounded good,no cocoa? no problem! you can make these with or without the cocoa but the coco does make them fudgey good!
