Chilling Out On The Lanai

 Signs of Summer still hanging on,butterflies fluttering ,hummingbirds humming,birds signing, as you can see ,they don't even mind sharing their sunflower seeds 😄 I luv it when doves are out,Mr Jay was in the distance fussing,perhaps because there were no peanuts 😄

Dehydrating Hibiscus Flowers

 Early this morning before daylight I worked on the quilt for a little over 2 hrs then took a break, got a little breakfast,took the garbage out,gathered the hibiscus flowers,gave them a good rinse & prepped them to dehydrate in the oven


A few more zinnia survivors are blooming 


It'll be a few hours before stores began to open so I'll work on the quilt some more ,I want to get a lot progress  done on it before going to pay my cell ph bill, it wouldn't let me without updating but instead of updating it locked me out so at some point I'll have to get dressed & go to town 😄

Blue Tea ,A New Cup & Quilt Update

 My friend Ree & I were out & about & stopped off at World Market, at the back of the store is a wall of tea,lots & lots of teas! So many I've never seen nor heard of,so yea I was in tea heaven 🤣 


the tea is on cute little Sachet bags filled with apple pieces,rose hips,butterfly pea flower,lemon peel,lemongrass, raspberry flavors, honey flavors 


just look how pretty the blue color is!


& oh course I had to get this beautiful glass tea cup to show it off !


It is the butterfly pra flower that turns it blue,I search & searched for that named flower only to discover its not available  where I live so I was excited to find this tea,I will definitely be going back for other varieties,besides🤔 we have to go back,there's so many soup mixes to try! 🤣



I've been working on a fan stitch on the corners of the bird blocks, working on this quilt is giving me a run for money lol today the point of the erasable pen fell out in a globe while tracing one of the birdhouses 🙆I dabbed it up as gently as I could  & came close to throwing in the closet & saying forget it!😄 but thank the Lord it dried & disappeared!


This quilt needs to cooperate with me ,its crunch time!🤣

Are You Ready For Fall?

 Mother Nature is slowly trying to ease us  into it with  more rain in the forecast & temps as low as the 60's coming in the next few days so lets start it off with pumpkin spice waffles ,& a pumpkin spice latte for breakfast 


The latte is easy peasy,just pour & add whipped topping with a sprinkle of pumpkin spice,although I think it'd be heavenly with Carmel added to it, lol



There was so sewing, quilting or going near the sewing room yesterday just a quiet day,cleaning & organizing around the house & later took myself to dinner to a "new to me" restaurant 

yesterday marked my Terry's 72nd B'day,this Feb.will mark 9 yrs since he passed away & I'll  turn the big 70 ,where does time go & why must it go by so quickly


Since I have Sunday Dinner for family & friends to celebrate the first day if Fall,a tradition  I started a few yrs ago I wil be pulling the Fall decor out soon, but first I really really gotta hunker down & finish the show quilt 




Who Says Dogs Can't Paint?🤣

  If it's on the Internet its got to be true ,right?😄 I saw this reel & thought🤔 I have paint,PB, canvas,ziplock, lets do this!😄 ...
