I'm taking a wee break from the blog. I have to put some time and energy into a few other things. Back soon!

Oh, D.E.E.R!
This weekend I busted out an old pocket chart and Keely loved it. You can use these nifty things for all sorts of games and whatnot.I thought she'd want to just shove leaves and buttons in the pockets. But this girl is all about letters right now. She and I put all the alphabet […]
Keely at almost 3 1/2.
Just a few things I want to record for my girl before they pass or I forget. (Flying and watching your shadow fly too.) You love birds. You always pick berries and put them in little piles on the sidewalks for the birdies lunch. You say when you grow bigger you want to […]
Meet the cats, Claire & Janie
Two cats made to Keely's specifications: Not too shabby. Keely has named the big cat Claire and the sidekick Janie. Keely was all over me while I was making them so they aren't going to be a surprise, but that's alright. Her face just lit up when I handed them to her all finished. Warm […]
this and that
A few of my recent finds. First is this set of old ceramic drawer pulls. Aren't they awesome? They are really brightly colored and heavy. I haven't found anywhere to put them yet though.I wish there were more of the blue ones. I won't complain though because I got the bag of them for a […]
One Year
Today my blog is one year old! So, thank you to all of you who visit, comment, and share such good stuff with me. I appreciate it. I had intended to write a long post about the crazy land of blogs, but I'm feeling pretty quiet so I'll just say thank you to all of […]
tea for two

on the crafting front
I found this half-finished apron while thrifting a few months ago. It is made of neat fabric. I don't know what it is. It's kind of a tight knit linen, but softer? It feels old. It has a scalloped top and a little red-trimmed pocket, but it had no ties to tie it on, no […]
thank you and a too many photos
WOW! WOW! WOW! That was a lot of birthday wishes. I am so touched by all of you who stopped in yesterday and to all of you who "delurked". I love to know who is reading here and I just had no idea how many of you there were. Many thank yous to all of […]
A Happy Birthday Hijacking
Hello, blogworld. Angela's husband, Ryan, here. Angela's blog has been temporarily hijacked in order to inform you all that today, Monday, January 15th, is her birthday. I know that she would never presume to post that here, but I thought that some of you might like to know. So happy, happy birthday, Angela!
