My online friend, Erin, is going to SOAR and I was tickled to buy one of her needle holder to help her out! And, it already arrived!!
I added my Knit Picks Options needles to it, but now I’m thinking I might get another one for my Denise needles! Here is a link to her Etsy shop if you want one – and want to help her get to SOAR.
This week’s box has….
I need to quit just looking at the Kale and try those roast Kale chips! I think we’ll roast the squash too. And Trina tells me the beets would be yummy roasted too.
I plan to make the chard pasta dish again – going to pick up some shrimp today for a great dinner!
If I can find the juicer, I’ll juice those grapefruit. But the last ones I just peeled and then dipped in a bit of sugar! SOO good…a guilty pleasure!
As I walk in my kitchen I can smell my first Gardenia blossom that I picked yesterday. I love it.
It reminds me of my Grandma Davis’ house and all the great memories there.
It’s the little things – the little joys – that brighten my life.
One thing you might not know about my husband, he is a good singer.
And, he enjoys singing.
Sadly he hasn’t had an opportunity to sing regularly – except for church – for a long time. A few months ago I started to pray that he would find an opportunity with some other men to sing again.
Last night another family came over for root beer floats — though the mommies ended up with chocolate ice cream with fresh strawberries – yeah for mommies! ;-) Mike brought his guitar and after some great food and fellowship, he pulled it out. He is amazing! Not only did he play just a small bit of some of his original work, but just by hearing Eric sing a song – a song he’d never heard before – he could play it! And play it beautifully.
They did a couple of songs and planned to get together and do it again. They are even talking about performing togehter. The very thought of doing anything in public terrifies me – but Eric tells me that sharing the music adds so much more to the experience.
I found some songbooks that Eric had created a few years ago of Victorian Christmas songs. I think they are going to work on some of these lesser-known songs to share with others next Christmas.
I’m pretty jazzed about the possibilities this new friendship holds for Eric!
