I know, I know! You're supposed to get a recipe today. But if you haven't noticed I haven't really posted anything this week. I know, I know there are only 3 people that read this anyway so who cares.

But I got this  new car. It was nice when we got it but after a few days the Drivers door stuck and the check engine light came on. CE light is actually a mood light that goes on and off. The Door is not moody though, and I slide over or around the console to get in the drivers seat. I used to be double jointed, now in my old age I'm as flexible as a 20 yr old, thank goodness. Car looks pretty good in the pics, not much cancer for 193K miles. Anyhow New Car = Shopping



Then there was Dr Horrible lab coat buttons to sew, and labels for Poppy's packages and the bathroom to work on and Poppy's Baby shower to prepare for.

I started a baby afghan a month ago and never finished. The night before the shower I decided worked for 6 hours til 2 AM and 2 hours at 6 AM the day of the shower, but it got finished. This is a lousy flash picture, colors are much nicer. I'll take a better one if we ever get sun.


Poppy will be mad that I posted this picture, but I thought it was a cute silhouette of the baby bump and the baby shower sign.  Just don't tell her and maybe she'll be too busy to read the blog. She is taking a few more costume orders, crazy lady.

Anyhow, I hope things settle down a bit and I only have to finish the bathroom, clean and organize the new baby's room and the rest of the house (and sew on a few more buttons).



I almost forgot that I started to make new Bow Ties for my Housewares shop. Still have some work to do on them, but with any luck I will have cute genre bow ties with adjustable velcro on ribbon neck bands. I still have more to make, but if your Geek Guys love Bow Ties stop in the shop. Poppy's Garden Gate

Oh and Google changed requirements so I had to update about 300 items on my Artfire shops because they all fell in the category that required color specifications.



So that's what I've been up to if you were at all interested. Hoping this week will be a bit calmer.

That's quite enough! Recipes later! Get done what you have to get done. Stay flexible! :)

I don't cook, but I think the car looks pretty cool! Poppy looks adorable by the window! Take a rest Cindy!

Wow! You really have been busy! I hope the car doesn't develop any new kinks! Here's hoping for prosperous but calmer times!

I've been so busy working full time outside my studio that I have missed out on all my fav blogs and tweets.
It was fun catching up with your life and creativity. Wishing you and your family a great Friday and weekend ahead!
