What I've Been Up To

I up-cycled the shirts from some old men's dress shirts from a thrift store (see below post about the Presser Foot group project, and made potato leek soup care of Jacques Pepin More Fast Food My Way. I am now in love with that guy. I can actually MAKE what he cooks. I can remember the simple instructions, simple ingredients, and can afford the ingredients as well. Not too many crazy specialty items on the menu. Watch teh show - they're online, he's funny...

I also made a couple of pairs of baby shoes and gave them to Jon's mom for Mother's Day. She had requested a pair or two and I had to make sure she wouldn't try to pay me for them. Don't forget that there is some knitting in there ( a sweater that I cannot reveal as it is destined to be a holiday gift). I don't think that person reads my blog, but better safe than sorry.

Coming next - a few photos of the Chauncey Walker West Memorial thingy/Psuedo Family Reunion...and a few of some little boys in my backyard.
