I have a few really great friends that keep me going day to day, well Saturday to Saturday, that's mommy's night with her friends at the grown up place where little girls can't go. Oh and the beer in this picture was a Rouge HazelNut Brown Nectar, it was yummy. With it I had spinach artichoke dip, peppered salami, smoked Gouda, brie, Gruyere, walnuts and tapenade on toast points, YUM! Split 4 ways, I'm not that hungry.
I started this blog to let anyone out there in Internet land see what I'm up to. All my little crafty things and my cooking projects. All the fun foods I try and cool beer's during mommy hour. Also to share all my funny daily things. I think I have a pretty funny life, come on I have 3 daughters, that's a hoot in it's self!
So lets see, I am working on a "quilt" and I use that term loosely, I don't want to make any serious quilters out there angry. I cut some 6 by 6 squares and am sewing them together. They are fleece squares that are left over remnants of other things I have sewed. I hope to have that done soon. I'm also trying to make my 1st smocked bishop, wow that's scary! I have it cut and the lace on the sleeve. I just don't know if I should serge it or do a french seam?? What to do what to do??? If there are any smockers out there please help me!! I am also working on a shirt for me, ugh!! I wanted something light and airy so I chose Simplicity pattern 2970 and for fabric selection I chose a jersey. What have I done??? I hate that fabric. I took me twice as long to cut that junk than a regular cotton. But once finished I'm sure it will be pretty.
Well phooey!! My crazy computer isn't letting me get to my pictures to post them as of right now. Well other than the beer photo, I guess it's trying to tell me something?? So this post is
to be continued.....

Welcome to blogging!
I look forward to reading about crafts, food and beer. (besides kids, is there really anything else immportant? Hee hee)
My husband is a BIG microbrew fan.
Thanks for dropping by my blog and leaving a comment...it's always nice to *meet* new bloggers!! I thought I'd comment on your bishop dress dilemma. I personally sew the sleeves in with a regular seam and then trim it before running through the pleater. Then on the side seams I do french seams. Either way is fine though....and you just have to decide which you prefer. Good luck. I hope you post pictures of it!!!
