Baking, coloring & cards

LiLi was on school break last week so Weds Popster picked her up to spend the day with us. I worked in the morning so the two of them took Molly to dog school & had a piano lesson.

I barely pulled into the garage at lunch time & she was at the door "Come on Nana we have to get the store to buy the ingredients for the pie" I grabbed a quick cup of coffee & off we went. I just trailed behind her in the market as she walked around with her basket, shopping list in hand. Every time she put something into it she would say "This is the brand we buy" The child cracks me up!

We were making Key Lime pie & she basically did it all. Has decided she was to be a Chef. Specifically "Chef LiLi"

While the pie was baking it was on to coloring her fabric....this going to be sewn into a case for her iphone....we didn't get that done as it wasn't quite finished

The pie is done & BTW it was delicious!

Today we have a riddle???

What do you get when you cross a pile of scraps, a sewing machine, a woman possessed, & a husband on a week long golf trip? The following......... This is a tablecloth for my kitchen table....forgot to take the finished pic Cover for my sewing machine...very proud of this as I quilted the whole thing. This is the back....got tired of doing squares! Matching cover for my serger. I meant to post these a while ago & must have forgot. I have done a couple other projects since then which I will get around to posting soon. Had computer problems so I have some catching up to do Love

C of O ....Sun Room...Day Twenty Three-Twenty Five

This came in the mail today which made me realize I never posted the last couple days updates. They really all rolled into one as Jim ended up leaving at noon on Weds...it started to snow & didn't work at all on Thurs. Friday he finished things up by lunch time but had to spend the afternoon emptying my garage of all his tools. We had our inspection on Monday which wasn't a problem. It has been so sunny this week so far so it is so nice to sit in there & enjoy the view! Yes Molly hangs out in her a lot.....I have nose prints to prove she looks out of all the windows!

Sewing, weaving & emptying the waterbed

Monday morning began bright & early as we needed to finish emptying our bedroom. Mark was dropping LiLi off before 8:00am as she does not have school this week. We needed to drain the waterbed before we could take it apart. As usual we were having no luck getting the water to siphon out & even resorted to having LiLi (all 35lbs of her) sitting on it with us!! It probably took over an hour & who knows how many tries before it worked. Got the mattress out & discovered the decking was falling apart.....good thing we decided to do this project,,,,I was able to find a local place so we can just replace it & to be safe I also got a new safety liner & heater. I don't want to be doing this again for a while! While Popster worked on replacing the baseboard & window trim in those two rooms LiLi & I started working on this doll kit she had gotten for her birthday. All the pieces needed to be sewn togeth...
