Chowder Fest

 Saturday was a relatively nice day considering what we've been dealing with so we decided to go the the chowder fest in Saratoga
 We had to park about a mile or more away & this was happening in the park as we walked through...".yes the British are coming"
 It's hard to see in this pic but there were thousands of people there & the lines for chowder were ridiculously long!
 We had Molly with us & she was one of lots of dogs parading around
 We ended up at the city center where we split up & managed to get a couple different kinds to try.
 Oh look there's that dang snow again!
 There were even a couple of pot-belly pigs???
 We stood in line for about 25mins to get kettle korn....it was worth every second!
 Saratoga definitely does things right as there are always so many people at whatever they do.
 The victorian houses are so beautiful!
 This is what people around here do in the long, long winter
 Not me.....too cold!
Love

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...
