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!

Sharing pie & playing war with Popster

We had a very full & fun day

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot. When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow. Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out. I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly. Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes. It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet. Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners. We then made her wear them around the house for a while ...

Molly bike riding????

Popster has been teaching Molly to run along side of his bike. It has been a slow process but she's finally getting it. They start off very slowly....... then speed up a little...... which is when she gets crazy& decides to "carry" the leash...... gradually she feels more comfortable.... then she begins to gallop.... & the ears start to flap!!!!!

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
