Oh, the weather outside is frightful…

Ice Storm

The Quiltbug shop is closed today! And in case you wondered why, here is a poem from my friend, Diana Feit:

“Oh the weather outside is frightful,
But Quilting is so delightful,
And since we’ve no place to go (or any way to get there)
Gonna sew, gonna sew, gonna sew ”

LOL
(The picture above was actually taken December 13, 2008. That’s my back yard, which looks a whole lot more romantic in this picture than it does in real life! Be sure to click on the picture thumbnail to see it up close.)

Food for Fats Friday

We traded food for the food pantry last Friday & Saturday, and look how much we got! There is actually more on the floor and on a side table. I like this picture of me because I actually look like I have a figure.
