MY spouse just reminded me that tomorrow is my birthday. OMG I do not want anymore birthdays. But since following Dr. Esselstyn's plant based diet, I am feeling better physically and mentally.
This whole process has been a learning experience. Experimenting with recipes, and spending a lot of time in the kitchen. I have been strict, no meat or any animal product. Well oops, that is not quite true I have cheated with a small amount of cheese on my Skyline veggie 3 way. YUM YUM But you just have to top that off with some cheddar.
I made a decision to part with some of the quilts I have put into a stash for my granddaughters after I am gone. I have quite a few, baby and kid sized quilts down there. And just a few days ago I thought, why not donate these to the women's crises center. Let someone enjoy them, and get good use out of them. So I pulled 3 or 4 out of the bin and bagged them up. I am just waiting until I work with Olivia, who has a full time job as a counselor at the shelter.
This week I decided to start a scrappy. Using pinks and purples and yellows. I spent yesterday cutting most of the pieces for the blocks. Bonnie HUnter's Princess Crown block. This block because of all the seams, takes concentrated precision if the blocks are to turn out in some sort of uniformity. I only have stitched up 4 of the blocks, but it will be a good go to project when I want to spend just a little time in the sewing studio. I can stitch up two or three blocks and then go back to whatever. Things like cooking, laundry, finishing painting the kitchen cabinets. ETC ETC.
