Buying Linen

March 19, 2021

This is why it's so hard to buy linen online but . . I'm not complaining because obviously, I'm not having any trouble finding stuff to buy, but it really is kind of a guess as to what you're going to get. Here's a photo of the linen I ordered and what it looks like with the light from my magnifying lamp. Here's what it looks like with natural light. The picture on the website is ...

Floss & Charts

March 19, 2021

Totally unrelated to this blog post but the my blog guru is going to work on the blog during the next few days. There are plug ins and themes that are no longer being used and need to be cleaned up; some of the colors don't meet the "standards". I don't think there will be much visible difference as far as what we see but be aware that things may be wonky or the blog may not load quickly or ...

A Surprise Cinnamon Roll

March 19, 2021

Yesterday evening Jeremy called on his way home from Sam's Club and said he was bringing me a surprise. That was the best cinnamon roll I have ever had . . and I've had a lot of cinnamon rolls. I exercised a bit of self control, cut it in half, ate half last night and had the other half for breakfast. I woke at 4:12 a.m. thinking about that cinnamon roll but managed to go back to ...

Vaccine Update

March 19, 2021

I had the Moderna vaccine if anyone is wondering. Yesterday afternoon I was back to feeling fine. I picked up a few sticks in the yard, vacuumed, made crawfish cornbread for dinner (even though I thought I wouldn't be hungry for dinner). Here's a funny story. When I was buying groceries the other day, I wanted a bag of crawfish tails. I couldn't find them in the store so I asked an employee ...

The Second Covid Vaccine

March 18, 2021

It totally kicked my butt. I often say I'm not a wimp but maybe I am a wimp. I'm so rarely sick that I'm thinking I don't handle being sick very well. When they checked my temp before I got the shot, it was 97.4, which is what my normal temp. I got the shot, picked up a few things I needed at the grocery store and came home. About 2 p..m., which was about 4 hours after the injection, I began ...

Flamingo Umbrella

March 18, 2021

How did I forget to mention the flamingo umbrella I found at Hobby Lobby the other day? I walked in and it was the first thing I saw. It was $14.99 and I knew they were doing away with the 40% off coupon but I wasn't sure when it started (It has started!). I put the umbrella in my cart . . just in case. When I got to the checkout, I asked if they were still doing the 40% off coupon. The ...
