My other peony bloomed and it smells great so it's not my nose...it was the other flower without any scent. Thank goodness!
Yesterday was garbage day but it was also time to bake bread.............the rustic, no-knead variety......
My Hotel of Bees shawl/scarf is coming along and I have several rows of the honeycomb pattern to do so it should be showing more progress a little quicker now..............
I've also abandoned my Happy Planner as they did not give me enough room to write....I am a woman with a lot to do! I have been utilizing the little cheap composition book that is my BuJo....bullet journal and I am loving it! Plenty of room to write and you can customize to your own specific needs and lifestyle..........I printed off a 'habit tracker' for my daily chores so I don't have to rewrite them each day. I just color the little square in when it's done......
My artwork is none too fancy but a little coloring makes the tasks seem lighter. Now I need to make a monthly task tracker.
I also went down a few Rabbit Holes yesterday......this might be a regular segment on my blog as I seem to do it on a daily basis!
I need to make some curtains both regular and shower.......
Unfortunately, I don't have a stash of vintage hankies......
Still working on my entryway but it is a far way from looking like this..........so pretty...
Why am I looking at cross stitch? Because Cucki, (my blogging friend) has a group that does The Prairie Schooler patterns (and more) and they chose to do the TPS alphabet but instead of individual pictures some did one big one which I loved! I need to find out how they did it or figure it out myself....this might take me a while! LOL! Cucki, are you still working on yours?
How was your Tuesday? Did you go down any 'rabbit holes'? There was an orange chicken crock pot recipe too but it wouldn't download (it's on my food board on Pinterest if you're interested).....I'm sure there will be more RH's today! LOL!
Have a great one.....storms coming here again. Glad I got some laundry outside on the line yesterday. It will be a good day for ironing it!
Happy Trails!

While I was looking at those I found another one that I loved too.....but of course! This would go so nice in my 'future' bedroom..............

Hi Sam :) Oh, if only my entryway could look like that! I think that's a pipe dream for me lol...we've (so far) found all of our drapes and curtains second hand at bazaars and thrift stores. I used to sew a lot more, but there aren't many fabric stores in this area and I like to touch and feel them before I buy them, so I don't really want to buy online. I love the hanky drapes though!
ReplyDeleteYour bread looks great! And I'm happy that you can smell the flowers, that would have worried me too! :)
I have to order everything online here...the fabric isn't so bad as I usually go with cotton but the yarn is a 'crap shoot' for sure! LOL! Yes, I am happy about the one flower smelling as every time something like that happens I blame it on getting older which is true I am getting older but I just don't want too many side effects! LOL!
DeleteHI happy Wednesday my dear
ReplyDeleteSuch happy day :)
Awesome my love xxx
Are you working on the Prairie Schooler Alphabet?
DeleteI have a stash of vintage hankies, but they are all different sizes. Cute idea though.
ReplyDeleteThe ones in the picture looked really big! Lucky you with a 'stash' of them!
DeleteYou are such a busy lady. I love that entryway. So pretty! I would like to make some curtains for our trailer but I refuse to pay the price for the material at the fabric stores, so I'm at a loss right now. Yesterday was just a busy day of errands for me and I was exhausted at the end of it. Have a lovely day and stay safe in the storms my friend.
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Betsy
There are some places online that have clearance and sales and Craftsy, fabric.com and Fat Quarter shop all have clearance fabric. You might find something there or at the local thrift store. If you have a Joann's Fabric Store that is pretty reasonable too from what I hear/remember. Shopping and driving always exhaust me....even the online shopping is tiring! LOL! Rest up, sweetie!
DeleteNo rabbit holes but I do plan to CO for a new KAL. I have yet to start and hope to start today if I have time. Lots to do today with school having its early dismissal and Jellybean has swimming now.
ReplyDeleteOh and your bread looks yummy! I can see the forming crust and smell the yeast from here.
DeleteOh, what KAL...is it the Joji Locatili one....Starting Point? It's mystery KAL and I would love to join but 5 skeins of fingering weight would break me...I'm gathering supplies to dye my own as we speak.
DeleteYummy homemade bread! Love curtains made out of old hankies or even doilies. So pretty! Do you still use your yahoo email? Every time I try to use centurytel.net my email is bounced back so I never know if you are getting my messages or not.
ReplyDeleteI never get any...I will call them....I get everyone elses....America is so NOT free anymore! They probably think coming from the middle east that you're a terrorist! It really angers me that people can't count! There are more murders from Americans than terrorists in this country.....people need to stop being such scardie cats although the media and the government encourage us to be scared so they have an excuse to go to war! Oh, don't get me going on how the American people are so gullable! Sorry....I will call them and give them 'what for'....I'll let you know what they say.
DeleteIt's been a crazy kind of day around here! We even managed to go to Wally world twice...don't ask! hahaha! I have a roast in the crock pot and I may make a big bowl of mashed potatoes for hubby. He's still trying to gain weight. I used to write more in my journal...now I write less! Enjoy your day sweet lady. Don't work too hard! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteYes, at our age a bit of fat is good, I say! I wish I had to gain but I need to eat even healthier than I do as I slip into the old recipes of comfort food too easily. I hope he is gaining strength and feeling better! Your dinner sounds yummy!
DeleteOh yes... always rabbit holes around here too :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous peony. Still waiting for mine to blossom.
Love that Dutch oven bread. I've been wanting to make a few loaves for friends for a few days now, but just haven't gotten around to it. Must be because of those rabbit holes ~~LOL!!
