What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Good morning, my friends, and happy Saturday. It's going to be a busy couple of days here. I have some cooking to do. The kids are coming up for dinner tomorrow. On today's agenda is to make two salads. Tomorrow I'll do some baking. Mike is going to do some burnt ends. Here's a picture of some he made earlier in the year.

We liked them so much the first time we made them, we really wanted to share them with the kids. Erik loves barbecue, and he's an excellent barbecue chef in his own ...

Good morning, my friends. It was a short drive to Aurora yesterday, and that meant we had a leisurely morning in Colorado Springs. We stayed until just before noon, and then headed north. While we waited, Mike and Smitty took their shadow selves out for a final walk.

Eventually ...

Good morning, my friends. It's another busy day ahead. Happily, there's nothing that will take me away from home for at least several days. Just staying home makes the day a whole lot more peaceful. My apologies for teasing you with the quilt shop for the past few days. I'll finish off with our time traveling posts today and tell you all about it. But first, an update on yesterday's activities.

There were pickled beets to finish off. I managed to get five pints from my paltry harvest. As I mentioned, I supplemented with a few ...

Good morning, my friends. The craziness of the week continues today with a trip to the grocery store. Our list is long, and I'm dreading it. Oh well. This too shall pass. And this busy week shall pass. 

There was no time for sewing yesterday, although plenty was accomplished. I might have spent a little time on it late in the day, but I was tired by then. The drive across town was every bit as awful as I expected it to be, taking much longer when I was delayed for ten minutes while a train crossed the road ...

Good morning, my friends. As I mentioned in an earlier post, it's going to be a busy week for me. Today I'm driving across town to pick up a check for a classical guitar I sold on consignment. It's been at Old Town Music for over a year, and so I'm happy to get it sold. As long as I'm out, I'm going to make a quick stop at the grocery store to pick up something for tonight's dinner. I hate shopping on Monday's. We'll save our bigger shopping trip for ...

Good morning, my friends. In my mental wanderings of yesterday, I decided to tell you about our trip as each of the three days unfolded. But first, I'll catch you up on the day's activities here at home. My to-do list is long for each day this week, but I'm only looking at one day and one item at a time. Doing it that way will keep me from driving myself crazy. 

So let's talk about what's going on in the garden first. It was a day for hoeing, but first, I walked around to ...

Good morning, my friends. Our weather has improved significantly here, and we had a pretty view of the mountains this morning.

Good morning, my friends. 2022 is in its final throes. I can't say I'm sorry to see it go, although plenty of good stuff happened during the year. I'm afraid it will always go down in our memories as the Year of the Plumbing Catastrophe. We'll still be dealing with that at the beginning of 2023, but I do believe we're in the home stretch. We're just waiting now for some custom baseboards to replace the ones that got broken. When those are installed, the project will be finished.

But let's not get ...

Okay, these images are from our second day at Hocking Hills State Park. As I write this, we've moved on to Starved Rock State Park in Illinois. I'll tell you more about that in tomorrow's post. For now, I'm catching up on the days we were without internet. Our cell signal here is weak, and so I'm only hoping I can get my pictures uploaded. Let's just see about that right now, shall we? Here we go.

We started at the Cedar Falls trail.

Let's get in the time traveling machine and travel back three days to when we arrived at Hocking Hills State Park in Ohio.
