it has been the prettiest day today
the sky is blue
the air is fresh
and the
Japanese Maple is just glowing
as I made a coffee this morning
the light was just so clear and bright
the water in the lake was blue
which it hasn't been these past few days
no geese
no ducks
no beavers
just a crow
fishing
last evening I saw the beaver swimming from this side to the other with a branch in its mouth
no chance for a photo as he was high tailing it home
and the heron was there too in the dim light of dusk
so pretty sometimes
:)
this was my breakfast this morning
a strawberry and banana muffin made with
gluten free "flour"
husband is responding well to the g f and I can eat a muffin
or two
and when they turn out this
yummy
I do!!!
I showed you some nice cotton I had found last week
so here is the shawl I made with it
pattern
this time with a simple edge
the reverse sc or crab stitch
as I ran out of the yarn and had to be very careful
used every single centimeter of it
and
as pink goes so well with green
and I am such a fashionista
while sweeping the floor in the
roomontheleft
a bead rolled out from under
a pink bead
a rosy quartz
or somesuchstone
I made another bracelet
they take no time once you have gathered the doings
and searched through the bead stash
this time a nice shiny flowery silvery one
to hold it all together
hope you all hold it together this weekend
have a good one folks
thanks for stopping by
:)
It does look like it was a glorious day. Our weather has pretty much been the pits so far in May. Mostly hazy and dusty and is getting hotter and hotter. Love that shawl. I don't know why I don't do more with cotton. I only ever think to use it for covering jars, making doilies or dishcloths. Must branch out more. Must do some baking today, too. Have a wonderful weekend. Tammy
