Breakfast faces



We have been having high fibre muffins for breakfast on a fairly regular [ha ha] basis these days. Check out these faces:

Happy Face and Monkey Face! Now those are mugs that are worth waking up for.

A fun little bag





I have been feeling a little crafty lately. The pattern for this bag is from Bend-The-Rules Sewing by Amy Karol.

I started it yesterday and finished it this afternoon. I like the sense of accomplishment I am feeling just now so I'm showing you the final product.

An Inspiring Quote


This past week I have been reading Mrs. Miniver (by Jan Struther) and enjoying her musings about the world around her immensely. I was inspired to read it by Jane Brocket from Yarnstorm who mentioned in her book The Gentle Art of Domesticity that it was a good read. There are a number of great quotes throughout the book but this is the one that jumped out at me today:


"......it oughtn't to need a war to make us talk to each other in buses, and invent our own amusements in the evenings, and live simply, and eat sparingly, and recover the use of our legs, and get up early enough to see the sun rise."


All things that I want more of in my life.
