I was unable to update or comment yesterday. But, between the two days, I'm well on my way.
I enjoy hiking to look at the wildflowers in bloom, just before I sit around working on my latest embroidery project while my husband mans the barbecue.
Oh wow! What a wonderful prize today. Those are great patterns.
Is it bad that I had CANDY for my lunch? And I'm super excited because we bought 4lbs of strawberries yesterday to make a new recipe I found for a STRAWBERRY cobbler. It must be good because it's a Paula Deen recipe. YUM
We ate lots of CANDY on SPRING BREAK!
Thank heavens for those bonus words...that gave me delicious strawberries!

My rainbow embroidery is looking great, but what's that caterpillar eating?
4 days=4 words. Oh well. Thank goodness I have a garden to distract me this weekend. Perhaps if I kneel to the garden gods!
oh great patterns to be given away!! did you know that petunia is the wettest word in the dictionary!!!!
Yay, four words today!! The odds are in my favour today! The caterpillar is sitting on a poppy nest of strawberries. Now that would make an interesting drawing! I'm finding these words very inspiring.
Three more words today. Thanks for the bonus!

Thanks so much for the bonus words! A few more words on my "bingo" card today. Have a great day!

Wow, out of 14 words today I only got 2! And there's a caterpillar on my strawberries!
Let's hear it for Amanda!!(Personally I think she should choose the words more often.) Well, recently I saw a robin's nest in the backyard tree and it just put me in the mood for a spring break. Let me tell you I did really enjoy that--I ate strawberries all day,every day--yummy, my favorite fruit.
I love to see a rainbow!
Yipee! 3 words today.
