Bits & Bobs

The weather here has been up, down and all around the town, so to speak.  We've had temps up to the 80's and then back to the 50's during the day with freezing temps at night.  Strange stuff.  Through it all, the flowers are doing their thing. 

The third clematis on that trellis is struggling and is a little thing.  We'll see how it does through the summer.

 The azaleas in front of the house are also in full bloom.  I'm surprised all of these flowers didn't suffer worse in the storms that came through last night. 

A few nights ago I was scratching  my head trying to figure out what to fix for dinner and this is what I came up with.   Pork cutlets. 

They were quite good with steamed broccoli and roasted potatoes.  

I made a batch of face masks for various family members and ourselves.  Was not a difficult chore but not a fun one. 

And, last but not least, here's a view from down the road on the way to my house. 

Y'all be safe and take care 

Hello There

Hello everybody.  Hope you're staying home and being safe these days so much as possible. 

My quilting hobby has prepared me quite well for long hours at home and I'm doing fine.  This is a quilt top made for a soon to be high school graduate.

Some time back I made little 8 inch square wool applique pillows for my buddies and I think they turned out really cute. 

I'm getting ready to start on a new group project too and I'm looking forward to it. 

We've had early summer like days recently, up to the low 80s, but today its back down to the low 40's and damp.  Got to actually bring in a plant tonight because of the danger of freezing.  Sigh.  

Y'all stay safe, stay home unless necessary and we'll get through this.
