Hello and welcome to anyone new visiting from Vickie's Spun Sugar Quilts blog. I had such a nice time doing a little interview and giveaway over there. You can win a stack of 8 fat quarters from the Sugar Pop line if you head on over and leave a comment letting us know your favorite city. Vickie will randomly select a winner on Monday, March 28. Best of luck!
There has been a lot of hubbub around here lately as we are switching bedrooms, moving fruniture, decluttering, reorganizing and getting ready for an upcoming garage sale. Just typing that made me a little tired. It is exciting though, and with a few tweaks, we kinda feel like we live in a whole new apartment. I will share our progress on all of that very soon, but right now things are kinda in shambles. That's why yesterday was total magic; bliss of the best kind. An unexpected day of fun right smack dab in the middle of the week. Ryan had the day off and we made the most of it instead of running around frantically trying to maximize the amount of work we could get done.
It all started with doughnuts! Ryan has been perfecting his recipe and with a lot of patience and trial and error, he made these treats. He is still working it out, and is learning quickly that baking is an exact and delicate process.
Rylie reminds us everyday that she is minutes away from crawling and it may be a good time to remove the glass from the bookshelf. Have I mentioned here that we have been calling her Doodles? It's her nichkname and it fits her to a tee.
Around noon, Ryan said "Hey, let's go for a walk to the park before it rains. And we should really stop at the French market for more coffee, don't you think?" Umm...Yes, definitely.
At the park, we introduced Rylie to sand. Her and sand got along brilliantly, that is, until she wanted to put it in her mouth.
On the way home, it started to rain. The drops were big and fat and they darkened the sidewalk fast.
But, in Southern California, the sun is never gone for long, and by the end of the day everything was glitzy as Hollywood. And then look what happened...
