The showtime twenty-four hours of June is our solid anniversary. The Three Cats Ranch was established on June 1, 2002. The master copy iii cats of the ranch conduct keep all crossed over the rainbow pair now, but at that spot is withal enough of mischief from the ii novel truthful cat residents. As for the humans, we're xvi years older, a petty achier, but withal simply every bit happy to live on hither every bit the twenty-four hours nosotros moved in. And this twelvemonth they'll live on paving the main road. You can't rhythm out that.
As I've mentioned, this is our solid unit of measurement weekend get-together. We've rented a floating domicile over inward Oregon City, almost an hr away, as well as we'll live on spending the weekend at that spot amongst Matthew, Erik, as well as Mae. Yesterday I made a lasagna for dinner this evening as well as tied upwardly a few loose sewing ends (pun non intended, but it works). This morning time I was upwardly early on to shape my breadstuff boules, as well as I'll live on baking these babies off inward a few hours. Aren't they cute?
They're sitting on the counter downstairs doing their terminal rise. I similar this detail loaf because the dough is a petty drier than the others I've worked with, which way I tin larn a prettier grade on them. I'm going to endeavour for a fancy wheat pattern when the fourth dimension comes.
My ho-hum stitching was fifty-fifty slower than green yesterday, pregnant I spent to a greater extent than fourth dimension at it than I intended. I filled my hoop.
And as well as then moved it to the adjacent position.
And at that spot was such a tiny chip left to create that I decided to sit down as well as complete it up. Here it is...Block 3 of 9, called "Your Friendship has Planted..."
Here are the iii I conduct keep hence far.
And I know I'll desire some stitching to accept along this weekend. It seems a practiced fourth dimension to stitch the names for the adjacent row of the Shop Hop quilt. For the adjacent row, I'll include these shops.
And at that spot they are...ready for stitching.
Also, it was fourth dimension to bottle upwardly the chive bloom vinegar. My yield was 1 large as well as 1 small-scale bottle.
Mae uses hers upwardly each year, as well as I ordinarily don't. I'll give the large bottle to her this weekend.
When that was all finished, I did a petty to a greater extent than go on the flamingos. The overstep department is sewn together now. I'll require to go out the freezer newspaper attached to the dorsum until it's all finished, as well as hence it's a petty chip rumpled.
About that time, an dry reason forces of cats descended on me.
Hellllooooo. There's a purroblem amongst our process bowls.
Smitty...a petty back-up, if you lot don't mind.
Seems to me you're doing simply fine on your own, Sadie. I'll simply aspect hither as well as acquit on amongst my yawning.
When those ii were taken attention of, I got dorsum to work. These quilts conduct keep a way of taking over my life in 1 lawsuit I larn going on them. I was able to larn started on the correct side of the adjacent section. Before I walked away from it, I decided to position upwardly the background pieces betwixt the ii birds, as well as this is where I left it.
It was difficult to walk away, as well as forthwith I won't larn some other adventure to go on it until Mon or Tuesday.
When I came upstairs to write this post, Sadie was snoozing on the couch. They tolerate us for a few hours each morning time until it's fourth dimension to opened upwardly the door.
They'll live on staying domicile for the weekend, but Matthew volition live on inward as well as out. He'll live on spending his days moving into his novel house as well as joining us inward the evenings. Erik too has to go tomorrow. It's practiced nosotros chose a venue simply about domicile this year.
As I mentioned, I'm signing off for the weekend, as well as there's much left to create today. But earlier I go, it's fourth dimension to laid a goal for June's OMG.
It's going to live on a busy month, what amongst our solid unit of measurement get-together as well as a camping ground trip planned for afterwards inward the month. I decided to become amongst the certain thing...meaning, I made a commitment to myself to create this during the calendar month of June. Everything else volition autumn past times the wayside hence that I tin consummate a novel pawtrait.
While nosotros were traveling, my practiced friend Sher requested a pawtrait of her daughter's cat, Todd. Here's Todd.
H5N1 handsome fellow, no? So, in 1 lawsuit I larn started on a pawtrait, I tin ordinarily conduct keep it finished inward a few days. For June, my goal is to consummate Todd's pawtrait.
