to me!
My sister gave me this beautiful package this morning. I love it when the wrapping is as wonderful as the gift inside. (She does have an advantage, working at a store that sells such lovely paper products!)
Inside, I found this wonderful letterpress calendar
This beautiful calendar is made by Linda & Harriett out of Brooklyn, [...]
I said a raspberry lime rickey, but no one seems to know what that is. Morgan’s vote is for black raspberry sorbet, and I think we’ve settled on ‘black raspberry sorbet with a hint of lime’. Long, and not really that catchy…
I started this quilt to use up this fabric — I had ordered a [...]
Morgan gave this camera to me for Christmas last year. I hadn’t seen one before, so I had no idea why he thought I might want this plastic GI Joe-type camera (turns out it was the perfect gift, by the way!). I won’t take the time to list all the attributes of this camera, but [...]

It really is the perfect fabric for a wall hanging - nice and large, and I do love that green color of the pear! Since the white of the fabric was a [...]
I don’t know what it is about this fabric, but I just love looking at it!
