Ellison Lane Quilts kicked off the
Summer Sampler Sew Along today. The blocks will feature the tasty treats of summer. The first block was a Popsicle. I made a banana one, because those were my favorite as a kid.
Our ice cream man was named Smitty and he looked a lot like Santa Claus. He had a neat old truck, wore red suspenders, and smoked cigars. If you forgot your money, Smitty would front you a cool treat for the walk home from school. We always remembered to pay him back the next day.
I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day. My family was good to me as usual. And I was able to see my mama before she flitted off to the Virgin Islands. My favorite gift was this
Rachael Ray Garbage Bowl.
I usually use a plastic grocery bag beside my cutting board, so I'm styling now.
My usual Sunday family dinner of roasted chicken. I put sun dried tomato and herbed goat cheese under and on the skin before baking. Get the how to
right here. I served the chicken with mashed potatoes, pan sauce, lentils, corn on the cob, salad, and cornbread.
I found a little distraction over the weekend and made a quick tote bag. The instructions can be found here.
Wait. Why are YOU cooking on mother's day??? BAD. :)
