Baby Blanket....done!

I am super excited to brag about my most recent accomplishment.  I figured out how to crochet a ripple...the design, and then I applied it to this...a baby blanket enroute to Cincinnati.  Beth...I enjoyed making this for your little angel; I hope the colors are what you had in mind.   

Thank you Beth for sending me an update...here she is...with the blanket I made. 

The Mad Potter

For our wedding anniversary, my friend and MOH...Kim, got us a gift certificate to The Mad Potter.  Eighth anniversaries...should be a gift of ceramics, and this was where we spent our Saturday morning.  Mack and JMS painted a race car bank, and I painted a garden gnome....looks like the travelocity guy.  JMS ran out of "concentration" at about 30 minutes into the project.  So, Mack took him next door to Baskin Robbins.  This was the "kodak" moment we thought to share. 

Help I fell off my blog and I couldn't get up...

Acknowledgement is the first step. 

1.  "I have not blogged in FOREVER!" 
2.  I almost couldn't remember my log-on information.
3.  I am working too much. 
4.  I haven't been cooking for my family...nor grocery shopping. 
5.  I am not finished with my crochet project.
6.  JMS is still worth reporting about....a few new things:  he has a worm collection in one of my flower pots, he recently visited pop and grandma in SC...and now uses the phrase "save some for later" quite a bit, and he tells me regularly that he is not ready for school yet. 

I'm sorry to my dedicated readers.  I will try harder.  :)
