Started my oldest on her first cross stitch today. 🥲 it's little barn scene I posted a little ways back.
She's done plastic kits with yarn so knows the general idea. She's doing very well. ❤️
I'm making it for one of my sisters. She's absolutely obsessed with Starry Night, for some reason. She bought 100 wooden spoons in bulk and starting painting it on each of them!
I'll have to try it sometime. Growing up, my mom made cornbread sweet. After it baked, she would melt pats of butter on top and pour pancake syrup over it. It's making it hard for me to imagine having it as savory dressing.
I didn't do that much for Christmas decorating yesterday. I hung up a...

I decided to host a "Friendsgiving" at our house in two days. So far I have 5 confirmed guests: 3 neighbors from across the street, and a couple from the church we just left. I do have an invite out to another woman but haven't heard back yet.
The kitchen is completely torn apart. 💀
Visually it doesn't look like a lot of progress has been made on the kitchen despite the fact that there's been lots! He's built up most of the subfloor, including the section which is under the dishwasher. Unfortunately he found a bit of rot in the sink area. He's going to have to pull all the...
I forgot to post this from the other day. My daughter has expressed interest in trying cross stitch. We'll see if it's something she actually ends up liking or if she's just interested because I'm doing a lot of it right now.
Is the weather vane supposed to be a squirrel??
