Long Time

It is hard for me to come to terms with how long it has been since I've written anything.  January has zipped by again.

It has been a busy month getting ready for my winter retreat in CA and spring retreat in MI.  I feel pretty close to ready with everything for California and well on my way to getting things together for the Michigan retreat.

I missed a week with a stomach bug that knocked me down hard and now my husband has his socks knocked off with a miserable cold.  He has been wanting comfort food each day.  I have made the chicken and dumplings, various soups and tonight it is meatloaf.  Do you have favorite comfort foods that make you feel better?  What are they?

For myself I have started the Lucy Boston Patchwork of the Crosses Quilt.  It is english paper piecing and quite a lovely quilt.   I'll share pictures of the blocks with you soon.

Have a wonderful week and try something new!

  1. Oh to survive the winter bugs! Hope you're both back on your feet full steam soon! Would you believe one of my favorite comfort foods when I have a cold (not stomach crud) is tostadas!

  2. The Lucy Boston Patchwork is really intriguing me, but I didn't realize it is paper pieced. Such a lovely quilt that seems to be growing in popularity! Would be a great class. Can't wait to see your blocks.
