My sisters and I had a fun gathering at my house last light. India, my niece, came too and brought me this sweet little lavender sachet that she had made for me. She also brought me a bar of French milled soap, which smells so good.
We chowed down on my homemade chicken salad, which everyone loved, along with fresh strawberries and some cookies and sherbert for dessert.
Lots of talking and laughing took place. Then India and Joanne went home; and Ramey and I settled in for our weekly visit with Raylan Givens of "Justified."
The doggies and I were ready to crawl into bed when the show was over and Ramey said goodnight. I think I got through about two paragraphs of my book before my eyelids refused to cooperate. Skipper and Sophie were asleep by the time their little bodies got stretched out.
Don't have a lot planned for today--just a trip to the post office to mail Beverly's prize package and then some hand quilting--trying to finish up the "Blackberry Creek" quilt. I'd love to have it finished in time for show and tell at the April guild meeting.
I have a stack of quilts to bind as well. Must get started on them soon.
Happy Hump Day, everyone!

Your new little sachet is so cute and I can just imagine how lovely it smells! Would love to have a scratch-and-sniff feature on blogs so we could all get a whiff of your new soap, too. India is so thoughtful!
Am happy to hear that you, Joanne, Ramey, and India had such a delightful time together, too.
I think I'll be putting tuna salad together in a few minutes because warm weather just calls for tuna sandwiches.
Am making progress on different sewing projects, but not UFOs today. I need to wrestle binding onto my Roses in Winter UFO but it's a larger quilt and that's daunting. Are my shoulders ready for that kind of workout???
Be good to you and please give Skipper and Sophie a hug from me.
Hugs!

What a cute gift! Such a springy cheery color. LOL about the doggies being asleep as soon as they are stretched out. I'd love to be a dog sometimes.

That was a really pretty & sweet gifty from India! (I loooove her name, by the way!) And your Sister Suppers always make me miss MY little sister. But it's NOT a bad thing - it makes me happy remembering our fun times together! NOTHING like 'sissies!' Oh! This morning at 8 I will be at UPS mailing your shamefully late birthday gift. A pox on me. But ... gulp ... better late than never??? LOVE YOU & HAVE A WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY!
