I was inspired by a trip to a local bakery to get back to making decorated cookies. Today is lettering practice.

I was cleaning a pile of stuff in my creating space and found this abandoned sewing project. I didn’t like how the waist fit and the fabric under my arms bunched. So today I hacked it apart and adjusted the bodice. Then I added a panel to thread elastic through. Then sewed it back together.

Thanks! The polka dots are an apron. It’s got a cross back so with a few buttons it could function as a dress!

Finished up this dress mashup! The waist needed definition so I added a ribbon. The back was a little too wide, so I stitched in a piece of elastic. If I do this again, I think I’ll shorten the bodice about an inch. 🧶🪡🧵

I don’t remember the last time it was that cool here! That would have made a lovely day for a run!

The rain slowed down to a sprinkle so I decided to take advantage of the cooling effect of rain and get my last few miles of the month.

We occasionally have hot chocolate after swimming in early May. The pool water is usually still fairly cold despite the warm outside temperatures.

Today I made peach jam and then properly canned them. I also have a large uncanned jar of jam that will be used for a few baking ideas and for the tiny biscuits I want to make now!

Today I discovered that you can blanch peaches one day and wait to peel them the next. I ran out of time for making things and popped them in the fridge overnight.

I’m making jam and pie filling. I freeze the pie filling and make peach cobbler throughout the year.

It worked so well I’m on my third batch of blanching. This is my second set of blanched and peeled peaches.

I think I saw from the Nu Thang tour on. I could be wrong and it may have been Jesus Freak tour. But I was definitely listening before it came out.

I saw them multiple times. Mostly because of my upbringing but also because I grew up in a Midwest town the christian bands liked to visit

Started a new pot of spring onions. We had a pot for years but they stopped growing well. I used the leftover bottoms from a grocery store bunch to get this one started.

We often get morning emails to park in the back of the school on the fields so parents can use the parking lot. It’s nice because I get to park closer to my classroom!

I thought about it but I’m on vacation from listening to people whine. It’s not like they have changed any answers since the last time.
