A little of this and that...

First a little game:

What do these fabrics have in common?

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there! I'm sure you all had a busy weekend like we did! Mine started Thursday evening with this:

(Discovered: the batter - without eggs - is almost as good as the finished cheesecake! Yum!)

I made the cake for my mom for Mother's Day. We celebrated with her Friday evening.

After a yummy dinner at a Mexican restaurant, we came to our house for cheesecake and presents.

On Saturday, Mom, Angie and I went on a walking history tour of our downtown area.

Saturday evening, Mark and I left to go spend time with his family for Mother's Day. Lauren, Mary and I arranged flowers for the Mark's grandmothers. We had fun with the arranging and deliveries.

Here is the table set for Sunday dinner with Mark's Mother's gift and her pretty dishes.

Today, I've been puttering around the house. I don't feel the greatest, a result of a cold (or allergies). Oh, well. I've done some laundry and unpacked, as well as getting a start on supper. Brittany's Chicken and Dumplins. Yum!

So have you guessed the answer to the question? You probably went ahead and clicked the link, huh? That's right! I'm gearing up to opening an Etsy shop! It is off to a slow start, but I'm hoping to have some things listed in a few weeks. After May, I won't be working my regular part time job anymore... a big decision for me as I've worked there for about seven years! Nothing wrong, just time to move on. I will probably be babysitting more as well as some volunteering here and there. I am really excited about the shop, though! I will have several aprons listed and some other things. I'll keep you updated! :)

Happy Monday!!

PS~ Yep, I missed Sunday Blessing this week. I didn't get it up before we left. It will be back next Sunday. :)
