And the award goes to…
Talk About It Tuesday The North Carolina State Fair is going on this week. It always makes me nostalgic for the years that I entered knitting and/or crocheted projects into their competitions.

A Goose Called Harry
“Something Good” Sunday This week went by fast. It’s ending on a sad note, in that time is up for my kitty Faye. The signs are there. It’s time for me to make the call to the vet tomorrow to make the appointment to say goodbye to my girl. But, to keep my mind off… →
