HMB and I are back from our first transcontinental trip together in one piece! I already miss my family, all the extra hands and home cooked meals I didn’t have anything to do with (other than to eat them), but the blow of returning home was cushioned by many things including Moondoggie, my sewing machine and some really fun packages waiting for me.
I don’t write often enough about the blogs I read and love- probably because I assume you guys are already reading them. But if you don’t already read Jodie’s blog Ric-Rac, I highly recommend adding it to your bloglines (or what have you) forthwith. Not only are her dolls and softies absolutely adorable, the stories she writes about them are perfectly charming, and the stories she tells about herself? They make me giggle out loud. I get such a lift every time I read one of her posts. One of my super fun happy pieces of mail was something I ordered from her etsy shop. She is very definitely a pro! It was packaged so sweet
And even better when opened
And the perfect project for returning home jetlagged (and worse, with a jetlagged baby who was convinced that 3:30 am was wakey time), but with a serious yen for getting back to crafting. So now I’ve got a new addition to my birdy corner in the craft room.
Welcome friend!
