I love that washer & dryer!
Posted by: moose845 on: June 7, 2008
My new Maytag Epic washer and dryer were installed this past Thursday. Maytag recommends that you use the new “high-efficiency” detergent in these so I had to make a run to Target to get some. The washer uses very little water; in fact, I can hardly see any water in the tub when it’s washing. I [...]
Happy Anniversary, Roger!
Posted by: moose845 on: May 31, 2008
Roger and I celebrated our anniversary on May 24th. We’ve been married 33 years. Is that too long? I ask because we didn’t give each other diamond rings, roses, a cruise, a romantic weekend; we didn’t go out for a romantic dinner or a night of dancing.
He gave me a new washer, and I gave him [...]
Playing with redwork
Posted by: moose845 on: May 4, 2008
I practised my red work this morning and did this floral design. It looks like art deco to me, and I’ve decided that I like this look. Kind of elegant but not too ornate.
We went out for lunch and then to Home Depot to pick up some screws to attach new knobs to the new wardrobe. [...]
My lazy weekend

It’s been a few days since I’ve posted. I stayed home most of this weekend and didn’t do much of anything. We had something going on almost the entire month of March so I was ready to just sit home and take it easy. The only things I did were go to Target, go out for [...]
Little things
Posted by: moose845 on: March 30, 2008
I found these little designs that I did a while ago. These are small so they’ll work great on baby things. I’ve finished up some more designs and just need to test stitch to make sure they sew okay. I hope some of you can use them.
We finally had a Sunday at home. I spent most [...]

The bluebonnets are blooming! Which means (according to my logic) that it’s officially spring in my little corner of Texas. Unfortunately, today’s weather forecast is calling for an 80% chance of severe thunderstorms with large hail and high winds. And some of these have the possibility of turning into tornadoes. The humidity is sitting at 94%. At least the [...]
Yum, these look good!

I’ve been wanting some warm gingerbread with whipped cream for a while now. The kind my mother made when we were growing up. I’m not talking about a gingerbread cookie but a moist, cake-type of gingerbread. The kind the grocery stores sold, many years ago, as a box mix. While searching for the elusive gingerbread, I came across these two recipes. The [...]
