Good morning, friends! It's been a while since I've posted! Two weeks, at least! But I've been busy! Yes, I began a project for our Sami's new (still in the oven) baby, Lottie Lynn. Sam's baby shower is on April 12th and I wanted to have my gift ready! So... I spent very little time on social networks or the TV and got the quilt top done.
Do any of you quilters have a remedy for sore back? I know all the basic tips like sitting straight up...stretch, etc... but have you ever tried a back brace? lol
Goodness, my back gets sore!
The iPhone camera just doesn't take colored shots well! The green is too limey...and the pinks aren't true either. Maybe I should have used my Nikon,
Here's a neat trick I found...When I'm having to count my squares, the material is hard to separate from the layers! I grabbed my pencil eraser and used it! Worked great! But only the red eraser worked...my white one didn't work as well...at all.
This is where I carried my quilt top. I quilted my first quilt myself but am not happy with my work so, I found Sherrie in a town close to me and dropped it off with her. I should get it back on the 7th of April...that will give me at least a week to add a label and finish the binding. I'll post a photo when I get it back.
Announcing!!!

This is Miss Sydney Jo Waid. She belongs to our grandson, Tylar and wife, Sara. They are stationed (Air Force) in Papa, Hungary. For some reason, the military said they couldn't have baby there and were told to go to Vienna, Austria...and they had to be there one month before her arrival date! I don't understand the why of it, at all...oh well...at least she was born in Vienna!! That's where my grandparents were from! I love it! I know they were with them during the birth...Isn't she pretty?!
Even Gampa got in on making baby things! This is a shelf for Sloane and sister Lottie. He also made book shelving for them.
Having great grands is...grand!
Now the food section...lol...Taco Tuesday last week...at Rosa's in Waco.
I saw this on TikTok, so I made it...I Put shredded cheese in the bottom of a muffin pan...then add thinly sliced onion then top with more cheese and baked at 400 for 18 minutes...or longer, if you desire. You don't need to spray the pan with oil.
SOOO good!! Locarb, as well.
Larry cooked up some chicken with cream and green beans!
Then...he got a wild hair and decided we needed to eat something bad! lol
French Fries and bacon gravy with chives! OhMyWord good! You can't eat like this every day...for Sure!
But after the bad-for-you breakfast...he made grilled ribs. Really good stuff!
And here's our SloaneyGirl ...I think Mommy helped her a bit with the drawing...lol...We love her over the Moon!
Then her Lolli (our daughter Crystal) got to come for a short visit...they always have a blast!
And I even got to babysit with her! I bought her a new backpack...Bluey is now her favorite character.
She truly wore herself out dancing and running around the house. We are SO blessed!!
Larry also had his CT Scan done (every 6 mos). Nothing showed up! Yeah! Dr said he likes to keep a recovering bladder cancer patient coming in for regular visits (every 3 months) and every 6 months, the CT scan...for at the very least, 3-5 years.
Larry is still doing well with his bladder treatments for the non-existent cancer...hopefully, it stays that way!!
Well, I guess I'll let you off the hook for today! lol...and I'm sorry for not posting sooner. SO, until next time...
