I am no quilter and my sewing skills are limited to replacing buttons and fast basting hems but - what about a group quilt project? Maybe this is even one to take off our little backwater thread here. Everyone could make a square and then contribute it all together to make a bigger blanket. Then the blanket could be auctioned off or donated. Just a thought.

Here's to a rain free Monday - enjoy the local parades and hug a chicken and a vet!

Oh, and we went back to the beach club for dinner, and were a little dismayed to see someone had parked very close to the Killdeer nest even though we marked it. But by the time we came out to go home, someone else had found a big wooden spool and two boards to mark it so everyone could see the nest. Yay! Now we just have to hope that the eggs didn't get flooded during all this massive rain and are still viable.

Gladys and Aggie are extremely noisy this morning. Or is it just that my windows are open. My neighbors are going to complain for sure.

You should freeze them and then thaw a day or two before going to cook them depending on your frig.Can you freeze them today

I kept them in the fridge over night and now they are in the freezer. I really wanted to prepare them fresh but I had to do them this passed weekend. Too busy this week to get it done.

We ALWAYS go to Stormville. Another BYC trip we could all take. We were there for Springtime in April. Nice job on the roosters, by the way. Look good enough to eat. Enjoy!

And does your daughter know you posted a picture of her with her hair in a towel? Be careful or you'll end up in freezer camp with the roos.

LOL, funny, I didn't even realize she had a towel on her head. I guess guys miss the little things.
