Sigh, I want to pull weeds even. Cause I love to pull weeds when I feel good. Sometimes even when I feel rotten. It is theraputic to me. But everything has a season I know. We have had so much more snow this season than in many years. That will be good for our soil. And the spring rains will be also. Patience. Patience. But I have a bad case of the I wants. :o)</div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Here I am. All fine and dandy. Life has been busy and challenging since my last post, but all is well. <a href="http://www.theblacksheepcottage.blogspot.com/">Penny</a> and I finished <a href="http://www.orangecountyhomegrown.org/">Farmer's Market</a> at the end of October. We then went straight into show season . And we did bunches! Some great, some good and others horrible. But life is a live and learn experience. We go by the idea of, we will try it once and then know if it is worth vendoring at the next year. I crocheted my lil' heart out until after Christmas. Here are a few pics of our booths.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I started being a fine art instructor for <a href="http://www.michaels.com/">Michael's</a> in January. This is through <a href="http://www.grumbacher.com/">Grumbacher</a> painting supply company. I am teaching acrylic painting. And I also have ANOTHER new job. A real, big girl job. I am an office coordinator for a counseling office. Currently they have 6 therapists and one intern. Love it! Super busy. They treat me amazing and have been very patient in my learning. This has been huge for me. I haven't worked for several years since I closed my shoppe due to my health issues. But I have been feeling better and wanted to try this. I just have to try. I am encouraged that I have been able to think clearly enough to learn and function in the "real world". You know the world outside my safe comfort zone and cozy pjs and crochet hook/paint brush. And in the midst of all this, I turned 50! So folks yes, there is life after 50. I honestly feel like I have started living all over again. God is good.</span></span><br />

Easypeasy and so yummy. Cut red peppers in half. Remove the core and seeds. Pat dry. Place on an older baking tray or cookie sheet in a 450degree oven with the skin side up. Remove when the skin has become blackened. Place in a glass dish and cover with plastic wrap. The steam will help you remove the pepper's skin. Allow to cool.Once cool, with your fingers, remove the skin. Do no use water as this will remove yummy juices. To preserve, slice and freeze or cover with extra virgin olive oil and refrigerate. I was thrilled with the results. I also purchased ice cube trays to store my herbs in. I will gather them, dice them and place them in the trays. Then cover them with EVOO (You may also use melted unsalted butter) and place in freezer. Once frozen, I will store the cubes in labeled freezer bags. My herbs to preserve are basil, parsley, thyme, sage and rosemary. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Do you have an actual emergency first aid kit? I do not. I have made a list of all the items that I think we should have in one, portable carrier. Not just in the medicine cabinet. My plan is to work on this over the next couple of weeks. I have a small craft storage container that will be perfect. The divided top section removes and the lower section is divided into 3 parts. It has a tight locking lid and double handles. Here is a partial list of items I am including. Hand sanitizer, antiseptic wipes, assorted band aids, pain relief ointment, teflon pads, gauze pads, self adhesive tape, ace bandage, disposable gloves, small scissors, tweezers, Ibuprofen, white wash cloths and a arm sling. I have just had this on my mind for some time that I should do this. Weather related emergencies happen. We need to be more aware and prepared. </div><div style="text-align: center;">I am linking up to http://homesteadrevival.blogspot.com/ This is a wonderful website with a vast amount of information.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxHfzRDuJ2nTj55Qyeot7BsnDrPL7kbtL2MdMYXk5GNfl_PhNbWqQ1dxY_seDBwJCqzjHm8OncAuEVfFuSTC3V3NxZP_twjtRQn8H36Cs3RPNgKh07HJtkyqc6FbY-BOuyAhddww/s1600/Preparedness-Challenge-Button.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxHfzRDuJ2nTj55Qyeot7BsnDrPL7kbtL2MdMYXk5GNfl_PhNbWqQ1dxY_seDBwJCqzjHm8OncAuEVfFuSTC3V3NxZP_twjtRQn8H36Cs3RPNgKh07HJtkyqc6FbY-BOuyAhddww/s1600/Preparedness-Challenge-Button.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">I am blessed ~Angela</div>Angelahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07305171049063634796noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35561843.post-70459703802601134462012-07-29T05:12:00.000-04:002012-07-29T05:12:56.619-04:00Get Well Pressies<div style="text-align: center;">I had a bit of surgery on the 18th.

She is a Jim Shore resin piece. LOVE her! And sweet Venda. So glad we have reconnected after a few years of business/moving away. The details are so much prettier in person. Love the two girls walking in friendship. That covered so much for us. Our love of girls and our friendship also. Thank you again honey! Taking the pics with my phone makes them not so clear. But so much faster. :0)<br />

It is made from 30's reproduction fabric. Adorable. This girl is clever I am telling you!<br />
<br />
I am so thankful for my family and friends. They are great encouragers and support. Very grateful also to Penny and Heather for manning our Farmer's Market booth the past 2 weeks without me. I know they are having some bonding time (hahahaha) but still appreciate them so much.<br />

The recipe is pretty simple. It creates a very moist cake. To your favorite 2 layer butter cake recipe add 1/2 c honey and 1-2 T of fresh or dried lavender blossoms. (I used local honey and lavender from my backyard which made it pretty cool.) Bake according to your recipe. Allow to cool until slightly warm to touch. For the glaze, blend 1/2 cup sifted powdered sugar to enough warm water to create a nice thin glaze. This is purely up to how thick you wish for your glaze to be. Spoon over cake, covering completely. Place a few sprigs of lavender on top and sprinkle1/2 teaspoon lavender buds. A fresh and summery cake. Would be delish with lemonade or a glass of iced sweet tea. Enjoy!</div><div style="text-align: center;">I am blessed. ~Angela</div>Angelahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07305171049063634796noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35561843.post-48281625788067900432012-07-13T00:12:00.000-04:002012-07-13T00:12:29.724-04:00Pay It Forward<div style="text-align: center;">I love doing this. I joined up at <a href="http://www.polkadotsandrickrack.blogspot.com/">Polka Dots & Rick Rack</a>. And am now offering you the opportunity to play along. Here is how it goes...the first 3 people to comment that they wish to join will be gifted a handmade goody from me within the next 12 months. (I always do it much much earlier to make sure I do not forget!). You in turn, post on your blog and do the same for the first 3 that join. And the lovin's just keep on going. I ask that you have an active blog. Makes it easier to get your 3 PIF friends. Be sure to post when you receive your pressie.

My poor lupus hands are screaming. But I have to crochet! It is a needful, gotta do, kinda thing. For my sanity you know. This yarn is very pretty. Soothing, restful colors that do not overwhelm my senses but just lets me flow along. It has a grey twist to it that makes it very nice. Will post when I have it finished. Working on a few bigger pieces for our autumn/winter shows. I have another shawl started in more folkart colors. It is a triangle shawl. I have been calling it The Beast. hahaha I never have 2 projects going. I know I am strange. It stresses me to know there is something unfinished and I have started another project.

I made this lil' Bethany Bear on the fly. Writing up the pattern as I went.Thinking I will make more of her. She is made from wool and is very lightly stuffed. Her dress is closed at the bottom. Her hanger is ricketyrack. Right now she is hanging on our everyday tree, but will go on the Christmas tree one of these days. There is no mouth, that is just the stitch holes. Doesn't look so obvious in person. Bethany is 7-inches tall.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg54Kl4aSeLJjE9E4sgDCHkwZ0oJGJKZbI5Zo3qU1YBGAYesQU854_gKipWyD75EH7LfrOR5Nog-VmyPgjF3ZBmfak5iXzhE26ERLdq3RaLFdgY7W60GUOB3uWciotUq-jIAK0RbA/s1600/bear2NEW.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg54Kl4aSeLJjE9E4sgDCHkwZ0oJGJKZbI5Zo3qU1YBGAYesQU854_gKipWyD75EH7LfrOR5Nog-VmyPgjF3ZBmfak5iXzhE26ERLdq3RaLFdgY7W60GUOB3uWciotUq-jIAK0RbA/s320/bear2NEW.jpg" width="253" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyAB9wCGRSjxZX38mtnP8Y79ShlJfHmnv40LjVwdrqp_fPuxStMSeehZFsQ8UpdTVcNDoKeR5eng8mJeo8SFjMJhAnLTTuiogNNkAee0qUNgFQ8tqXy_7BG5hL9_T_yettqH11BA/s1600/box.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="242" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyAB9wCGRSjxZX38mtnP8Y79ShlJfHmnv40LjVwdrqp_fPuxStMSeehZFsQ8UpdTVcNDoKeR5eng8mJeo8SFjMJhAnLTTuiogNNkAee0qUNgFQ8tqXy_7BG5hL9_T_yettqH11BA/s320/box.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkcVzZi78bmFpuzAkajk0QoYieYRMATkrZlK29a-T6hSsAWliP9vFYpL-4PvgI_-oVuUgJ8_9LuTwqaTSNQUb60oN6_3noHQ8GPQnaOSO9WxxZ4SmCbmayT7S8OwCbfvo-P_UA-g/s1600/tag2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkcVzZi78bmFpuzAkajk0QoYieYRMATkrZlK29a-T6hSsAWliP9vFYpL-4PvgI_-oVuUgJ8_9LuTwqaTSNQUb60oN6_3noHQ8GPQnaOSO9WxxZ4SmCbmayT7S8OwCbfvo-P_UA-g/s320/tag2.jpg" width="242" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Look at this sweet box of goodies my retreat girlies gave me. Amgela's Advent Box. Sorry the tag photo is not very clear. It is all adorable. There is a sewn bag with a tag for each day. I had to wait about 2 weeks before I could bust into this baby!!! Oh the agony. Thankfully I had other distractions, Thanksgiving here and chemo, to keep me occupied. I will share along the way some of the sweet things I received. Miss Laura's daddy built the box. It is an awesome gift in itself! These ladies are simply amazing and I am blessed to call them my friends. Their thoughtfulness and encouragement is just boundless. Thank you my lovelies! You know who you are!!! I love you.<br />

Today is my sweet sister <a href="http://www.theblacksheepcottage.blogspot.com/">Penny's</a> birthday. I hope you can hop over and give her a birthday greeting.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I am a blessed girl. Family, friends, home and health (Even bad health is good health when you think of the alternative! Our daddy says any day you wake up above the green is a good day.) There is just so much to be thankful for. God is good to me in ways I cannot imagine, in ways I do not even see. I know I keep my guardian angels quite busy on a slow day!<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The image below is a coloring page you can click on and print for the munchkins at your house on Thanksgiving Day.

A good frolic is good for a puppy he thinks.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Our retreat last week was so good. My friends are amazing women with talents for friendship and for sewing/crafting.

Farmer's Market is over for the season. BUT we did 2 shows the following 2 Saturday's. Both were wonderful shows. And now we are heading to our annual autumn retreat with our online quilting friends, Backporch Friends, tomorrow. Just one more sleep. Love my girlies!! Our May retreat will be our 10th year!!! We are planning some special things for that one don't ya know!!! Would love to have all of the past attendees who could, come back. I have also started a booth in an antique mall with my sister Debbie. It is a really nice mall, lots of primitives and a good overall variety of wares. Still in the getting it stocked phase.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

She has more than this, but has it at the cooperative right now.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1dDn-t2I9dfifmsUzR3lwIObzDTBxWd2t8p4JdR_Gj-SDZCU462Z8wGAbz5Ze2yCR_KmS058qxdJs1SbnN7wsxc81U5rytM6uq41OWoToYWrxtEpEbnKKe324OkjO7GwO4ZGBIw/s1600/me+in+booth.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="207" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1dDn-t2I9dfifmsUzR3lwIObzDTBxWd2t8p4JdR_Gj-SDZCU462Z8wGAbz5Ze2yCR_KmS058qxdJs1SbnN7wsxc81U5rytM6uq41OWoToYWrxtEpEbnKKe324OkjO7GwO4ZGBIw/s320/me+in+booth.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGdxKKiv3ml6Zlgb7HuPY6aTxobd0Yk6xcv_e45A9Qiqfjb87TnrTybBXYRLLvmzr4nqfKvS41RNLzTtBMbOfbMbFNAzetFGxdSlLVfJ5lttKe6p-CzUjSB7q_YV03i4_p3J7zRA/s1600/booth.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="241" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGdxKKiv3ml6Zlgb7HuPY6aTxobd0Yk6xcv_e45A9Qiqfjb87TnrTybBXYRLLvmzr4nqfKvS41RNLzTtBMbOfbMbFNAzetFGxdSlLVfJ5lttKe6p-CzUjSB7q_YV03i4_p3J7zRA/s320/booth.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirMjTdE_UxezGo1QE-ceRfg1AfsaWnQ978Qgk_fK1uWyDBYHV_EDJ6rwGmXBWSxUDolzYfZsPJvz0AsYHPziGcxpzVtCmEt1rk0G4_P1krJkCZSxVl9d35fIIomLdkr0k4bTp-IA/s1600/booth2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirMjTdE_UxezGo1QE-ceRfg1AfsaWnQ978Qgk_fK1uWyDBYHV_EDJ6rwGmXBWSxUDolzYfZsPJvz0AsYHPziGcxpzVtCmEt1rk0G4_P1krJkCZSxVl9d35fIIomLdkr0k4bTp-IA/s320/booth2.jpg" width="320" /> </a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_j7j8SmDcUtYgmfCA2jLJGo2kLe5sW9ewsUvZo8Y3AgzTnjFnQgMYVXiGdwItqwSE7ckucQXJDhrtMhb4eiWYEL-l9iFtl4hsLKWsRcTRYABioPUpa9Q3YN6PrTuMMzO8sS7Izg/s1600/booth3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_j7j8SmDcUtYgmfCA2jLJGo2kLe5sW9ewsUvZo8Y3AgzTnjFnQgMYVXiGdwItqwSE7ckucQXJDhrtMhb4eiWYEL-l9iFtl4hsLKWsRcTRYABioPUpa9Q3YN6PrTuMMzO8sS7Izg/s320/booth3.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAWfzuqOKOlhrG8SdMSOHZ51NCP9ne3mLvNFXtIKuMhupygmFYBaa1HXtM4ZIilz7RYHyhLHietL3056A0y3VZf8lEfHTDW8FIRZSL53UaZizkcbAK2GA1PsoqSgPwYSeYXTiLFw/s1600/booth4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="198" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAWfzuqOKOlhrG8SdMSOHZ51NCP9ne3mLvNFXtIKuMhupygmFYBaa1HXtM4ZIilz7RYHyhLHietL3056A0y3VZf8lEfHTDW8FIRZSL53UaZizkcbAK2GA1PsoqSgPwYSeYXTiLFw/s320/booth4.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHkyOD7o3Nu-SaqTkQI9wrUsgE1RIO3KHuG9x8-VBLcep-tPLEvBr2V2k-5qX-zxUBxougWxwdnxfVsoQ7P0nlF4Cf7eEZ6jJrto53h-N3JzWP-ZhqKfmXdw52EUDTZrh4kFDNLQ/s1600/booth5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="223" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHkyOD7o3Nu-SaqTkQI9wrUsgE1RIO3KHuG9x8-VBLcep-tPLEvBr2V2k-5qX-zxUBxougWxwdnxfVsoQ7P0nlF4Cf7eEZ6jJrto53h-N3JzWP-ZhqKfmXdw52EUDTZrh4kFDNLQ/s320/booth5.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">And of course our hats. We nearly sold out. Seriously! It was crazy. I am going to be hooking it like mad to get some inventory to the places I have promised them. Penny too. We have already been planning what new things to make for the market next year. Gotta have something new each year to excite everyone.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><p>Hope everyone is doing well.
