Tardy


Uh, my last post was 12/4/07?! This little blog is so neglected (not unlike my house plants).

So, we're flirting with the idea of spring here in Minnesota. My husband announced that it's time to put away the mittens and down jackets, but I'm afraid to make the move. Yesterday was glorious, though. Sunny and 68 degrees! How utterly Midwestern of me to be going on about the weather.

The real news is that my oldest son turned 5 on Saturday. Seriously? Like all mothers, I'm wondering where the time went. To celebrate his big day, we had cake and a pinata, oh, and I bought myself a serger! I'm sitting by the window at this very moment waiting for the UPS truck to drive up and deliver my new Juki MO654-DE. Waiting for UPS is essentially the same as the old watched pot never boiling...

I have more updates, including: details on my trip to San Francisco, the amazing Japanese sewing magazines I picked up in Japantown, and some new Lemonade Bag retailers. They will have to wait for now (but on 5 months, I promise) because it's time to make dinner. We're having red lentil dahl. Now if only that serger would arrive!!

Here's a photo of a shorts set I made for some friends' new baby, by the way.
