So happy to be working on my tiny house again!

Once again it has been some time since my last entry. It seems days go by and then I think of something interesting to write about and then it leaves me as I get side tracked. I think what will work best is to keep it short but sweet.
So here you are short but sweet... Blackberries picked from my back yard and voila my famous blackberry tart.

Well last week was a whirl wind week with so much happening in our house hold.
My daughter was in rehearsals everyday and we also needed to get her organized for a week long camping trip the day after her big end of the year dance show. To top it off my husband had his big year end show too, The Leo Awards.
Needless to say it was a bit hectic.... thank god my two boys are self sufficient.
I managed to fit in two doll orders and one for our silent auction.

For some reason I feel like I'm in limbo these days.

I get all inspired to create when I sift through my supply cupboard and then I get side tracked as I have to walk the dog or drive someone to somewhere. Make dinner or wait a minute there is a break in the sky... I can pull a few weeds or plant a few rows of seeds in the veggie garden. Honestly there are times I feel like I have A.D.D.

I long for a good stretch of sunshine so I can start working on the tiny house again.

Having said that I managed to finish a project last week and put in my etsy store.
Now to tackle all the wool sweaters laying on the floor that need to be cut into doll patterns.

Just received lovely mohair socks in the mail the other day. My friend Gillian introduced me to this fantastic product and now that I have worn them all winter long..... I can't imagine wearing anything else.

After cutting the grass the other night and enjoying the freshly manicured lawn I noticed a cute forget-me-not growing out of the rock wall... how sweet. Sadly a few feet away I discovered my kiwi is being chewed up... weevils perhaps. I need to find a natural way of getting rid of these insects to stay true to my organic gardening practices. Any ideas most welcome.
