TEA ANYONE?

  I finished embroidering ........................ "Tea Anyone" 
and since before i got sick, I have been searching for borders --
AND---what luck!!
I found a whole box of leftover Kim Diehl jelly roll strips 
in my DEEP stash..;))) 

I picked these two colors to bring out the little blue and pink flowers....

            This will be my next hand quilting project after i finish up--
my Autumn Dresden Plate:
↡↡↡                                    ↡↡↡                                 ↡↡↡

I have been stitching away on this in the early evenings..
 one circle at a time...very soothing.....;))) 

I machine quilted the outer edges of the 
inner and outer circle first to hold its 3 layers in place; and am 
hand quilting the rest....no extra borders on this one....

***********************************************
I made two trays of croutons for our salads while putting the borders on
"Tea Anyone?"

I save all the ends of breads and crusts in a baggy in the fridge until
I've collected enough to make a good batch..
then spray with Virgin olive oil
and add various spices;
 then bake in a slow, 200 degree 
oven for one- to one-and-one-half hours until they crisp up..

Once they are COMPLETELY cooled,, I store them in a plastic container....

I am also boiling down my small chicken carcass from yesterday's dinner
to make soup for tomorrow's meal...I like the rich broth it provides

And that, along with laundry, has just about done me in for today--
PHEW...doesn't take much...
I still tire easily--
So,,,,,Thom as stepped up and will be making 
spaghetti sauce for us for tonight's supper...;))) 
He is such a doll....;)))👫💋

I am having a cup of tea right now and resting up....
