Free Pattern

I purchased a dress pattern and this free

ruffled capri pattern came with it.

I already have more than enough ruffled

pants patterns...so, this is up for grabs

if anyone wants it :)

Just let me know in a comment and

leave your e-mail address so I

can forward the pattern.

It's for the beginner seamstress so it

should be pretty easy.

I can only give the pattern away once...

(wouldn't want to take any profit away

from the original owner)

If you think you may want to purchase it...

you can look it up on Etsy :) It's only $4.

On Shelves Next Wednesday

I'm sure you've seen this article...

This book will be on shelves next Wednesday!

I would hate to be one of those 50 scholars!

FOR I TESTIFY UNTO EVERY MAN THAT HEARETH THE WORDS OF THE PROPHECY OF THIS BOOK, IF ANY MAN SHALL ADD UNTO THESE THINGS, GOD SHALL ADD UNTO HIM THE PLAGUES THAT ARE WRITTEN IN THIS BOOK: AND IF ANY MAN SHALL TAKE AWAY FROM THE WORDS OF THE BOOK OF THIS PROPHECY, GOD SHALL TAKE AWAY HIS PART OUT OF THE BOOK OF LIFE, AND OUT OF THE HOLY CITY, AND FROM THE THINGS WHICH ARE WRITTEN IN THIS BOOK. Revelation 22:18,19 KJV

Full & Wider :)

The older I get, the less it takes to amuse me. :)

This morning, I was getting ready to mail out

a pillowcase dress to a buyer on ebay...

When I got to the post office Mrs. Brenda

pointed out to me the last name of the

buyer was... FULLENWIDER

As in FULL AND WIDER? :)

She got me tickled talking about it...

Was this her maiden name?

Did she get made fun of in school?

Was she a bigger lady?

Not that any of that really matters :)

...but now you know that it doesn't take

much to make me laugh.

My maiden name is Newsome...

Seriously?

It's not two weird words put together to

make one...and nothing rhymes with it...

You would think I was pretty safe with

 that one......but...there was one boy named

Chris, who always managed to find something

about me to make fun of and my name was no

exception with him around....he started

calling me Tracy Nuisance.

Which really got on my nerves at the time!

But that was 26 years ago :) 

WOW! I'm really getting old! 

AND I am sure I have been called

worse over the years :)

The biggest thing with my married name is

that it gets mis-pronounced alot.

Does anyone else have a name that people

have made fun of in the past?

A year ago today

I can't believe it's been a year since dad passed

away. At 10:10 AM  It just doesn't seem like

it has been that long.

This picture was taken the day that he told

me that the cancer was back...

The last family picture we have with him...

Christmas 2008

Please be in prayer for mom today...

She can take comfort in knowing that dad is

with His Lord and has a healed, cancer free

body...but she sure does miss him :)

I'm so glad I was raised in a home with saved,

born-again parents...They were both saved! So,

I have the assurance that one day. (hopefully the Lord will

come back VERY soon!) I WILL see him again...

and so will mom. 

Everyone doesn't have that.

I couldn't imagine burying a loved one and

knowing that I WILL NEVER, EVER get 

to see them again.

If you have loved ones that you think/know are

not saved...have you witnessed to them?  

They may not have tomorrow...

you may not either...

I'm looking for two recipes...

I was sick a few weeks ago...sinus infection and

a virus is what the dr said...but I think it was some

form of the flu.

I was sick for about a week and a half and I'm just

now getting my appetite back...which

really stinks :)

Anyway...since then...I have been craving two things: 

chocolate mousse... 

and...

Tiramisu!

Most Tiramisu recipes call for coffee...

but I'm looking for one that doesn't...like

on the cruise ship, we had a mango flavored

tiramisu that was really, really good!

AND most chocolate mousse recipes call for

semi-sweet chocolate...which is another

one of my least favorites.

Anyone care to share a recipe?
