Bella

An old hymn by Nina Simone, from the movie Bella. I found the movie at the library this week and I had wanted to see it when it won the Sundance award and was acclaimed by many critics, but we don't get those movies in our area.
I looked up Nina Simone, she died in France in 2003, she was born in 1933.

Looking for a garage sale


These are some pretty dogs we saw in the Pet Store Parking lot while we were out looking for a garage sale (or trying to get a table at Kate's Kitchen for breakfast).
One said "Did you get any bargains?" The other one said "Me neither but Kate's Kitchen sounds like a good idea."
We knew they were smart, they were driving a Ford.
And we never could get in to eat at Kate's so we settled for Mary Anne's in New Boston. Happy Saturday.

New on Thursday

I always find flaws when I look at the pictures, but I seldom change anything.
I started this one with a pattern by Off-The-Beam, but she turned out differently. Look at her nice trim that I got from my friend Joanne.
I made three of these and each one has a look in their eye. I hope these things don't start speaking to me, I will really be in trouble. Happy Thursday.

Maxwell's Art and Treasures


Maxwell's is a fun place to go, located at 32416 Industrial Drive in Garden City, Michigan. It is a little hard to find, you have to look on Ford Road for their little painted signs, we turn in opposite side of Dario's. They have art, books, classes and more.

Memorial Day


Forever we keep in our hearts those who died for our freedom, and those who today serve and defend us. Say a prayer.

Sunday Morning on my little porch


I like blue, especially on Sunday.
