in case you are wondering...

In case you are wondering... how the Craft Lake City went, it was fab! I highly enjoyed it. My friend Halen was demonstrating the Yudu, a personal screen printing machine from Provo Craft, and her cute picture was in the local paper. I found loads of things I would have loved to purchase, but my budget only allowed for these neat-o items:

In case you are wondering... how Bosco is fairing, he's doing quite well! We actually found him a better home with some good friends who can love and be with him and go along with his high-maintenance needs, and I am happy to say I CAN BREATHE!! I didn't realize how badly I was allergic to him until he'd been out of the house for a few weeks. We visit him often, but we do miss that big guy.

In case you are wondering... how the garden is growing, it's finally taking off! Especially the lettuce! Which is strange because my understanding is that lettuce is a spring/fall crop--too hot for the summer. But it seems to be doing well in my backyard.

In case you are wondering... how the knitting is coming along, actually I've only knit a small washcloth for friend who requested one to go with some soap. So really, nothing is currently happening in the knitting department.

In case you are wondering... how my new job is going, so far I really like it! I'm exhausted when I get home, but I like how fast paced it is and the time seems to fly by. And of course the pastries and cookies and candies and yummy sandwiches and salads are a special bonus. Man her peanut butter cookies are to die for!

In case you are wondering... what else I've been up to, here are some picts...soap making (my james made the beautiful red molds!), canning salsa and dilly green beans and enjoying the little treasures in my backyard.

Oh gosh...I've never made soda bottle necklaces, but I'd like to try! If I ever do, I will for sure make you a bird one.

You are your, "if-you-love-me" tactics...I cannot resist!

Thanks for the update!! The mold that James made you is the cutest mold I ever saw :)

You're so sweet! I'm glad you can't resist my 'if you love me' tactic, haha!

We're missing our SLC peeps these days. How's Scooby doing? How are you? Are you ready for a trip to MacCool's?
