In the spirit of sharing, I'm having a little giveaway. Included will be these four dinner napkins that I made using instruction from Heather Ross' Weekend Sewing book and one of my new favorite books :: Entertaining Simple by Matthew Mead. Simply leave a comment or send me an email and I'll pick a winner next Sunday, June 14th. Good Luck!

Weekend Sewing Number Four and A Giveaway
Today I'm posting for the 130th time. I thoroughly enjoy the process of capturing everyday moments and sharing them with you. I see the world through different eyes than I did 130 posts ago :: simple things are more beautiful than they were before and I tend to notice things that I never paid much attention to in the past. It's more exciting to try new recipes and absorb, learn about and try new things when the intention is sharing with others. But the absolute best part is connecting with you :: friends, family and occasional readers. To hear that someone tried and enjoyed a recipe they saw here or felt inspired by reading something new to them - well that is just the icing on the cupcake! So thank you, from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to visit this little corner of my world. I appreciate you wether you visit every day and pick up the phone to chat about the new post or you visit once in a blue moon and continue to be an anonymous reader. Just the act of sharing with you brings great joy and sunshine to my life.

ReplyDeleteHi there!
ReplyDeleteHave you seen the movie "As Good As It Gets" ?? Great movie! There is a line in the movie where Jack Nicholson tells Helen Hunt that she makes him want to be a better man (for reasons that I won't go into here!)
Your blog makes me want to be a better gardener, a healthier eater, and a more creative girl overall! You have inspired me in more ways than I can say...thanks my friend! Dawn
Your napkins make me want to cook a specialy dinner! I'm sure there must be great recipes in Mathew's book to do just that :)
