My picture of the day #45 is of my girls …. Brooke, Bella and the bird (Skittles).
Aren’t they darling!!!
Skittles has red tail feathers and it looks like Brooke has a red streak in her hair 🙂
I hope you all had a Happy Valentines Day!!
Picture of the Day #44
Picture of the Day #44 is of my dinner.
I’m not sure if this picture looks good or not … but … it was actually very tasty.
I buy a Rotisserie chicken from the grocery store every few days and I try to find creative ways to eat it.
My latest is….
I heated 3 ounces of the chicken in the microwave, squeezed fresh lemon over it. Â Added it to one cup of this Confetti slaw (I picked the carrots out and gave them to Skittles and Bella). Â I mixed a tablespoon of Olive Oil with a tablespoon of Vinegar in a bowl and then poured it over the chicken and slaw …. added salt and pepper and another small squeeze of a lemon.
It was very yummy!!
Tomorrow I’ll be sharing another picture of Skittles … Brooke had a photo shoot with her today 🙂
Have a good night!

Gotta run …. good night!
Picture of the Day #42
My picture of the Day #41 is what I’m working on today (in my spare time).
Actually I have 6 videos that have to be filmed today!! So, I can edit tomorrow …. but the noise outside is hindering me from recording. Â I love my neighborhood, and we choose it for the people …. but, on days like today, I say I want to move!!!
Back to the darling fabric …. I am making another Log Cabin Quilt …. (my way) except this time … I’m going to try to not place the fabric where I want it … just a hodgepodge of strips.
I am afraid I may not like it but I need to see how it looks with careful planning verses not careful planning.
The reason is …. when I was looking for new fabric for the Quilt Along … I found very few that would work like the Ambleside Fabric … or maybe I didn’t look hard enough. Â With the Ambleside …. I had four color blocks (pink, blue, green, gray) … and each used 8 patterns of fabric. Â 8 x 4 = 32 strips … LOL Â Now look at the fabric above …. it can’t be done. Â There isn’t 8 fabrics of blue or 8 fabrics of gold/yellow … hence the reason why I’m going hodgepodge.
After typing all that … you see why I don’t sleep much … I over think  just about everything.  I’m not complaining …. I tell my kids it’s worked in my benefit (I think).
Here’s some more math for ya …. Â I’m using the entire jelly roll this time!
- 5″ Blocks – 24 – vanilla charm pack
- 2-1/2 x 7 – 48
- 2-1/2 x 9 – 48
- 2-1/2 x 11 – 48
- 2-1/2 x 13 – 24
- + sashing – Vanilla jelly roll
Gotta run … have a good day!
