what to do when...

friends on a bench monday...

...you need to make your sister a birthday gift, but she's almost always around? You meet a friend so you can stitch in secret. Unfortunately, the stitching was slow-going. I'm going to have to leave the house a lot more often if I'm going to get Anna's present done in time.

I don't want to give too much away, just in case she reads this. But basically, I started something for Anna today. It's from a lovely pattern that I know she'll love. (One she's never seen as far as I know, so it will be a fun surprise!) I'm not entirely certain how it will all come together yet, because there have been many thoughts on this...but it should be a fun secret project.

coffee

And...rather random here with the "artsy" coffee shot. I got this coffee mug at Starbucks. It has no handle. But it doesn't get too hot to hold because it is double-walled. So cool! The best part is that it was on clearance for $2.99! My mom, sister and I each got one. This is my kind of technology...
