I have to remind myself to eat, though.

I figure quilting is my mental health therapy and I don't have to leave home for appointments. Also, it is OK if I do it in bits and pieces of time. I just enjoy the process.

I do this too. Today I made potato-leek soup from leftover leeks from Christmas. Had to go out this morning and get some potatoes, upstairs from the grocery store is a quilt shop so thought I had better check that out. By the time I got home it was noon. Never did get to the sewing but I have 3 nice packs of soup to feast on when I am weary of sewing. Tomorrow will be sewing day.
