off to start some seeds, for when it does get SPRING again..not this week though..cold all week...darn it...

Wow! I'm coming to your house! I'm only a couple of hours from you. I'm tired of the cold weather too but it's keeping me inside so maybe I'll doing some sewing. I even wore capris yesterday - and it was cold! I just keep thinking it might get warm again.

yep, it is cold here..had to bring in all the plants and cover the strawberries last night...darn weather...I just put my winter stuff into storage and brought the tanks...I want WARMTH and sunshine dang it....

They had predicted snow for today. Since we have had days in the 80's already, I did not believe them for an instant. Imagine my surprise (and frustration!!!) when there really was snow on all the flowers, etc. this morning? It did not stay long, but the fact that it got cold enough to snow at all was frustrating enough! I want SPRING back! :roll:

Leave the door unlocked, I'm on my way down to visit. Sounds yummy at your house.

I taught a beginner quilting class once at that church when I first moved here!

We lost our Spring here in NC too. It's cold and rainy here today. Can I come eat with you? Your menu sounds yummy!

Doesn't matter what day you get there. It's all good. Wish I could think like that.

Good going!

I would love to get together with a bunch of quilters from central Oklahoma! Wouldnt that be fun?

It is snowing here in Kansas right now. The daffodils and tuplips are pretty with snow on them but dang I am tired of winter weather.!!!
