When I wake up and am torn between quilting or "duties", I log on to this website to give me a proper perspective on the world, ...and do what I want (quilting, instead of what I should (at least according to other people). This is why I love this "enabler's" site! God bless us all!

So, if you are interested, just keep your computer running tuned to things to buy or sell.
If my son "told" me I couldn't do something, I'd remind him to not let the door hit his backside as he leaves.

LOL We have L and L night. Left over lunch.
Now if you are familiar with Hawaii and some other states that have L and L restaurants you know it is a fast food place with Hawaiian food. So the kids are always dissapointed it is the Left Over Lunch and not the real L and L. I wasn't the one that came up with it but DH was when he was trying to tease our Pacific Islander son. Now lunch is our big meal of the day, just like dinner is at most, with lots of fresh food so L and L at the house is not too bad. It just means that everyone, usually about 14 people, is bottle necked by the microwave trying to heat their plate.

Buy fabric at Walmart. That is just wrong on so many levels.
