Is that coffee fu fu kind because I drink no less. If anything, I can bring the coffee and creamer. The quilt needs to be a heavy one because I do tend to get cold at night and these little muscles don't do well in the cold.

11:30 pm-??? Guess I'd best leave the door unlocked for you~ ;) I can also leave a pillow and quilt on the couch! We can have coffee (or ?) in the morning too~~
|
I can borrow another friends espresso machine and we can really be ready for the day. hey quilting at Mariposa's everyone. She can swap our blocks right then and we can sew our quilts that day. Great plan, wonder if her DH will have a problem with that?
|
**We would have a grand time! Have the entire downstairs to ourselves! Whoo hoo!! That would be a party! Just surface upstairs every now and then to the kitchen~~ ;)
|
Which we will have the crock pot going with our dinner, we will have already baked our goodies, and purchased our chocolate. Yep, sounds like a party to me. Who all is coming besides me? I have to work that around Jaba, she is having me over at her house as well.

Sounds good! My poison is tea, dark chocolate and margaritas. Not necessarily in that order. I can bring my own stuff and share. |
Whoo hoo, we are going to have a great time. My brother brought from Germany some of their "chocolates" that are flavored. Those should go great as well. So "quilt day/evening" at Mariposas on the due date of the blocks. We are all brining in some goodies. Anna, would that be Long Island Iced Teas as well?

You know I have never had that but there is always a first time. I'll bring Jose Cuervo along. :D
|
Jose may fit in real well. We should have everything we need oh, yeah, I suppose we should bring the machines so we can pretend we are getting something done and avoid any suspicion.
|
Suspicion? Ha! Just a few gals having a good time, and doing some sewing on the side! ;)
|

Some time ago I drew out and gathered the chicken blocks I wanted to make for this swap. I have been looking for two days and I can not find them any where. They are doing a good job hiding but I am not so happy about this game. Maybe one more day and then I will start over.
