randomness

7/9/14

I went to my sister in laws last night for a girls night chat and drank a glass and a half of wine, ate lots of seven layer dip and had three cookie bars...I want to feel guilty about it but I don't.  In fact, I'm thinking about the cookie bar I brought home right now.

I found this fabric on line and I know I need to have it but I can't figure out where I would use it.  It's $20.00 a yard so I know I need to use it sparingly, somewhere where it will have impact.  I'm thinking about a couple of throw pillows for the sofa.


Does anyone else get confused between the keyboard on your laptop and the one on your smart phone?  I can be typing away and try double clicking on my computer keyboard and not understand why it's not adding the period for me or correcting my spelling.  Not that I like auto correct on my smart phone because sometimes it totally changes sentences for me in the most unflattering, embarrassing way. 


Just a quick update on my kitchen...I am making slow but steady progress and have cleared the water and soda overflow from the floor to the pantry.  I purchased some of those stacking racks for the shelves and now have double the space for cans and such in my little food cupboard.


I was so excited to hear your suggestions and realize that my ideas are not that far out there.  I can't wait to show you pictures of my progress and a more detailed account of my vision. Thank you for your well thought out comments and emails.  I hope to answer your questions in my next post.

Happy hump day all!

xo, Patty

  1. Patty,
    that fabric is so pretty. Perhaps you could use a bit of it in your kitchen re-vamp.
    Love the ideas that you have for your kitchen.

    I can relate with the problems that come from having a small kitchen. Our kitchen at the homestead was postage stamp sized, and I had to have a armoire in the sunroom to put pantry items in.
    I am loving having a large kitchen now, with plenty of space. My old habits of paring down have not been forgotten, however, and I still have empty cupboards in this kitchen! We've been here two months, and I've still not filled my cupboards. Living simply is just a way of life now **** smile***.

    Looking forward to seeing your simpler, more efficient kitchen re-do :)

    Smiles :)

    1. Hi Phylis, I've had the strawberry pitcher and plate for several years. The sticker on the bottom says Andrea by Sadek. Hope that helps.

  6. Yummy food and wine - sounds like a great girl's get-together to me. Beautiful fabric - I think it would make gorgeous pillows. I don't have a problem switching from my phone to my laptop, but typing on the laptop is definitely easier. I don't use auto-correct on my phone or my computer.

  7. I too have tried the double click space bar period on my lap top :) They should add that feature!
