Random items from my day

In keeping with my attempt to capture the sights (and sounds) of Minneapolis, I snapped a couple shots last night of the snow plows. It can get noisy and it always seems like they start work in the middle of the night but since I wasn’t asleep it didn’t bother me.

Is there anything better on a very cold morning (-13 degrees) than sipping tea with breakfast and a good book right in a patch of sunlight? My kitchen gets great sun in the morning.
Speaking of tea – my mug of the day was this one I bought on my trip to Toronto.

Doesn’t Chesty look beautiful after his trip to the Beauty Parlor?

And finally, when I got home this evening I had a package waiting from Grace. I love Tim Horton’s and was upset when I found out that they had mugs and I hadn’t bought one on one of my two trips to Canada this year….and now I have one. Thanks Grace!


So now that I’ve bored you with my day – I have a question. How many of you blog about those little things from your life that you want to remember/document but that aren’t particularly interesting to other people?

For me it goes back to my blog being not just a way to interact with other quilters but it being a way to document the things in my life. And I actually sewed today too – Happy Blocks were cut out and pieced and I made and machine stitched a binding on a HeartStrings quilt.
