All is forgiven

Dear Byerly's in Minnetonka, I was not very happy when I got home today and realized that 1/3 of my groceries were not in my car after going through the drive through loading area.  But your very nice manager drove them to my house 20 minutes away, in his own little Chevy Blazer and tucked some roses into the bags as well.  Then the night manager called to make sure everything got here okay, and offered to drive out another carton of ice cream yet this evening to replace the one that had melted.  Guess which part of the story I will be happy to retell?  Thank you so much.  Lisa

November

With the school carnival and Halloween and all the various parties and costume need complete, I am back to regular days.  The biggest Minnesota craft show of the season is in about a month.  As a result I am dividing my time between cleaning up everything that fell by the wayside during October, cooking some actual meals and preparing for December.

Since I have come to realize that my ironing board may never leave the family room, but I really love the vintage aqua one I have and didn't want to replace the frame, I decided to pretty it up.  The current cover was very old and very sad.

 

I searched on-line for a new cover.  I tried to find a pattern.  I thought about making one myself, but then I discovered sweet Carrie of Hestia Houseworks.  She made me a new cover out of one of my favorite Amy Butler dots, to match some of the pillows in our family room.

I am in love!
