Oil On Canvas

Photo: The New Painting

 On New Years Eve, Larry and I 

went to Dallas to celebrate. 

We were early for our

reservations...and took a short drive. 

It was drizzling, and I took a picture.

The painting above was painted 

from that picture.

20" X 24"-Oil on canvas

Yesterday, I finished the painting 

and it is the BEST feeling.

Love you beyond the moon.

Your Heart

Photo: By Robin

If you are not losing friends....

You are not growing up.

I saw this quote a few days ago and 

disagreed with it immediately.

Losing a friend is a painful experience.

Sometimes you know why you lost the friend,

sometimes you have no idea.

I have trouble just letting go.

I want to make things right and show the friend how much I care.

Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.

Love you beyond the moon.

A Mini Quilt

Photo: 30 of 72 blocks needed

 I have been keeping my brain busy,

 and designed a new project.

It is mini quilt that will be donated

 to the mini quilt auction at

 the Plano Quilter's Guild Show in August..

The squares will be 1 1/2" when finished.

I have 30 of 72 squares finished 

and all squares are made by hand.

It is a sweet project, 

and it is going rather fast. 

“Beautiful things come together one stitch at a time.” 

Have a happy Tuesday.

Love you beyond the moon.

The French Mustard~ A Personal Recommendation

Photo: My Favorite Mustard

While in Paris, Larry and I go to a favorite 

bistro very often.

This year, with my Boeuf à Bourguignon,

Claude, the manager of the bistro, 

sent mustard to our table. 

It was the best mustard I have ever had. 

It is  made in Dijon, and is a little spicy.

After dinner on our last night in Paris, 

Claude wrapped up a container 

of this mustard for me to bring home.

(how sweet is THAT?)

Last week, here in Texas,

 we used the mustard with our pork medallions.

Perfection.

The mustard can now be ordered on Amazon.

Please have a good Sunday.

Love you beyond the moon.
