{Hello Again}

Well, I'm back! It was a much needed break to focus on

other things. : ) Like letter writing! That's right,

I still enjoy the lost art.

I'm excited to be working on this blog again and there are

lots of post ideas swimming around in my head!

My family and I headed up to the Texas Hill Country

for my Grandmother's birthday celebration and

some excellent family time. Mica was able to make very good

use of her new camera (more on that here);

I'll be showing some great pictures of my

nieces and nephew in future posts.

I finished my very first baby sweater!

Again, baby things are so confidence boosting and I

can't wait to show you the finished product

(hopefully on a real baby!).

There is a story that goes with it but more on that later too.

As always, food. : )

This is a new chicken soup recipe that I. just. love.

The Thai curry spice is key and it's a great

variation on the soup. A bit warm for these toasty,

windy days but it's still a great comfort food!

What have you been up to lately?

Have any of you been apart/started a book club?

I'd love to start one this summer and I'd be very

happy to know what little things you've enjoyed!

I'll bet you're wondering about those

Just had to add that one. : )
