The Berries
I spent all day, yesterday, at the sewing machine. I have been asked to teach a purse making class at our quilt guild meeting this Thursday. I am making mock ups of each step of making a purse. It will be fun and I hope the ladies understand what I am trying to say. I also have an order to make a grocery bag for a customer. My sewing machine loves me!
Hubby has been struggling with a case of gout. Have any of you experienced gout? It is quite painful. He needs to stay away from shrimp. He had eaten a good bit of shrimp last week and now he is paying the price. He also needs to stay away from red meat. That is difficult. Last night, friends had us over for steak dinner. That was too hard to pass up.
After our steak dinner, we had homemade black raspberry cobbler. Oh my gosh! It was heavenly. The berries were picked from a farm not far from where we live. I am so glad they picked them and not me. I have a tendency to brush up against poison ivy. No amount of berries is worth a poison ivy encounter.
We played a couple rounds of Farkle. Have you become addicted to this game? Even the minister of our church plays Farkle. It cracks me up. I wonder how it got such an odd name. It is a dice game and winning is by luck.
