Playing Catch Up

Today I'm doing a little bit of everything. Since I made no progress on the laundry yesterday, I got started on that right away this morning. As I'm writing this, the last load is in the wash, and I'll have it finished soon. Also, I still want to get a little housework done.

In between, I finally got started on the doll quilt I'm making for my partner in the monthly Doll Quilt Swap.

The theme for this month is "On My Bucket List". I knew right away what I wanted to do, but with July being such a busy month, I wasn't sure when I would get to it. Usually I like to start the doll quilts right away so that I have plenty of time for them. It simply wasn't possible in July. Nevertheless, I'm off to a good start, and I'm feeling better about having time to get it finished by the last-day-of-the-month deadline. Here's a little peek:

Yes, that is a curved seam. It had me a little worried before I got started, but it's all going together very nicely. If nothing else, it's very colorful.
This morning I started a new recipe in my crockpot for pulled pork sandwiches. If it turns out good, I'll give you the link to the recipe. All I can say for sure is that it smells good. Also, I'm trying another new recipe for some German potato salad, and I'll give you the link to that too once I've had a chance to sample it for you.
And that's all the excitement going on around here for today. I know. It's not very exciting, but that's Wednesday for you. Our weather has been very warm, and we ran the air-conditioner yesterday. Today, it's not so hot, but it definitely feels like summer. There have been no further sightings of the bobcat. Smitty would be feeling better except that dratted Uno showed up this morning, and that just about ruined his day. A cat can't get any peace around here. Pin It
