Did you know that BELL PEPPER plants produce male and female fruits.  The male fruit has 3 humps on the bottom and is better for cooking.  The female fruit has 4 humps on the bottom, is sweeter, has seeds, and is better for eating raw.  Picture thanks to produceplanet.blogspot.com    They have a lot of interesting ideas.  follow them!

SEE! I do Quilt.

This is my current project.  After making quilts for grand kids and my son(5 in all).  I finally decided to make one for myself.  I painted my room slightly lighter than the Teal color in this photo. 

in order to make a quilt for my KING SIZE bed, I have to make 81 squares.  I have made only four.  I have really been procrastinating!  I can make a square such as this in about 20-30 minutes.  But, instead of sewing on this project I have made a dress for my oldest granddaughters 6th grade graduation.  Cut out a dress for me.  Hemmed curtains for a friend of mine.  Everything except this.  I'm not sure why I can't seem to get motivated to complete this.  I guess I need some accountability from my Internet buddies.  If I have any out there, it would help if I had some intervening comments and encouragement.  I think it will be gorgeous once it is finished.  I haven't decided on a design for a border.  I would really like to incorporate a pretty soft yellow.  What do you think, solid or small print?  or none at all?  

IMPATIENCE

Have you ever had the feeling that you were absolutely sure that you have no idea what you are doing?  THAT'S ME!!  I am completely lost as to what to do about this blogging stuff.  Not that I can't find anything to write about.  Just that....I am impatient to create a useful, productive, interesting, creative, thought provoking page.  In other words, EYE CANDY, stop and peruse kind of page that people will want to come back for more.  Some of you know that place.  Some of you are just more talented than others or have helpful others that promoted you site.  Oh well, once again I say IMPATIENCE!  How do I do this.  What will others think is interesting.  What did I think I was doing when I started this.  All the pages I have looked through and followed have been absolutely mesmerizing to say the least.  Again, what do I do with out having to empty my pockets to fulfill a dream of sharing, caring, instruction, fun, and enticement for those out there willing to be my "curser"y friends.  So there it is.....the musings of a sleepless night.  Its almost 4am here and sleep is elusive.  DH will be up and out to work in about 3 hours and I will be taking my mother-in-law to an appt.  ANYWAY,  I will be here again soon.  Hope all of you out there have wonderful days, or nights as it would be.

Always a Problem

I have finally got the problem fixed.  I couldn't use my camera on my "Surface Pro" computer, so I took  it back to the store and after the "Geek Squad" muddled through the programs they decided that the computer was defective and replaced it with a new one.  That was Thursday.  Friday, Windows 8 wouldn't activate and I couldn't connect to my email.  After several hours of trying to get it to run and sync, I gave up.  Then comes today.  Again I attempted to get the thing to run and sync without luck, so back to the store.  Again, updates; program analysis; the ingenuity of one special computer annalist, and WALLAH!  up and running.  I wish he would have been there Thursday, maybe I wouldn't have been as frustrated with the whole thing.  Now, I can give ya'll more animated and interesting and hopefully inspiring. Trips, Tips, and Techniques.  If you look, you will see a button to help you follow my post.  I would appreciate it if you added me to your following or at least +1 me so I will know if I am doing anything interesting.  And if there is something you would like to know about, or any tips that you can give me, leave me a comment. Hope to hear from you soon. Happy Blogging!
