Did anyone receive gift cards for the holidays? I know a few of my lucky friends received gift certificates to Sweet Home Quilt Co. Since S. thinks I have WAY too much fabric, a gift certificate to a quilt shop was nowhere on his list of things to buy me. I did get a Barnes & Noble gift card though and since I wanted just about every book in the store, it took me awhile to pick something out. I decided to get a book I probably wouldn't buy myself but that I have been eyeing every since Martha mentioned it on her show. I love cookbooks--I read them like regular books and often check them out of the library. I especially love to bake and this book is a delight to read and look at the gorgeous photos. Although a baking book goes directly against one of my goals to lose weight this year. Guess I'll have to bake and take stuff to work and Starbucks.

I got 2 gift cards to Sweet Home and I spent one of them plus yesterday for stuff for the Fl workshop. AND I even came home and did the prep work!!!
If the sun does not come out soon, I think I am going to go completely crazy (as oppoosed to my current crazy level). The guys all love their new toys They want to again thank Aunt Gretchen!
My sons gave me a book token for Christmas, and, like you, it always takes me ages to choose what to buy. It's such fun browsing. Cookery books and quilting books are like travel books - you don't have to go there to enjoy reading them!
You can also bring your baked items to our sewing sessions :) Have a safe trip home.
