I am joining with Carole and the Three on Thursday gang today! And, though it hardly seems possible – February is OVER! I am so ready for March!
And, March? One of my favorite months from the Chicken Soup with Rice by Maurice Sendak!
Bring on those blow-y winds, March!
Thing One:
Sometimes, the best things ever are posted on Twitter. Rabbit Hole warning…enter at your own risk: Terrible Real Estate Agent Photos (My inner 4th grader loves that there is a #terrible toilets hashtag)
Thing Two:
I think I might have finally unlocked the complete and total insanity phase as I am contemplating a 100-day Project… and this one is totally out of the box, I am contemplating quilting! I have not done any quilting in years – so long in fact that I don’t remember much about my feelings about it. But, I have a stack of fat quarters and some years ago I thought about doing this little Bernina Project which has a difficulty level of “beginner” and complete in 4-weeks, but I think 100 Days might be a much better plan! (And, if I start soon, it just might be done in time for Christmas!!)
Thing Three:
Being an avid student of history, Cohen’s testimony struck me yesterday as an eerie repeat of a much earlier testimony…that of Joe Valachi’s 1963 testimony before Congress. I laughed when I Googled “mobster congress testimony” and both Joe and Cohen info filled the web page, so I must not be alone with that thought! However, the best part of the day was when Rep. Elijah Cummings took us to church to close the hearing! Preach it Mr. Cummings!!
That is all I have for today! What things are new with you?
I clicked on Terrible Real Estate Agent Photos and got so enthralled/horrified that I almost forgot to return and keep reading! I saw some things like that while house-hunting last summer, but it’s so much funnier when you’re not actively looking for a place to live. Thanks also for Maurice Sendak!
Those terrible real estate photos got me too! Scary stuff there. Will be curious to see how your quilting goes.
I love Chicken Soup with Rice! Being a March baby, March was always my favorite as well. Have you heard Carol King’s sung version of the book?
Oh my gosh. I want to move into every other house I see on Cheap Old Houses (IG) — the Terrible Real Estate Agent Photos is a good counterpoint! Haha!
What a great quilt!! Saving that one, myself. 😉
LOL, Love the terrible real estate photos. I could spend hours looking through those. I also love the March poem. The artwork reminds me of a favorite childhood book I had.
Okay. First the Tegna with that totally difficult yarn. . . and now quilting?? I think you chose the wrong word for this year, Ms. Kat! Your word should have been CHALLENGE — because you are certainly up for one! XOXO
The quilt block looks like a lot of fun…log cabin is always a win in my book… and a good #100dayproject + some…
Thanks for the EC closing clip…I missed that in all my watching y’day…
BTW…finally have Internet service again – since about 12;20 pm.
Cheers~
Smokey and I and probably a million others were also reminded of a preacher during Elijah Cummings closing remarks. It was so masterful. Best of luck on your quilting and crafting ventures!
that’s a solid three my friend! I totally think you should do a 100day project around quilting!
