UFO Listing

Playing catch up

When last we were here we were talking about Friday Night with Friends.

I am happy to report that I actually did some work on a project. . . but since I think the person for whom I was sewing reads my blog I don't want to spoil the fun & show what I was working on.

BUT, I can tell you that it was the 4 blocks that make up my row in our guild Row Robin program that has been going on since January.  It is more Framed 9 Patches and if you go to this post you can see a previous row that I did. . . . .same blocks but different colors; this month was all solids with white as the background.

Truth be told I wasn't sure I was going to like the way the row turned out. . . but it does look pretty neat.  I hope Valerie likes it.

I've completed 2 more books:

Sweet Tea Revenge (A Tea Shop Mystery, #14)
This is the latest in the Tea Shop Mystery series.  I love this series and enjoyed this book very much.  It's funny but the characters have become so ingrained in my imagination that whenever Laura Childs puts in a physical description as SHE sees the character and it doesn't fit in with how I see the character it interrupts my train of thought about what I am reading.

Does that happen to any one else or am I just really weird?

The other book that I have read was:
A Slice of Murder (Pizza Lovers,  #1)
This is the first book in a series based out of a pizza shop.  I enjoyed it, but I didn't feel that the story line was as well developed as it should be.  The story was a bit "choppy" at times. . . a little distracting but not so much that I won't read any of the other books in the series.

There is more reading on the horizon, I picked up this book from the library today:
Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Crime (Pennsylvania Dutch Mystery, #2)
I believe that this is the 2nd book in a series set in Amish country; the main character is a Mennonite woman that runs a Bed & Breakfast.  The characters are well done & I enjoyed the first book so I'm hoping to be able to get through the entire series so that I can be up-to-date on it --- much the same way that I had played "catch up" with the Laura Childs series (there is a scrap booking and a small time diner series in addition to the tea shop one).

Well, guess I better get a move on. . . . there is a lot to do before I get to read my latest book!


In peace and pieces,
