Catching up with 'Mimmie'

Oh Dear Sweet Friends, I haven't dropped off the face of the Earth, just dropped into a whole new realm of Life ~ Grandmotherhood, is that even a word?, or for me it would be Mimmiehood. That's a new word created by moi. Yes, dainty little Miss Johanna Grace came into our lives on May 14th. Just as precious as a little girl can be, and so is her Mother my daughter Lauren. I have been busy keeping up with her, crocheting, and creating in down time. Even had a chance to visit a couple Antique Stores here in Shelton WA.
So there are some New goodies in the Boutique.
And a new favorite Yarn Shop, which just happens to be right on my path to visit with Johanna. Fancy Image Yarns, www.fancyimageyarns.com, is a shop full of hand dyed Merino's and Mohair's. Myra's eye for color is just outstanding with yummy summer, and rich fall hues. This shop is a must have for the Fiber Artist.

Today we took Johanna to the Olympia Farmer's Market. I just Love her New Copli Stroller! Her Blanket here was made by Melissa Danner of 'My Favorite Things', melissadanner.typepad.com Thank~You Melissa!!

I Hope You ALL are Enjoying a Wonderful Holiday Week~end!!

When I think of Southern Cooks~ I think Paula Deen. I have eaten at her lovely Restaurant, The Lady and Sons, on several occasions and the faire was Oh so yummy!! This trip I visited her Home Store, I have to say I really like the quality and design of her products. Her prices were very reasonable too!! So I did find a couple goodies there just for you!! I also stopped by 'shopSCAD'(Savannah College of Art and Design), a retail boutique full of products made by the students. So many pretties and unique color combinations too! I found a very pretty Gift there for you too. Today's Give~Away, a Special little Cooking package. From shopSCAD, a lovely Teal Toile on White Kitchen Towel & Hot Pad set. I love the color Teal, it can be mixed with so many different other colors. From Paula Deens Home Store, A set of Measuring Cups, and Measuring Spoons. I like these they are a very solid set.
