::Kylie summing up the weekend...::
If you are a reader of this blog (I thank you!) you know that I am an incredibly lucky girl. I have an incredibly sweet man, an equally sweet dog and an even sweeter new sewing machine on which to practice a new love... sewing and quilting. This weekend has been incredibly relaxing so far, we've re-energized, picked the beginnings of an apple harvest, and taken some time out to start, or in my case, finish some projects. I've gotten back to sewing in the past few days, it really feels so incredibly different, it almost doesn't feel like sewing... I'm not used to feeling relaxed and confident while my machine sews through five layers of denim - that's been interfaced. It's a great feeling. Here's a little of what I've been up to...
::Yes, that is a perfectly hemmed denim panel, and no, I didn't swear::
:: the work space... working... finally::
So while I worked away on my new school bag... finally... Rob decided to make dinner. Now when I prefaced this blog post with I'm the luckiest of girls, I truly meant it. Not many of us would be sewing away upstairs while our significant others make... this... the best eggplant parmesan I have tasted... ever.
::I wish for you smell-and-taste-a-vision in the very near future... it was so good::
::Yum::
Unlike any other eggplant parmesan I've had (and I feel a little guilty saying this but am taking safe harbor in the fact that my 90 year old Aunts do not surf the web regularly) this was rustic and lacking in that oily, smooshed and unrecognizable layer quality. Sigh... I love this man...
Besides some amazing cooking and sewing, we took a little time to celebrate the coming season by doing a bit of decorating. Some pumpkins have found their way to Gehring Road, along with some mums who are deciding to stay green for the moment, and that's fine with us. We had a preliminary Thanksgiving planning session last night and our mantle is looking decidedly autumnal. I love this season...
::No, that pumpkin is not on fire...::
I hope your weekend has been as lovely as ours has been, and that you are spending it loving and being loved.
