Pickings getting awfully slim around here.

 
I like to eat. I figure most people do. It’s a sure cure for hunger they say but beyond that it’s also quite enjoyable most times. So I like to eat.
Occasionally I like to go out to eat or perhaps splurge a bit and instead of making myself lunch at home, to go [...]

Depressed? Don’t Read the News.

If you suffer from depression in anyway my advice to you is to not read the latest news unless it’s from the Good News Network or some other site like that. It won’t help your outlook that’s for sure. Even I’m starting to feel down in the dumps.
China is being it’s usual communist “squash the [...]

A 2 Day Snowstorm-Minding the Shop

The Northeast Kingdom is looking forward to a two day snow storm beginning around 10:00 AM this morning and guess where my better half is right now? About 2 hours south of here attempting to take care of the usual quilt shop business that springs up around this time of the year (first sign that [...]

Tags and Categories-Tagged Again! Part II

Required reading: Tags and Categories-Tagged Again! Part I
Many thanks to Grandad. This absolutely horrendous, disjointed post is all his fault but he’ll probably blame it on K8.
And here we go….
I seem to be getting older these days. Not only am I getting older but it seems to be becoming a habit, a perpetual thing if [...]

Finally White

A small but effective storm hit the Northeast Kingdom today and laid about 8" or more around the general area sufficient enough to make the whole area look like it really was the middle of Winter instead of looking like it was just before mud season. Won't help the snowmobile trails at all but those [...]

This is January?

It reached 55 degrees today, switching between sunny, rainy, windy, two of each or all three together and it switched back and forth on a moment's notice.

A long Meadow Farms post: New Quilt size

A new size of quilt has come about due to an order from a lady who has two twin beds at home that she thought might look good with a couple of my lady’s quilts on them.
The “TwinFull” quilts!

Back again and oh the weather!

Made it back in one piece ok but coming over Sheffield heights (the mountain between St. Johnsbury and Barton, VT) was akin to driving in a shallow, fast moving river, the rain was coming down so hard. The peak of Sheffield Heights is the highest elevation of Interstate 91 at 1856 ft so you’re a [...]
