Goood Morning!!! Beautiful Rainy Morning here! My Garden will love this, already have squash, but woohoo, can't wait for fresh tomatoes!! I have everything growing for my fresh salsa
Here's the recipe:

2 medium ripe tomatoes
1/4 medium onion
4 sprigs cilantro
2 cloves garlic
2tbsp lemon juice
1 jalapeno

put it all in your chopper and shazam the yummiest, goes with everything you can think of salsa, especially with your favorite Beer! Now we have two kinds of salsa eaters in this house. Hot and the not Hot!!! So I have to make both kinds, labeled accordingly.

Here the yarn I have on my Country Craftsman right now, it's thick spun Angora, it is Sooo Soft. I guess I like soft fiber, cuz that's how I have to describe most of what I spin. Using that wheel cuz the Majacraft Rose, well, got a boo boo. She has been with me a long time, she'll be back to work shortly, couldn't get by without that Wild Flyer as I'm always shoving something crazy thru!

Sure like to try Majacraft's new wheel that Pluckyfluff (Lexi Boeger) is unveiling! It is Sure to be good!

Keep Spinning thru it all, Patti

Fiber Batts and Heart Yarn

Just finished the Super Soft Merino yarn, with little hand cut felt hearts spun into it, yummy. its so cute...






















I love spinning up these Fiber Batts, they are Fun to work with, well you know I like to add all kinds of things into my Yarns. I thought I'd shoot pictures as I was trying to decide what to add into these Yarns. I listed them in my etsy shop, you can get ideas by looking at some of my yarns there.

WooHoo, been a long week!! You know how it is with kids, constant! I love being a Mom, that's for certain, so it comes first, So there was little time to get anything else done this week!! Ha, that's life.

It's almost the weekend and I feel I need to WORK!! just kidding of course, I'll hit the beach for awhile, with a pen and notebook for the ideas that spin thru my brain, never to be seen again :) ( I attribute the loss of brain function to being a Mom.) It's hard to knit down there on account of the Suntan Oil. I think I just need to be alone and not think for an hour! Just a couple cold ones, people watch. After a while I am energized and ready to be creative. It nourishes my Artist self, which gets pushed into the back of my brain as I tackle family issues.

I did have a Profitable week, but I always judge my successes to What I Created this week!! My brain is wired to the Art! all right enough babble.....going spin, Peace ** Patti
