Back Tackers RULE!
My first BACK TACKer sent me my loot! Some very exciting stuff! Three zippers, one of which is a neat knitted tape that I have never seen before, some buttons-including a great two colored (red and purple- my favorite colors) button that I am going to pin onto my denim jacket, fabric and ribbon.
Purple being one of my favorite colors made it even easier to love opening this package! I got my loot on saturday and my final BACK TAcKers purse/notions/thingie is complete! All I need to do is mail it out! It feels so good to be ahead of the curve! It is cute too. We will have to wait until the end of the month to see what everyone has done for thier fellow BACK TACKers.
This is a cell phone photo of me after a fun day in Manhattan. This was the weekend that My mom, dad, Man and I went to Manhattan to celebrate my mothers birthday. We shopped for yarn - mom bought, not me. I have to say she bought a 30.00 skien of silk! Yummy to touch! She is worth every penny.
I always talk fondly of shopping at Fairway Market and as my mom and dad are foodies, we checked it out as a family! It made me very happy to see my father (who has lost about 8 or 9 pounds recently) checking out the variety of fresh foods available to those swanky New Yorkers. I know he was wishing the quality could be found in his local markets.
We spent some quality time in Central Park, watched people and puppies and relaxed. Then we ate at Joe G's before heading back to the train where the above photo was taken. I do look whupped but happy.
Mom liked Cameron's portrait too.
Yes, Sat. was a great day. Do you know how much you look like your grandmother Jennie? Whew!
