Yesterday it rained all day. It was still beautiful and relaxing but we stayed in all day.

I started by making everyone a big pancake breakfast with bacon and fried potatoes. They all enjoyed my gluten-free pancakes so I can highly recommend the King Arthur gluten-free pancake mix.

The rest of the day I sewed and crocheted.

I’m liking the Virginia Tech blanket more and more as it comes together. I need to focus on the hats a little to get them finished for delivery next week.

The quilt blocks are coming together 2 at a time. There are only 6 to go.

Last evening we had a surprise visit from the daughter of another friend.  She was in town with a florist doing flowers for a wedding and remembered that we were here. It was a fun diversion for the evening.

Today I’m hoping to get out for some kayaking.  The others are going to do a long carriage trail walk. I can’t do long walks on flat surfaces without a lot of hip pain. Hiking uneven surfaces is best for me. I think I’ll go fabric shopping while they walk.

    I’d love to stop by for that kind of breakfast! Sounds wonderful. I like the crochet that looks like plaid, I can’t do that. The flower blocks are coming along well.

    I like your plan for the day! I wonder why the uneven ground works better for you than flat. I am curious with the blanket do you carry the yarn between the colors? It sure is looking pretty!

    Sounds like a perfect work-on-project day. Wonder what the men found to do. Both your projects are growing well (hah – flowers – growing – pun not intended)

    It sounds like you are having a relaxing time. I hope the weather is nice for the rest of your time there. Your flower blocks are so pretty.
