		<description><![CDATA[One of my favorite quotes is: &#8220;There are years that ask questions; and years that answer them,&#8221; by Zora Neale Hurston. It goes right along with my belief that life is full of seasons, whether they last months, years, days or hours. Right now is the season for me to support those around me. When [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My friend Coretta makes the cutest little tatted headwear that she sells as Tatties, and at a very reasonable price, I might add. Tatting is a disappearing art that I think should not disappear! There are so many lovely and fun possibilities with tatting. My Great-Grandma Mae tatted beautifully and endlessly, I understand. Since she [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Despite having a headache yesterday, I was able to finish my Granddaughter&#8217;s scarf and hat set. I love these colors! They seem very Arabela-like to me. Arabela (or Bela, Bels, or Bela-Bug, as she&#8217;s known by us) is quite the little imp. She is the happiest little thing! Unless she&#8217;s hungry. Do not let this [...]]]></description>

Many of them are Christmas presents, so I&#8217;m hesitant to post them on my blog just yet. But I&#8217;m also working on little hat and scarf sets for my Grandchildren [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Growing up I had my very special Grandma Eddie. Actually, she was Grandma Nellie until my sister&#8217;s first child could not say &#8220;Nellie&#8221; and it came out in a very cute &#8220;Eddie&#8221; (love you, Jeni-Pen). Grandma was thrilled &#8211; she did not like the name &#8220;Nellie&#8221; and threatened me when I suggested using Nellie as [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The last few weeks have been a deeply introspective time for me. I&#8217;m not sure why, but I have a hard time sharing my concerns and worries publicly. So I tend to just withdraw and stop writing. I guess first of all, I figure everyone has their own worries so why should I add mine [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Confession 1: I have always wanted to take professional cake decorating classes. When I was a teenager I went to church with a couple of professional cake decorators. Each generously shared their talents at separate times to give a &#8220;basics&#8221; class to the young women in our group. Both times I was completely enamored; I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Time to check in and be accountable for my projects. Does anyone else feel like once you start a project, it has a life of it&#8217;s own and it anxiously awaits completion? I didn&#8217;t feel this until a couple of years ago when I was sorting and organizing the closet in our office/craft room. Suddenly [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I love the ordinary, simple and everyday treasures of life. Like my sewing machine. This little Kenmore is 20 years old this fall. I have never had it serviced or cleaned. I have read the manual through three or four times, but I still don&#8217;t understand all about tension or how to use the stretch [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Once again, as I look over the last week, I see that I accomplished more than I thought I had. It&#8217;s a real blessing to me at this time to see that I am making progress in many different areas. It&#8217;s so easy to get mired in the day-to-day and feel discouraged. If you don&#8217;t [...]]]></description>
