Hi everyone,
T Stands for Tuesday and T with friends hosted by Bleubeard and Elizabeth.
As I type this up we are getting lots of loud thunder and lightening, no heavy rain as of yet.
I realized I don't have allot to share this Tuesday, so will refer you to my previous post Where I shared my wool quilt project and a hooked rug piece that is almost finished and needs to get done. I have also dug out my basket of civil war reproduction quilt fabrics for the hexagon project, and I am still spinning too. Am also catching up on reading novels from my favorite author and a couple new authors to me as well.
Larry's sister and family have come to visit this week. Today was extreme heat again but they did all fish a bit off the dock today.
My drink reference
I have been drinking more of this sparkling water that has nothing added except for a fruit flavor.
Happy T everyone
Happy T Day, have a great week. Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteOH! We had thunder the other very early morning, too, and rain, sooooo beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAnd heat, yay!!! That drink sure looks refreshing - a happy T-day to you!
I looked up dried tansy - good idea, moths love our woolen socks made by Ingo´s late Grandma....
Your doll looks Russian a bit? Or Turkish? If that helps... (guess not).
Yes the tansy is really nice-I had planted some at the woods house so I brought some back to dry. we have been having lots of thunder and high winds but very very little rain so far it keeps missing us
DeleteMy doll was handmade by my friend Barbara-it is also beaded too
Sparkling water is a great cooler offer! Have a cool week.
ReplyDeletebe well... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
It is we are back to very hot and humid again-sigh the rain missed us
DeleteI’ve discovered I actually like some of these flavored sparkling waters. My favorite is strawberry lemonade. And nothing added besides flavor is always good. Hope your visit is going well and you have a nice T day. Hugs Erika
ReplyDeleteYes I am liking these sparkling waters too with nothing added but the fruit flavors. His sister's husband is a vet and surgeon so he really needed some relax time for a few days. They are out looking at lake houses now-perhaps buy one for a getaway for him. Its not a bad drive down around 6-8 hours
DeleteWe are too hot here-with no rain. Our yard is brown:(
ReplyDeleteI love those sparkling water drinks. Love the ginger flavored ones. Have a wonderful week!
we only got a little bit of rain one day last week but now its getting all brown again with no rain-lots of thunder and lightening but we have been missing the rain.
DeleteI buy a diet ginger beer I really like but have not seen a ginger sparkling water yet you have a good week too
Yes, we are sweltering here too in Southern Spain. My mum in Holland has told me they are having a heatwave there with a whole week of 30 plus temperatures (Celsius). She is unable to sleep in this heat and will be exhausted by the end of the week, poor dear.
ReplyDeleteFishing off the pier sounds good to me. Were you not tempted to jump in?
Happy T-Day,
Hugs,
Lisca
Yes I would be tempted to jump in except I don't know how to swim and the lake is 40 feet deep at our dock. but there is a really nice breeze down there in the mornings Hope your Mum gets a break in the heat soon-hope she has some fans
DeleteWow, your quilt is going to look amazing with all the squares that you've made 😁. I'm loving the rug too, the design and colours are gorgeous! So nice to have family visit, sounds like they had fun fishing. Wishing you a very Happy T Day! Hugs, Jo x
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Jo, I laid it all so it's ready to sew now
DeleteI love blackberries, so I imagine I'd like that water. I tend to forget I could add fruit to water... Even the lemons I keep for that purpose tend to get old because I forget to use them.
ReplyDeleteWe're in a drought here. The Autumn rains will come soon enough I imagine, but until then I'm having to water every day. The pots dry out so quickly in this heat!
Happy T Tuesday!
we are extremely dry here as well We were suppose to get some rain and t storms-we got all the noise but not a drop of rain -sigh I am needing to water some things too.
DeleteGlad to hear you are getting rain...we are so dry here - did get a nice amount last week but sure could use more. Enjoy that sparkling water!
ReplyDeleteHi Debbie, we got all the thunder and lightening even white caps on the lake but not a drop of rain-it went around us I guess.
DeleteI am enjoying these sparkling waters-
hopefully it wasn't a bad storm that caused any damage.
ReplyDeleteThe heat and humidity is not so pleasant ,but fishing at the dock at the water sounds so nice:) Happy T day!
it was building up to a big storm but it went around us-sigh fishing on the dock is nice-there is a good breezed down there
DeleteWe had storms yesterday. Stay safe. Happy T Day!
ReplyDeleteyou as well
DeleteHappy T-Day! (I'm leaving a generic comment for everyone this week, because I'm very sore after each day's storm clean up efforts. Tropical Storm Isaias clobbered Connecticut US August 4, 2020.)
ReplyDeletethat was a ton of work-hugs
DeleteIt has been soooo hot and stormy here too. I'll have to look at your previous post to see your quilt ~
ReplyDeletesounds like allot of us are getting the same weather
DeleteWe've been getting quite a bit of rain too. We had some hail last week!
ReplyDeleteHappy T-day and have a lovely week with your visiting family! Hugs, Eileen
we did get a good day of rain last week-but sadly the big storm ended up being lots of noise-no rain as it blew over I guess sigh
Deletethanks
That stack of wool scraps looks like it would make some beautiful quilts. I LOVE that doll. Do you happen to have a tutorial or does Barbara have a blog? It would be so fun to make something like this with my daughter.
ReplyDeleteYour pottery mug is lovely and the sparkling water sounds refreshing.
Happy Tea Day,
Kate
The drink looks so good. Hope you had a nice time with the in laws and your quilt pieces will make the best quilt. Sorry about the heat. It is cold here and I dream of some hot days. Stay cool and enjoy your day.
ReplyDeleteHope you get some warmer weather-we waiting for fall here-as it has been a very hot summer I am sewing up the quilt now
ReplyDeleteWe had a week or two of mundane stuff...and a mini heatwave but just as i wanted to start visiting our internet gave up!! Your drink sounds delicious! Chrisxx
