Hello and Happy Saturday!
On the agenda for today:
- Give Lucy a bath {she’s had one too many rolls in the seaweed}
- Try a new recipe
- Dye sea glass wool and add it to my Etsy shop
- Draw out Halloween patterns
- Go to bed early so I can get up early {the sun is up around 4:30 am these days}
How about YOU? What are your plans for today? Anything exciting?
Have a great one,
♥ Mavis & Lucy

Hi Mavis – Happy first day of summer!
We had to move back (eastern Oregon) to phase one so we are just staying home. The parks are locked up. Today we are out burning an old deck we pulled off and I am throwing every foxtail into the fire. I made foil packets so I don’t have to cook.
Thank you so much for sharing pickety bits and your salad bar plates. My husband loves those meals and it is going to make so much extra time for me this summer.
Miss Lucy is so funny needing her bath. 🙂
