Tuesday Tea

Sea Cottage recently started Tuesday tea. That's were you post a little something about your day or week and have a little tea.

So something about today. I have posted 2 times in one day. Plus I am still in my nightgown. That's sad I know.

This is a little tea pot I have had for a while. Not real fancy but I love the colors.

So now I am going to enjoy some of that delicous banana bread and some hot tea.
Have a Great Day

Banana's and Granny

The House Smells Wonderful. Don't ya just love the smell of fresh baked bread?



I used good ole Betty Crocker's Banana Bread recipe. Plus I added some Chocolate Chips ( 1/2 Bag) and some raisins.
I just love a slice for breakfast. Would you like one???? Plus a cuppa tea???
Check out my granny square blanket i started 1 week ago. I am in love with it. So many colors. I am using alot of my left over yarns. Like Vanna Choice, Lion Brands yarn, Simply Soft, some wool, Cotton ( of Course) . I even threw in some mohair type yarn. Just a great mixture.

This is my older Violet. I have had this one for about 4 years. I really like the varigation in the flowers.

Have A Great Day

Knitter's Fantasy 2010


Yes I went to Knitter's Fantasy last Saturday. I stayed maybe 1 hour got sick and had to leave. But boy did I buy yarn. There is a company called Autumn House Farms they have a silk rayon blend that is to die for. $14.00 a skein. but ohhhhh i love it.
Check this one out. There is 12 different yarns . WOW!!!
Then I bought this little llama loofah that smells Divine.

Check out there site if ya have time. I would love to visit there farm someday. http://autumnhousefarms.com/ . This the yarn . So nice I already started knitting there shawl pattern that i got last year.


This one only has 2 different yarns. but very pretty i think. There are a few more yarns but well i am saving them for later.
I wish I could have stayed longer, but to be honest I ran out of money. So easy to do when you just love yarn. I had to feel every skein that I liked.
Then they had the http://bagsmith.com/ lady's there. I don't know why but this link is not working I know they also have a BagSmith you tube channel . Plus they are on http://ravelry.com. They are so friendly.It's all about the Big Stitch. Very Cool looking. I would love to try and do something with these.
Gonna Go for now
Have A Great Day!

HAPPY EASTER AND PEACE TO ALL

Easter has always been one of my favorite holidays. My first Daffodil. They really are very pretty flowers.

My mother in law bought me 3 new plants. I REALLY have a thing for VIOLETS. Plus she bought me a purple passion plant. I have the best mother-in-law.



Spring has arrived. The buds on trees and bushes are everywhere. I can't wait to start hearing the spring peepers around our little creek.
Have a Very Blessed Easter.
