So Many Things

First of all, we are getting rain, which we need. It is a nice slow rain and everything outside seems to be soaking it up with joy!  There are plenty of pretty things to enjoy inside, too, even if it's just looking out the window. Outside yesterday, upper left, you can see chickens if you look closely. I have to watch them very carefully when I let them into Ruthie's Garden. They are extremely destructive! But they have such a good time, I can't seem to resist letting them in sometimes.
 
I started another quilt. This is a friendship star variation.
 
 
Here is my darling Mr. Muddling modeling a face mask I made yesterday.  As you can see behind him, the quilt grew.
 
This was last night when I quit. I fully intended to do a lot of sewing today, but it just didn't happen.
 
 
 
Instead, I did a little cooking, including these rolls. They are SO good!
 
I also made a Pumpkin Cranberry cake, and as you can see, we have already made a nice little dent in it.
 
What can I say? Stressful times call for baking. And eating said baking!
 
Seriously, there are so many things that can make you totally crazy if you let them. I am a firm believer in doing what I can and then leaving the rest to the Lord. He is much wiser than I, and does a much better job of handling all those things.
 
I hope all is well with you and that you are not letting things make you crazy! Trust in the One who is well able to help.
 
Hugs and kisses,
Elaine

Look at all those wonderful stars. They are looking great. And well done to Mr M for being your mask model. He does it well.
Funny how we have all kept busy baking. I agree - a good distraction.
Good to know you are getting rain. Your garden will be happy.
