Saturday, the 29th was my monthly sewing bee meeting. By mid week we had talked back and forth several times about canceling because of the weather. The predicted light snow fall started way after noon. By 4 p.m. the ground had a light coating but nothing more alarming. Just a cold, cloudy day in a warm home with friends.
Since Carol allows us to use her sewing studio, we have been trying to take turns bringing lunch. I picked up fabulous hoagies from the Italian deli, and a nice macaroni salad. we had chips, fruit juice, coffee & tea and carol baked a wonderful Baily's Irish cream cheese cake. Yum-O! as Rachael Ray would say. We do a lot of eating and laughing at these get-togethers. some even do sewing.
This meeting, there was lots of talk about our upcoming sewing retreat. 3 days of sewing, eating, sewing, talking, and more sewing. i LOVE spending so much time with girlfriends. no phone calls to take, or wash to do, or anything to distract from the sharing that women enjoy. This is the 2nd year we are staying at camp ONAS, in the Ottsville area, which is probably central bucks. camp onas is a quaker summer camp. 73 acres of quiet and fabulous views. and if you need a break from sewing, there is always hiking and checking out the resident farm animals, the pig and the donkey. it is just a nice break from everyday, and for some of us our only vacation. There are 11 of us attending this year. 8 from last year and three new campers. Should be fun.
We are all soooooo looking forward to our weekend away in the country.
