Travel Lightly

I'm getting ready for my trip to North Carolina to see Katy.  I'm meeting my sister from Florida in the airport for our big adventure.  I'm starting to pack.  Fr. Joe, our priest, always has a little saying on the board.  Last nights was "Travel Lightly".  There was a spiritual message but, I took this more as a message from God to me.  You can do it with carry-on's.  That's what I'm going to do.  I should be fine, I'm only going to be gone five days.  I bought a new purse that is quite large to carry on stuff.  My purse is usually small enough to fit in my desk drawer.

Projects are getting ready.  More for the lay-overs than anything.  One project is on 32 count over one.  If that is too small, then I have a second project that is a little easier on the ole' eyes.  Got to remember to bring my boosters.

I finished Salute to Abigail.  I even ironed it before posting the picture.

One is without a flash and the second is with the flash.
The last stitching group was at my house.  I had seen this dessert on FB for Salted Caramel Chocolate Cheesecake Cake.  The recipe was HERE.  My pictures don't look as good as on that blog but, it is mine.  
 It is a very putzy recipe and took two days to make.  You could probably get it done in one if you started in the morning.  I did it after work.  Let me tell you, it was worth every tedious minute!!

Finally, our boy Henry Ford turned one this week. 


And as he is today!
Still annoying the heck out of Buster.   
I probably won't post again until after I'm back.  
Have a great week!
Thanks for stopping
Keep on Stitching 
Monica
