I also had a bit of fun stamping my own handcarved stamps or ready made rubberstamps, on cotton sewing tapes. (see photo on top) Wow, that was so much fun & I plan to make more of them.
We keep the boys busy practising their writing (needed) & doing various sorts of activities. Chris will leave for Corsica (for work) on Wednesday afternoon (for 10 days, until the 28th ... that'll be sooooo long) , so tomorrow my mom will look after the boys almost all day long, while he & I will go to Paris, and I will try to go to various places to get lots of crafty goodness, mostly cotton sewing tapes again, and crochet lace, like the ones I used for the lavender strawberries.
I hope you all had a lovely weekend, and that you're all off to a great week. Don't worry if I disappear again for a couple of days at once. I know I have no obligation to blog, but it's a pleasure for me, but when I'm too busy, I simply can't. Sending you all my warmest hugs xoxo
PS : I will try to translate the potatoe pie recipe ASAP & will share it here. :)
I just found your blog! Will definitely visit more often!

Love the rainy day photo- great shot! Sorry Chris will be away so long but nice you van have a little time together before he lives. Will your mom still be there for some of those 10 days? (((Hugz)))
ReplyDeletethat's a long time for Chris to be away. Sorry about that, hope the time passes quickly.
ReplyDeleteLovely dusting of snow. Our weather is due to turn milder, and I can't say that I mind. I'd still be happy for more snow,but I don't mind the winter/spring sunshine at all.
Hope you had a lovely Valentine weekend. Enjoy the time you have with your mum :O) x

ReplyDeleteHi Sonia,
ReplyDeleteJust a note to say I've visited, but haven't commented, as I'm trying to spend just a wee bit of time on the computer to try and get caught up with other things. I just wanted you to know that my wristwarmers have been such a blessing, and my little birdie always makes me smile = } I love your stamped cotton tapes! Have a wonderful week, Deb
Aww sorry to hear Chris will be away so long, but its a lovely time for those sweet long distance "missing you" phone calls.
ReplyDeleteLove your stamped tapes, they are so special.
The photos of the boys are wonderful. Wishing you a lovely time with your mum and with Chris in Paris. Take care, much love X
Have fun shopping!
