Soul Soothing Shakes and Sewing!

Yesterday, I really did not want to be where I was or doing what needed to be done.
Thank goodness for a super sweet friend who dropped by with one of these:

A delicious peach milkshake from Chick Fil A!
Yum!
It is sunshine and happiness in a cup, from the cherry on top to the very last drop!

I was finally able to gather supplies and head toward the sewing machine.
Nothing like beautiful embroideries and ribbon to make spirits lighter.

Nothing like stitching to make my world a little more right-side-up!
Be back soon -- I hope -- with a finished project!

In the meantime, go enjoy a peach shake!
They are only available for a limited time!

  1. Good to see you are sewing, will be on the lookout to see what you did.

    I love those shakes. There is one place here that makes them so chunky you cant sip it with the straw. Yum.....
