my next big project involves....

candy wafers. Because every big project involves candy, right?

fresh vegetables!

Finally picked our (first!) cucumber this evening.

I'm really hoping that we get more cucumbers before the summer is over. But one is a good start!

sunset over downtown

Taken from the top of the Citizen-Times building, overlooking the federal building parking lot.

(Technically taken Sunday night, but I had a lot of cool shots from that day I wanted to share.)

Happy Independence Day

Fireworks

I had a setting off on my camera, so the photos from yesterday were not great. But I'm still posting one. :)



Taken at a co-worker's Fourth of July party (which takes place every July 3.)

daisies...and a cat

These daisies were part of an arrangement we brought home from a funeral on Wednesday (my husband's grandmother's funeral.) I love daisies, and I pulled them apart from the plant, so I could keep them alive longer.


I also love that Chloe is in the background. :)

a new(er) crochet project

I started making this blanket a couple of months ago, when I suspected my friend was going to have a baby girl.

And today she found out that she is having a girl in November.

I'm a little psychic like that. :)
