We had a busy and super fun weekend. Saturday morning, I made a yummy pancake breakfast. My new favorite pancake recipe is this one. (I also add a dash of cinnamon to spice them up a little bit.) It’s a really quick and simple recipe, and makes eight just-right pancakes. A little while later, we took Vada to the art museum and then checked out the St. Patrick’s Day parade for a little bit. My sister and I did a little fabric shopping and then attempted to have a few pieces of artwork framed. Um, I have never had anything professionally framed before… it is SO expensive. JEEZ! Like, hundreds and hundreds of dollars. I had no idea. I’ll just wait until our next Ikea trip for frames, since I can’t seem to find what I need anywhere else.
Today was rainy and dreary. We had a slow start, went for a nice drive around town and then (sadly) spent a big part of the day working. I finished up a big quilt for a client. Greg did some work around the shop. I tidied up around the house, folded all the clean laundry and planned out my week, including our dinner menu and the grocery list. I was feeling a little overwhelmed and stressed, but writing everything out really helped me feel better. My life looks and feels so much more manageable when it’s all there on paper.
Now I’m going to go wind down with a nice book (if I can keep my eyes open long enough) and get some much-needed beauty sleep. ♥

You would not believe the amount of paper I use to make lists every day. I’m totally stressed out if I can’t write at least 3 lists for each day. It just helps me to get my thoughts in order I guess. Having it all in my head is just so overwhelming and overpowering. Totally understand you there :)
yey for cinnamon in pancakes. Ther can’t be enough cinnamon in the world! ;)
(I even put some in my coffee….I’m addicted)
I put cinnamon in my coffee too! Have you ever used saigon cinnamon? It’s like extremely cinnamony cinnamon.
Framing is insane. I have a matte cutter if you ever need it
