Wednesday Alert

Yes, it's Wednesday. What would we do without it? Well, we would have one day less to our work week. And we wouldn't have One Flower Wednesday. A sad thought. Just kidding. I've got another flower to show you that I completed this week. And I'm including the muslin hexies that I've started to use for the pathway in my garden.

As for my real garden, I'm still working on it. I usually work in the veggie garden for an hour or two early in the morning before it gets hot. It was a cool day today but, since it rained hard yesterday, it was a little to damp to work. I admit I spent too much time on the computer this morning instead. I've got to get a gripe and deny myself so much computer time. But I was a semi-good girl. I finished cleaning out under the vanity in the spare bathroom. Now what do I do with these plastic plant pots that were there? Hmmmm? LOL!

I'm excitingly expecting my new fun pad that is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow. You ask 'what is a fun pad'? Basically it's a computer compatible drawing pad. Lots of goodies are on it already like Photoshop Elements and Corel Paint. I really love mixed media and this will be a hoot to play with. And..I will have more to post on my blog. What fun!

Oh, yeah. Last Friday was DH's birthday so I wanted to bake him a chocolate cake from scratch. I was having a hard time finding a recipe that used cocoa powder (all the chocolate I had in the cupboard). I looked in all my recipe books to no avail. I hadn't tried the internet yet when I looked on the back of the cocoa box. Viola! Saved by the box!
