Yes, I did start the day by heading to the farmers market. No, I did not get out of the car. A different plan was hatched as the rain came down in sheets. It involved the community mercantile, some local produce and flowers, and a little Italian buffalo mozzarella.
Yes, the lemon cherry scones were made. Yes they were eaten for breakfast.
Yes, some sewing got done. Yes I got Chris involved in a fabric project.
Thank you to the person who told me about this way to use up fabric scraps.
No, we had not planned to go to Rock Chalk Park to walk. Nonetheless, yes we did, and I am thinking of becoming a weight lifter. No photos of this. Use your imagination. Or not.
By 2pm we were at 2 inches of rain for the day. And finally... yes, a movie was on the agenda. Yes we selected Hidden Figures. Getting ready to start it as soon as I hit the publish button.
So that turned out to be a Yes/No, Yes/Yes, Yes/Yes, No/Yes, Yes/Yes kind of Saturday. Which seems just about right.
I was the one, who sent you the link, about making fabric pom poms! I'm so excited to see they turned out. Did you make a garland with them? If so, I want to see more photos! I'll have to give it a try soon.

I checked out that scone "receipt" and it looks dandy, so I'll give it a try. I read somewhere that grating the ice cold (even frozen) butter and then chilling again makes for quickly mixed and nice textured scones. Have you tried it???? I plan to do so soon.... Thanks for recipe etc..........

Thank you Debbie! So far I have just made one, but want to do some smaller ones and then hang them all individually from the light fixture over my dining room table. My light fixture likes to be decorated, all the time. ❤️👍🏻 Carol

You've had the rain, all we've had is the wind. I detest wind. Makes me agitated and feel like I've been pummeled. One day it was so windy it toppled 2 semis, uprooted trees all over town, tore down power lines. In some parts of the valley the wind was clocked at 80 mph! So GRRRRR. I'm ready for May and calmer days ahead.
