A new year, new goals and plans. As we begin 2012, I have decided to change a few things in my life...
My mother's death a year ago has reminded me that our time here on earth is short...and that living each day in a positive, meaningful way is so important. And so, I am going forward with several projects that will keep me busy throughout the coming year.
The first project that I am in the process of tackling is my website...I have made several changes. It will be more user friendly, and I have decided to join an ever-growing group of us who just LOVE Pinterest!
I have just started my journey there...you can find the link on the right sidebar. I can't wait to get into it in a much bigger way. I could spend many hours drooling over the gorgeous pictures!
You will also notice the "Pages" button and the "Culinary Canvas" button on the left sidebar. The Culinary Canvas button goes to the previously named...Foodie-Nature Place. I have changed the look a bit..and will be starting in on a series of new recipes for 2012 soon.
The "Pages" button leads to the newest way of having less on my main website! The button will take you to an index page. Each button there leads to another page...I love the simplicity. I hope you will visit and enjoy.
The second project I am sharing today is a quilt I want to finish this week. It was supposed to be completed before Christmas, but it got a little busy around here and so I had to delay putting the binding on until now. This was the first quilt I made using my new sewing machine.
