fall freebie

yesterday at guild meeting the free table was piled high with some fine and funky offerings....i found this autumn panel just begging for a nice pieced border...again, panels are not my "thing" but sometimes they are just too cute to be left behind....

then i found these.....

and lastly one with my name clearly printed on it, so it was meant for me obviously...

many people tell me how much they love my name and sometimes i have to cringe as there are times when i am none too graceful or grace-like....but other times i just smile and think of the grandmother i never knew who was deeply loved by her family.  ***  so it's been a week of adding to the stash, an exception rather than a norm.  i could tell you it is shaking me out of the winter doldrums, but winter has hardly been here....just the other day i spied this at the local post office.....and our daffodils are up about 6" too...

lastly a teeny tiny confession, hoping cardioman and/or food police aren't reading....i spent 140 of my precious 1200mg of sodium on these...the smallest bag of chips that Utz offers...way less sodium than anything frito-lay puts on the shelf....and just enough to squelch the craving....

try 'em! i am pretty sure there are potato chips in heaven....there HAS to be!
