UFO

Ok not that kind!
 
 
I made the partner to this needlepoint for my daughter awhile ago. Her bathroom is decorated in a moon and stars pattern. I have been working on it for over a year. I have had the frame since 2011.
 My husband wanted to make this one,but he didn't like the way his stitches turned out so I finished (3/4+) it.
 
Then I needed to do the outlining which I dislike.
 
Then I couldn't find the chart.
 
 Then I couldn't find this piece. (my craft room is a disaster).
 
Finally got everything together and I finished it tonight!
 
I feel like I really accomplished something!!
 
Now I can mail it together with the 1/2 moon mirror I found at Goodwill,

Happy Easter, Blessed Passover, Blessed Oestara (late)

I got my hubby an Easter basket with a basketball in it. Two fold...we can go together and shoot hoops. I received an adorable card (as usual) and a Bamboo plant trained into a heart shape.

My parents hit the road early this am so we celebrated Easter yesterday. Haet being so far away from everyone......

Shopping and such

So went back to Sanrio today for DD. Everything is now 40% off. Stocked up on her supplies, got one or 2 things for me and a couple of Christmas gifts.

Off to Border's to exchange my DVD-Frida. One of the 2 did not work and they had 1 left. They were gracious enough to exchange it even though I didn't have my receipt. The young lady behind the counter said it didn't take and you could tell by looking at the DVD. To technical for me. lol!

The to the NEW Vietnamese market. Awesome, I tell you. Got some more Ramune as it is even cheaper there than anywhere else I have found. Also, I found some Red Bean Ice Cream bars. Tons of fresh fish. Aaaaaand, tanks of live fish. Tilapia swimming around waiting for their demise. Really, I can eat it at a resaurant. But to go buy something that is LOOKING at me, THEN watch someone butcher the crap out of it, take it home cook it and eat it? Noooooooooo.

Off to clean out some cupboards.
