how exciting...do it yourself magazine!!!

now, this is truly exciting! iowa crafter, angie lambert, hey, that's me!!! got her cupcake pincushion & name in the do it yourself better homes and gardens magazine! WOW! i was shocked, amazed, humbled and honored!

whoda' thunk???

it's been awhile!

it has been quite some time since my last post. the end of summer school break has been busy for the lambert's! we're trying to squeeze everything into the last few weeks. including vacation! which, it's also been awhile for that! 4 years since we've gone away for more than 2 days! we loaded up the boat and headed to central minnesota - planted ourselves in a very comfortable little cabin on a beautiful lake - we un-wound, reconnected and just plain enjoyed ourselves. an old drive-in movie theatre, wonderful fish suppers, shopping, sleeping, a box of twinkies, a pool, no mosquitoes, lovely resort hosts & neighbors and the best dock-boys around!

now? well, now it's time to organize the school supplies for a 5th grader and high school freshman! time to practice the clarinet & get up before lunch! we're ready...i'm ready! i will get so much work done once the girls are back at school! and i need to!

tonight i am vending at the farmer's market in valley junction (west des moines). i'm looking forward to it, but wishing the heat would, well, go away! i'm all packed up and ready to leave the house at 1! i have not done a show for awhile now and am anticipating a fun evening! i'm ready for fall tho, i'm itchin to sew up pumpkins and christmas stockings! :)
