After a couple years off from growing veggies we loaded up our raised beds again this year. Zuchinni, cucumbers, pear tomatoes, grape tomatoes, basil, cilantro, and jalapenos. Everything is growing so well! I can't wait for those little tomatoes to be mature enough to pop into a salad. I'd better add fresh mozarella to the grocery list!


Administrative Note: Due to a few questions, I have added a "terms of use" clarification to my Pleated Purse Pattern. If there is enough interest, I will clean up this pattern and sell it as a pattern/license that will then be available for home sewists to use for their shops (no mass production, please). My reasoning for this is summed up very well by Rae here. Please comment or email me if you would be interested!

I tried loading up my spring bag and it needs a few tweaks to be right for my everyday bag - for one, it doesn't fit the notebook I always carry around. I LOVE this bag and don't want to see it waste away in my closet.



So I'm selling it! I don't have an etsy shop, so the first person to email me at semikkelsen (at) yahoo (dot) com gets it for $30. S&H and a few extra goodies included.

If you miss out on this bag, be patient - I am also working up a pattern to share for you sewing types!

Update - Thanks so much for the comments! The bag is sold...
