CHARGE! (oops, I mean) RETREAT!!!

Which is where I am going this weekend with twenty-plus of the Friendship Spinners. This summer we are going to St. Meinrad Abbey, west of Louisville. No cooking, cleaning or bunny duty until Sunday evening. That is sometimes the best part.

And I want you all to know that I made clothes yesterday! Cut, sewed and then dye painted.

Kid #3: What are grits, anyway? What do grits taste like?
Kid #1: Syrup. They taste like syrup.
