Back to Dresden

Such an interesting way to make a Dresden Plate and I thought I had seen it all LOL.

A Dresden turkey by Jenny Doan, and of course a great tutorial.

Out this morning and lunch at Ming Wo's, maybe not, neither of us can remember the name of the Chinese food stall. And we eat there often as the food is good. We just get one plate of three items and two forks. It is always tasty but I can't find the name of the restaurant . I'll check it out later in the week.

We walked around a bit and Ray bought his favourite tea towels at QUILTS . That is all we bought today . 
I had to go to Telus because I could not get my phone off Airplane. So the agent did it for me. Then she asked if I got what she did. And I did not . I told her I would come back if I needed to. I was saying to Richard isn't it a pain that  After 70 years of using phones I  no longer can figure it out.  That is PROGRESS!

We went to the library and I got Winter of the World. I'm sure it will take me more than three weeks to read it. However it can be renewed if I don't finish it.  It looks to be interesting.Ken Follet , of course it will be interesting.

We came home after all that and watched TV. I did my email, the days are so much the same. We think  we should go to different places for a change. I want to go to Granville Island
 for a visit. We can buy great food stuffs there , have lunch on the water or next to
the water,  watch the seals and seagulls doing their stuff, go to the quilt shop and generally do a lot of things.We would need to go early in the morning to get a parking spot.



I'll take pictures when we go , maybe next week?

Sewing Machine of the 70s , it has a boxy appearance. I think it is a Singer.

Now this is relaxed, nothing relaxes like a cat. They seem to be able to hang off anything.

Block of the Day. Pyramids is the name.

Well folks the time has come to not talk of many things LOL. That's done already.

Have a great evening.
Good night!
