Sometimes I Forget…

Today I ran into my local Natural Grocers for a few items and forgot to bring in bags. Whoops! I do have a couple folded in my purse but have MANY in the back of my car. When this happens, I simply put everything back in the cart and bag them at my car. No bigs. XOXO--Teresa


Lately

Lots going on here:

1) sewing bags for Earth Day :)

2) we've been getting piles of snow in the mountains 

3) my new fav cake, gluten free chocolate with cream cheese buttercream

4) lots of snow here too!

5) still working through a sea of prom/wedding dresses 

What are you up to?

We got over 27 inches of snow between Wednesday night and all day Thursday. Crazy! But, it’s a beautiful winter wonderland with blue skies today. Caught these lovely does on my way to tennis this morning trying to navigate 6 foot snow drifts. Hope you have a lovely and cozy weekend. I’ll be sewing prom dresses. ๐Ÿ‘—๐Ÿชก๐Ÿงต๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ”️❄️ Teresa

On Friday, February 23, 2024, Edmonds, WA Chapter Bagettes Kathy, Pam, Linda, Carolyn, and Carla got a whole lot of sewing done! Bagette Kathy hosted the gathering in her home. Look at her fabulous workspace! It's so inspiring, bright, and efficient. After sewing, everyone gathered for a very yummy potluck lunch.

Bagette Pam wrote:  "We were missing a few gals but had enough chatter for a bunch of gaggly women!! It was wonderful to be together and the buffet table was full!! When Ralph came to pick me up, he took the group picture!!"







Yay Sephora!

I was at Sephora the other day with Little Girl and noticed this bin by the front door. Look at ALL THE THINGS they recycle!!!!! I'm thrilled about this. For complete info scan the QR code below or go to THIS LINK. I know it's hard to read in the photo but they take (empty and cleaned) little tubes, jars, mascara tubes and wands, eyebrow pencils, pumps, dispensers, colored glass jars, makeup palettes, compacts and even dental floss containers and empty toothpaste tubes. SOOOOOO cool, right? I'm bringing a bunch of things there this week. Make sure you clean everything out before you drop off. Have a green day! Teresa



UPDATE: CANADA, Manitoba Chapter

Look at all these fabulous bags that Bagette P.P. Petunia has been making in Canada. How bright and pretty! Thank you for making gift bags in addition to shopping bags to help keep our planet waste free! LOVE! Teresa

We got just enough snow this morning for slick roads and bird tracks. I’ve had back to back visitors for over 2 weeks now so haven’t been here much. I’m also swimming in an ocean of prom and wedding attire. Hoping to catch my breath this weekend, you??? XOXO—Teresa

I’ve had more company this week. My sister and BIL are here for the week. We’ve been going on lots of walks with their puppy, breathing mountain air, eating good food and building a puzzle. Hope you’ve had a good week leading into a great weekend. XOXO—Teresa

Hey there! Hope you are enjoying your weekend. I’ve been busy this week with 2 of my fav cousins visiting and I turned 55 on Thursday. Double Nickles! We took the cousins to Red Rocks Amphitheater today for a look see and lots of stairs. It was a perfect day to get out and I feel so lucky I live near this gorgeous venue. Enjoy the rest of the weekend! Teresa

Boy, I sure do love the sun shining on crisp, untouched snow. So gorgeous. We are getting more snow right now so I’m sure to wake up to a beautiful landscape tomorrow. Plans include sewing (of course), cooking and talking to my daughters. All great things to do inside where it’s warm. Cheers to a great weekend for you! ☀️❄️☃️๐Ÿ’š Teresa
