Pursefection

I have not bought myself a new purse in -- wait for it -- six years. The woman who made all the purses I carry closed her Etsy shop, and since then I haven't seen any purses I like anywhere (mostly because they're poorly made, too expensive, not practical, etc.) When I saw this purse on ShopGoodwill.com, I couldn't believe it was in the exact pink/white/gray palette that I happen to love. And it's made of faux leather. And it looks roomy and sturdy. And it whispered my name.

It was meant to be mine, so of course I bid on it, and won the auction with no challengers.

Since it's spotless, smells new, has no dings or marks, and most of the hardware still had protective cling film on it, I'm positive that it's never been used.

Here's a screenshot of the manufacturer's page on the purse, which they retail for $49.99. I paid $7.99 for mine. Savings: $42.00

Stuff

After finding this Caron one pound skein of lovely peach yarn in my thrifted lot I raided my stash for two cakes of Mandala in Pegasus, which matches it perfectly. For practice and hand therapy I'm going to make another Worth Street Afghan with this free pattern , but this time I'll use the yarn that was recommended for it plus the one pound skein. I'm not quite ready to do the vintage/recycled linen quilt I had planned (still a bit too nervous about the idea), so I'm going to use some color therapy and make a quilt from these thrifted green fat quarters. I considered doing another Yellow Brick road patchwork pattern, but I might go with a split rail fence like this one.

Better than Fried

I cut some chives from the kitchen garden to make garlic-chive baked fries for dinner. This is a great side dish for veggie burgers. Click here for the recipe from Taste of Home.com.

In the Kitchen Garden

Our strawberries are taking over the kitchen garden, but I don't mind. This week I want to make some strawberry banana nice cream (a vegan version of ice cream) and maybe a chocolate cake with berries and cream for the topping. There's thyme in the garden now, too, which I'll dry and jar for cooking along with the chives and the oregano. Next we'll plant cucumbers, as I use a ton of those in our salads and for snacks.
