deliciousness...

things have been busy around our house the last couple weeks.  we just traveled to maryland to visit with my husband's sisters and their families.  we celebrated with our niece who will be leaving in a little over a week to serve in the peace corps in moldova.  i know, i had to look up where moldova is too!  so for those who don't know... here's a link.  it is important to learn something everyday right?  now you have! our daughter and her husband have begun their process of also serving in the peace corps as well... such great kids!  here are cristen (my niece) and anna (my daughter)...

also, i have been working a new quilt from camille roskelley called 'dream big.'  i love the pattern which i got out of her book simplify.  so i have all the pieces cut and arranged...  that is A LOT of little squares! ha.  I am excited to start sewing it together. 

and finally, we receive our first csa (community supported agriculture) delivery today!  if you have never heard of a csa... now is the time to find out about them.  they are farms which you invest in each year, and for your investment you receive weekly veggies, fruit, and or meat (depending on the csa).  there are so many out there now.  here is a link where you can find out more: local harvest.  we are using new century farm which actually delivers our produce right to our front door every friday!  mmmmmmm... we are definitely have a strawberry & spinach salad tonight for dinner!
