Let's Go Steelers, Let's Go!
I've spent the morning perusing this site, 1154 LILL Studio. I'd stumbled upon it last Fall and LOVE the fact that you can design your own purse (pick from a variety of shapes and sizes, then select which fabrics will be used for the different parts of it). The purses are slightly pricey, so I'm struggling to get a good design (don't want to spend the money on something that looks silly; quirky is good, silly is for four year olds). If you are a lover of handbags, you've gotta check it out and design a purse of your own.
The Steelers are playing today. The dogs are attacking each other. James has spent the last ten minutes fingerpainting spaghetti sauce all over his round belly. I have three day old leeks in the refrigerator, just screaming to be chopped up for some potato-leek soup. There is a stack of library books on the kitchen counter, all overdue, and several reserved books on the shelf at C. Burr Arts, waiting to be picked up today.
The sun is shining, but the furnace is running. I'm sure that I will feel warm enough in a new brown stretch tank and the chunky rust colored cardigan my mom made me. When I get home from the library, I will make the soup and join Lou and Mac for the game. I will change into comfortable sweatpants and have a glass of wine.
Ideas and possiblility stretch out, fueled by a breakfast of potatoes and vegetarian sausage. Inspiration in the form of body art and fabric swatches. An anticipated "event," accompanied by a change of clothes.
So far, it's been a lovely day.

It sounds lovely. I am jealous!
(And makes me feel lazy and as though I have accomplished nothing this weekend! You go girl!)

It never fails, I love everything you write Cate!
Although.. we may have to talk about this 'Steelers' thing.. I am an Ohio girl born and raised, Cleveland suburbs.. Go Browns! Does this mean we are now rivals?
(seriously, yeah the Browns suck ass)
Oh my god! Just checked out the link to 1154. Looooove it!
Hey~
Sooo, the Steelers are off to the "souper" bowl...(wasn't it a helluva win???).....no that was you (bet the potato-leek was yummy!!!)
Will ckeck out the purses...
I am so not into football it's not funny. (g) But you enjoy yourself, Cate. LOL!
Tanya
Happy "Good Day" to you!
Sounds like a wonderful, relaxing day you had planned. Hope all went well and you enjoyed the game with your family.
Steelers-Seahawks. Should be a good Super Bowl. Right now Steelers have a 4.5 point spread for the game.
Read ya' later!
Those bags are lovely! No comments on the football. :)
I was with you in spirit, across the country and routing for the Steelers.
I miss ya' girl.
Baylor,
It ended up being a really nice day! Hope you had a great weekend. Thanks for the comment!
Rita,
Thanks for the comment! Being from the NW PA quadrant, I could've gone either way, but I'm married to a Steeler's fan, so . . . I like the Browns' colors better, though. Does that count? And aren't those purses fabulous? I think I'm doing that as my gift to myself for 10 rejections!
PF,
Yes, it was a great game and I am very happy! And the soup was scrumptious, too! Next time you're over, I'll make some :)
Tanya,
I'm only "into" the last half of the game (and I don't really understand all of the rules). Now, tailgate parties? I could be "into" those!
Ldahl,
I've missed you! I hope you're busy creating! Happy "good day" to YOU!
Human Z,
Now, I know that you, of all people, are excited about this. I'll bet you were out swinging your Terrible Towel!
Stephanie,
I'm glad that you liked the bags--if I could just settle on one!
AG,
Ain't nothing like the home town team! I could just KISS Bill Cowher! I love that man, love, love, love him! And I love you, too!
