Wouldn't it be great if we could take our thoughts and have them nicely laid out here in Blogger/WordPress/etc automatically? I think it would be so cool if there was a way we could dictate our thoughts and creative ideas directly to our computers so that the time it takes to find a pen or have a moment to sit down and type out that thought, is not lost. I write awesome blog posts in my head while washing dishes or driving kids around but sometimes when I sit down here to start typing, nothing flows. I guess my brain is more creative when I am working on something else at the same time. Any of you have this same issue?
Enough Sci Fi. Earlier this morning I remembered that I had the fabric cut for Block Eight of the of the FQS Designer Mystery Block of the Month 2010 so I sewed it up while enjoying the sun streaming in my front windows across my sewing table. I'm not a huge fan of the time change in the Spring but I love it in the Fall.

Four more to go |
I had a lovely surprise in my backyard yesterday when walking around and assessing my citrus trees ~ my Mexican lime tree has actually given me some limes! I first planted this tree in the whiskey barrel you see in the photo below where it barely limped along for two years. After two years I decided to put it in the ground in my north facing portion of my yard which is not ideal as it doesn't receive enough sun but at the time that was the best choice.

This darn tree has grown and flowered but has never given up one lime until now. So happy to add the lime to my citrus hunt yesterday.
