PETRICHOR

Petrichor (n.)- the smell of
earth after rain

It has rained here every single day,
loud thunder, lightening, power
flickering rain and I only wish
I could send some to Cory and
the rest of California. We have
had more than enough and they
need it, sigh.

My old rooster Hercules has
been cranky all week, he really
does not like me, but Tyrion
has been extra sweet and enjoys
being petted.  Hercules better
watch out ;)

I've been sipping on a new to
me tea all week, turmeric-ginger tea.
I have found it very refreshing
drinking it cold over ice and look
forward to trying it hot when the
weather cools down.

I finished the In Threes baby cardigan
I was knitting and finally sewed the
buttons on. The pattern did come out
large, which I had read, so I'm hoping
it will get a lot of use. I think this
may be my go to baby gift, it was such
a fun knit.

Today I spent working on my Tolt Bag.
I had a little trouble figuring out how to
fold the bag, ahem, but finally got it. Three
folds and I had trouble, shaking my head
in shame.
I worked on adding a lining, but my sewing
skills are really lacking so that isn't going
to happen. 
All my plans were not lost,  I did
manage to punch holes in leather and make
a handle, we won't discuss how long that took,
It's finished and I'm pretty pleased with how
it turned out.

There are no plans for my weekend, I'm just
going to see what happens and roll with it.
Hope your weekend is a happy one.

Love,
Tracey
