new curtains
My kitchen has been pretty plain. We've lived here for six years and I really wanted curtains for the kitchen (I hate miniblinds). My friend, Lori O., came over this week and helped me (she did a lot of the work) make these curtains. We are going to work on a valance next. My friend, Lori C., helped me hang them (as did Jef). :) In the morning, it is very cheery in the kitchen. The color of the curtains is a creamy lemon yellow. I will take more pictures later.
Peggy Noonan rocks!
How come we forget so easily the character of Americans? How is it that we have come to be known by this character? I don't know if we are thought of in the same light so much anymore, but there was a time when "American" was synonomus with "good, trustworthy". I think, despite what the mainstream media says, that we are still thought of that way in a lot of places.

We're heading up to Auburn tomorrow to go to the book fair. I went earlier this year with Michelle & it was fun. This time I am taking Jef. :) It is a huge warehouse with TONS of books and school stuff.
