Happy 70th Ed!

This is not at all a quilty Post! Three hours before our guests arrive and Ed has just cracked mud crabs for them.

The party started on Friday evening and seems to be it will continue well into this evening! Not one for a great fuss, Ed has chosen to celebrate with seafood and boy, is there ever plenty of that!

On my return from Houston in 2007, I bought him a bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue (what a waste, so much fabric there!) - so that is on the menu, too! I might even have a glass or two of champagne to celebrate!

I just wish to enlighten you all, I was a child-bride who married a man MUCH older than me, LOL!

A little bit about stitching - I am totally over the folded bag! However, there's a similar tute on Janet's blog and I will try that tomorrow - wish me luck! Oh, I do wish I was of the nature that I didn't have to overcome challenges! I guess the one above has been my biggest and I have managed to keep him under control to some degree for quite some time - sometimes, I feel over that challenge, too, LOL!

Happy weekend!
