Winter Has Arrived

I'm sitting in Corina Bakery (took a day off from my South Beach diet :) ) just enjoying the entrance and exit of customers wanting a hot coffee and pastry on this cold, wintry day.  We finally saw snow yesterday here in the Puget Sound area.  Actually, the forecast for the next few days is snow.  It would be a great time to engage in some sewing or knitting, but I'm preparing for my long trip to Ohio.

Within the last couple weeks, I have read several books on Old Order Amish to prepare for my study in Bainbridge, Ohio.  I will be staying with my parents and hope to include a trip to Holmes County Ohio - the largest population of Old Order Amish live there.

I have missed my Needlecrafts for Charity group.  I will not be able to attend club meetings until I return in March.  I'm still thinking of sewing though.  Maybe I can purchase some fabric at an Amish Fabric store in Ohio and work on a sewing project while I'm there. 

Next week, I will probably not post, as I will be traveling, and then adjusting to life without daily internet service.  I hope to visit McDonald's in the town where my parents reside.  Besides the library, this is the only place where I'll have access to the internet.

Be sure to check back in a couple weeks when I post from Hillsboro, Ohio :)
