Pieces of My Puzzle 2-2-14

Happy Groundhog Day!

Do you believe in Groundhog Day?

Me..not so much....

that lying little rodent has gotten 

it wrong 9 of the last 10 years, 

or something like that.

All I know, is I am ready for spring, 

so Groundhog, weather dude, 

whoever...

BRING ME SPRING!

Another week has come and gone.

Is it just me, or does time move

faster the older you get?

It is already February?

What happened to January?

I feel like I have to jump right in with the 

elephant on the blog.

How do yo like my new look?

I am in love with it.

It went live on Wednesday night, 

and you can see on the details 

about how it came about Here.

Thanks again to Melanie of

Adorability Designs

for my beautiful new look.

See my new 

Pieces of my Puzzle graphic?

Melanie did that too!

LOVE IT!

Since I am talking about 

what happen on the blog this week, 

I also shared my favorite

sugar cookie recipe this week.

You can find the post Here.

So...what else have I been up to this week?

Well...I have watched a little TV.

Let's talk about

American Horror Story!

WOW....just WOW!

This is my first season watching it,

and it BLEW MY MIND!

I loved it so much, and was 

sad to see the season end.

I can not wait to watch 

the first two seasons.

I will not spoil it for you, 

in the DVR world, so many

people don't watch series 

as they air, they record the 

whole season and watch it all

at once.

Do you do that?

Is it better that way?

How do you keep from 

hearing or reading spoilers?

Keeping with the American theme,

are you watching

American Idol?

I have not watched it in years,

I can not even remember the

last season I watched, but

with so much positive

comments about how 

wonderful this season was going to be, 

I decided to give it a try.

My opinion?

LOVE IT!

Keith, Jennifer and Harry 

are  wonderful judges.

I am loving the audition process

that includes probably 80% of 

actual real singers, instead of the

constant parade of people with no 

singing skills at all.

I like that they have cut back

on the "sappy back stories" that

over took past seasons.

This coming week they start

"Hollywood Week", I have 

enjoyed these weeks in the past,

and I hope I will enjoy it this year to.

Those "group" numbers are the best, 

the person who can not find a group,

the divas in certain groups,

the underdog groups that always

rock the house.

Yes Please!

This year, they are adding a new

Hollywood or Home Round,

I wonder what that is about.

So...if you have not watched 

American Idol this year,

give it a shot, you might just like it.

I also watched a few episodes of

My 600 Pound Life,

Good show...inspirational stories of

people over 600 lbs.

It follows them for a year,

documenting their ups and down.

Feel good TV right there!

I have picked up my

crochet hook again this week.

I made a ruffle scarf for a 

friend at church.

Have you made ruffle scarfs before?

They are so cute...and SOOOOO easy!

30-45 minutes from start to finish!

Michael's had cotton yarn on sale 

a few weeks ago, so I stocked up,

and have been making dish towels, 

another quick and easy project,

perfect to keep your hands busy

while watching TV.

So...that is about it...that is what I have been up to.

I guess since it is February, 

I better get busy on 

Valentine's Day projects.

I have one simple project in my 

little head, hopefully I will

get it done this week.

Until next time...
