Yesterday brought good things. The Misfits box arrived
And here's the best Good Thing. Same amount and quality strawberries as the local farm, half the price
I went to change my puzzle at the library, and had a lovely chat with the circ desk man about puzzles. He told me what a great borrowing collection they have, including great donations! He didn't realize who brought them in! He's a puzzle evangelist.
Current puzzle, whimsical, just right for summer
Then home to get the mail, with
More supplies from the Sock Ministry, including a card showing an embroidery done by an earlier Sister at the convent, way back when they did fine church embroidery.
Look at the cheerful yarn colors! It's acrylic, completely washable, great for giving to people who don't have the luxury of handwash dry flat.
And here's what showed up in my timeline, speaking of embroidery
And I got my heddle all threaded, ready to go
I love your misfits boxes. Glad you get lovely food for half the price
ReplyDeleteI saw more tapestry’s today.
The reference was only to the strawberries. The rest of the food is a bit cheaper than local, but not half! I wish!
DeleteThe puzzle is too easy. Almost "blurted" the answer because it popped out before I read your teaser. Thanks for making me feel so smart. LOL.
ReplyDeleteIt's a nice approachable one, suitable for a lazy Friday around here.
DeleteHurray for Misfits Day! And hurray for a new good puzzle. I am finally making a bit of progress on the one I've been staring at for weeks now. Also, I have gotten better at using a magnifying glass. Those two things are related.
ReplyDeleteThose must be seriously tiny pieces!
DeleteLots of carbs at first glance. Strawberries❤️.
ReplyDeleteThe strawberries are great. Every one perfect.
DeleteStrawberries are looking good.
ReplyDeletegood things day indeed. at a quick glance I have one for STAR but no time right now to ponder the others.
ReplyDeleteOne for all and all for one!
DeleteA day of happy receipts.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful socks you'll make from all that lovely yarn! And the word puzzle was easy but I can't think of a clue without giving the whole thing away.
ReplyDeleteGreat clue,D!
DeleteI got the puzzle, but I'm in the same position as Debra re. a clue. That "Starry Night" piece is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteSo is your comment a clue piggybacking on a clue?? Better and better.
DeleteGot it! Had to look at it a couple of times, then the answer popped out at me.
ReplyDeleteChris from Boise
Today's puzzle reminds me of a choo choo train (and I know it's safe to give that clue because I'm pretty sure the answer has already been revealed).
ReplyDeleteLovely boxes - both Misfits AND yarn-y goodness too.
It was a good delivery day.
