Snow Day!

We have a fairly sizable winter storm setting in here in the Twin Cities in Minnesota. This is what it looked like just near my home on the way back from errands:



So, I had already decided to be home for the day, and not work at the studio. But I had to pick up some things there, and run errands at Michael's and Barnes & Noble.

That's when I picked up my "vices" to have while I'm hunkering down at the homestead. Can you picked out the four vices represented in this picture?



Answer:
  1. Starbucks black iced tea, no sweetener!
  2. Bead crap
  3. Books
  4. Quilt Magazines
I won't be alone today however. The hubby has a pretty awful commute, and so he opted to work from home today. Thank goodness!

I also stocked up the bird/animal feeders outside my work window, and here is a visitor that came right away:

It's good to see one of the rabbits! Usually they come feed at the trays after dark. Of course I expect the pine squirrel will be along shortly!

I brought home several of my finished pieces to add bead embellishments to. There is one in particular, that Norma suggested I add some stuff to. But, while I was picking it up at Stew to bring home and work on, I saw several others that should benefit from some embellishing! (She may have created a monster!)

I'll be sure to take before pictures, and then after pictures!

Have a great afternoon!
