Today I made my first car payment in 11 years. Ouch. But I really do love my new Prius, it rides great and gets fabulous gas mileage. I love the new car smell. I got rid of two cars both over 10 years old to have just the one.

I got all of Easy Street cut out, now to get it sewn together. I have a new T-shirt commission and 3 customer quilts to quilt and I will be caught up. Although a previous customer has mentioned he might want another quilt. He is collecting more shirts. I am so glad that he was so pleased with my work.

I made homemade cinnamon rolls last Friday night and they were awesome. This was my first time trying to make them because they always looked too complicated. They were not and they were worth the wait to let them rise twice. I graduated from USC's Cooking School and the main thing they taught was not to be afraid of trying any recipe. If it doesn't work Pizza Hut will always deliver.
