I've been doing this gig for years -- at least 7 or 8, and maybe a decade. The show is wonderful. This guild has a real knack especially for scrap quilts, as well as mixing applique with other quilt styles. I always learn something new from them.
The Mama will stay home this time, and cook for the Brick. He needs someone to baby him, after my being gone most of the summer.
Meanwhile:
The "hidden city" trick to saving on airfare. (From Tight Fisted Miser)

Easy refreshments for a baby shower (or any other social event) -- including some wonderful Rice Krispie Pops. (From Pretty/Hungry)
Two ingredients - one yummy cake. (And it's been around for more than 84 years now!) Don't miss out on Food52's five-step process for making any kind of flavor of 'icebox cake,' either. (Here's the link.)
The only fried chicken recipe you'll ever need. (From Epicurious)
The best teacher gifts...written by a teacher. Good for starting to plan.

Ten celebrities who may have been (or were diagnosed as) autistic.
An AMAZING pallet wood deck. Yow, this is nice! (But then, you knew I'm a little pallet-crazy already.) From Scrapality.com. She's got an interesting shed made out of pallets, too...
Have a great week -- and stop by the show, if you can! Here's the link.
