I just got home from HAVEN, a blogging conference in Atlanta for DIY bloggers! It was such a blast!!!! I got to meet and hang out with many other bloggers... what a fun group... and LEARN so so much!

Now that I am home, it's back to working on the foyer! Today the runner comes for the stairs. And this week I'm making those curtains in the living room and dining room I keep putting off!!!!!

The other big project over the next couple of days is to get the cucumbers from the garden canned into yummy garlic dills! We have had one prolific little cuke plant!

    I bet you had so much fun! I'm really glad to see an eggplant dish. I have an organic farmer that delivers produce to my house on Fridays and this week she is bringing eggplant! I don't cook it often and so I love getting new ideas.

    Wow! Why am I suddenly hungry even though I just had dinner (topped off with chocolate covered popcorn)?! You're killing me Yvonne! Don't you know I'm trying to lose weight? ;). Seriously, your menus sound unbelievable!

    It was fabulous to meet you and I want to thank you for being so welcoming. It was so appreciated!
