Embroidery course... FREE, ONLINE !!

Salamwalikoum,

I haven't posted in a while, so I thought I would pop in for a quickie and let you all know what I'm up to.
It's been a crazy week. My mom dropped several bags of baby clothes at my house... she wanted to get them out of her storage and transfer them to mine in case I fall pregnant any time soon....lol

It litterally took me and my sister 12 hours to sort by size and state and divide it amongst ourselves.
We ended up giving quite a bit of clothes to the local thrift store. So all in all I have several large vaccum sealed bags of baby clothes of all sizes for both boys and girls.... That was wayyy too much work...

Also this past week I registered with Anita at Artistic Fingers for her chikandan embroiderie classes.
I'm really looking forward to learning how to do some of those beautiful  stitches.

I am planning on posting my progress once the lessons get started inshallah.

Hopefully I won't be all thumbs like usuall....

Till next time.

Date night movie review

Salamwalikoum,
Gotta say: my my how time flies....Already 1 week since my last post... I think things just got away from me last week.
Hope all is good with everyones kith and kin. On my end I  just wanted to share some of the fun I had on sunday. My DH woke up in a rather good mood on sunday morning and immediately suggested we take my parents out for dinner. So that pretty much sums up my social life lately... A double date with my parents on a sunday night. lol

All in all it was a pretty enjoyable evening. We went out for some chinese food and then a movie.
The movie we saw was called One for the Money. The movie is one that will please men and women alike.

There is enough eye candy for both the male and female variety. A bit of mid-paced action and plenty of burst out laughing jokes and gags. Plenty of one liners too.

I do admit I've enjoyed Katherine Heigl for a while now. I even remember when she was in a hilarious movie called My Father the Hero way back when she was in her teens. This role was a bit different than the characters she's played before. All the other roles I've seen her in were a bit more goofball and less tough than the part she played in this movie. All in all she pulled it off pretty well and the naration is what made the movie all the more funny.

So this was my adventure last night. It was a nice change of pace to go out for a quiet evening with my parents.

Till next time
