I love a good weekend with great friends, don't you?
There's a crew I hang with known as the Forest Folk. They're an extremely passionate-about-life group that hang out nearly once per month for a weekend sleepover or camping trip. They are creative, outdoorsy, and imaginative types that do potlucks with gusto and accept pets and rubber skeletons as esteemed guests.
This past weekend we had our usual craft table where I painted journal pages. Others repurposed altoid tins into mini-shrines and painted journals to commemorate good times. My friend Nici (who took these pictures) collaged pages to showcase the poetry of a relative who had passed on. Another friend, Sarah, knitted the cutest bunny as her friend's baby shower gift.
There was ham, potato au gratin, purple potato salad, and steamed broccoli for Saturday's dinner. Homemade cupcakes with homemade strawberry frosting was one of the many desserts. Everyone brings a
little something to share with the group.
There was poker, movies, and Just Dance for added entertainment.
Our next big shindig is a camping weekend in May where there will be drumming and dancing. I love our little community!

April Goals
April is here!
Goals for this month:
1. Have a superbly wonderful Team Service Project. We at Bridgeport
Beautifies are running workshops for murals, stone sculptures, seed
starting, seed bombing, and city clean up!
2. Map out the garden! I'm having a party in the beginning of May to
transplant the seedlings and start new ones out in the containers and
raised bed in the yard.
3. Lose five pounds. Time to take off the winter weight!
4. Two sewing projects! An awesome kitchen apron, and I haven't
decided what the second project will be yet... I'm thinking either
curtains for the kitchen or a laptop sleeve.
5. Finish up all the legal paperwork for my new business. Yep! You heard that right.

I am starting my own online shop. Can't wait to show you all!
