Pizzelles and the bunny is back

Yesterday was a good day. Went to the Hyundai dealership to have the new seat release installed and was told that it needs just a gentle pull. I assured them that that is what I do. Of course you get the "look".
Finally made my Pizzelles; the aroma filled the abode! and they taste delicious too. Sent some across the courtyard to Robyn and Dave. Sharing is a good thing. Did not do any stitching yesterday.... I was frustrated to think that I had to take out so many Xs the day before. Today I will put them all back. and add more just because.
A quick check of the garden this morning...the pond garden area was very wet... not sure why. It could have been a few Doves or the Grackle came by for a bath and splashed. I am not going to do anything about it today. No. My hand is less stiff and my back is better and my eyes less blury, so I will not do any manual labor. This will be a stitch kind of day.

Also I have a new magazine (not a craft one either!) and will make time to read an article or two. I began reading at the dealership yesterday and a customer asked  to have it when I was finished. I replied that it was my personal magazine and somehow I do not think he believed me. when the gal called my name she asked how my magazine was. The customer looked sheepishly at me and nodded. I enjoy tales of the West and have several books on the subject.  I wish the temps were better. I love to sit outside when reading.... going to be around 108 today, so indoors is the reading place.
This little guy is back. He tore off a long piece of my plant took a few bites then decided to wash his face and off he went! The least he can do is finish the meal.He is too cute to get really angry with. I just want to whisper in those big ears and pinch his bright white tail!
I had a comment about the scissors in my last stitch photo...they are from Singer and I got them from Jo Ann's. Love my scissors.
Oh, there is a new blogger from Italy.....Marula, stop by and say hello. She has the translate button so it is easy to read and she is offering a cute Lady bug pattern...free.
Okay...off I go. Glad you had time to chat today. Thank you for your kind and caring words and for you friendship.

Dosen't it just bug you when people think the magazine your reading and it's your's that they want it, and they get miffed when you tell them it's yours and not the stores. I just get pissed with these people. I could just slap them up the side of the head to knock some sense into their pea brains. I love your little bunny visitor. Have a restful day. big hugs

Gracie: I am amazed he even asked about the magazine, oh well some people.
The bunny is adorable, we have a couple running around here, they cannot get up in to my raised strawberry beds this is driving them nuts, I have to giggle.
I too love reading about the old west.
So happy to hear your eyes are better and your hand and back are getting better.

I was going to email you today to see how your eyes are doing, so was glad to read the update. Can you believe we may be going to get through the entire month of June with only one 110 degree temp? This is such crazy weather, but I'm loving it. Soon it will be time to hibernate inside for the summer.

I don't know what Pizelles are but they look very pretty with their patterns!
Glad the bunny didn't try nibble them instead of the plants. We had a deer last week, eating all the weeds but left my fuschias alone. I was happy!

So glad to hear your eyes are doing so much better. RJ@stitchingfriendsforever
