Giveaway Winner and a Little Shopping!

Before we get to the winners of my latest Giveaway, let's talk about shopping. 

Do you like to shop?  Well.....I don't!  I'm not your typical shopper and actually don't like it at all;  it's tiring, it's time consuming, it takes me away from my sewing, and it's costly!

I stopped drinking coffee in the mornings about two years ago and switched to English Breakfast black tea.  It still gives me a little "caffeine push", but yet doesn't bother my tummy.   But, oh......the smell of fresh brewed coffee is just heavenly and once in a while I just have to have a cup.  It's a nice pick me up about 3pm in the afternoon.

Now that the days are cooler here in Texas, I'm finding I want hot coffee again; not the iced coffees I was drinking this past summer.   So, I went and bought this........



This is the small one...single cup at a time, 3 different sizes...and doesn't take up much counter space.

Of course, besides the sampler pack of coffee flavor pods that came with it, I had to buy more so I would have some of my favorites.   I bought French Vanilla Cappucino, Newman's Decaf, and naturally...my English Breakfast Black tea.

 So fast & easy......and no messy coffee filters, or stained glass decanter to clean...I love it and so glad I went shopping! 

Do you have one?  What's your fav flavor?

Okay...you've been patient enough, so time to announce our winners.  Congratulations to the winners.

HURRAY! I finally got some sewing done!

I've been kinda puny for a few days and haven't felt very good, but finally got a chance to sew and worked on some simple sling style bags to put in my Etsy store. My favorite one is the turquoise zebra stripe with the embroidery on the front. Then there is a froggy one, pastel pink flower patchwork one, & Autumn leaves one. There's many more ideas swimming around in my head for these simple, yet practical bags for using as a purse or for shopping bags, so am sure you'll be seeing more of 'em as time goes on.

They look smaller than they are in the picture, as I was trying to get them all squished together for just one picture. They are 20" tall x 12" wide....nice medium size....fully lined.

Which one do you like the best?
