There's a party goin' on! I'm so glad you were able to come! There are lots of wonderful people, great things to see, interesting stories, and endless inspiration. There are hundreds of guests. You and are are just a few. The gracious host is Vicki at "2 Bags Full". She came up with a wonderful idea for us to find new blogs to follow, meet other bloggers, and make new friends. I loved the idea and didn't hesitate to join in on the fun. My blog is just one of 400 that signed up for this international event.
When you visit my blog you'll find stories and pictures of things that I love to do...knitting, crochet, weaving, sewing, quilting, needle felting and more. You'll find yummy recipes that I create using fresh, delicious ingredients. You'll see stories of my adventures in travel, camping, and exploring slot canyons, caves and other exciting and beautiful places in the western United States. You'll see lots of beautiful wildflower photos. And, you'll enjoy stories about my wonderful family, including our adorable Airedale, Salsa and our soon to arrive new baby kitty, Penelope (we just picked her out at the shelter yesterday and get to bring her home on Monday...we're so excited!).
This month, I'll be having give-aways! I'm still working on what the prizes will be. So, be sure to come back and see. To enter, simply leave a comment each time you stop by. I love comments! They add smiles to my day. I try to respond to each and every one of them. If you don't receive one, it's usually because the comment has a "no-reply" on it and no email address to write back to. Each comment from all of the January posts will go into the drawing(s). You can receive one entry for each blog post that you comment on. If you're a follower or become a new follower, you'll get an additional entry. I'll be drawing the name(s) of the winner(s) on February 1st.
I hope you'll come back for more visits. While you're visiting today, click HERE to pop over to Vicki's to find more party goers and wonderful bogs to visit. She has all the participants listed and linked so you can easily visit lots of them. Have fun!

Hello! Nice to meet you : )
I have enjoyed your post and I had a look around and saw your lovely creations! I am sorry though to hear about Duchess....truly. It was so kind of you to write a post about how it happened to warn us. My yorkies Emma and Betsy have had that shot before. I didn't know what it was, but I will be very careful not to get it again. Again, I am so sorry about your sweet kitty!
Hugs,
Terri

What a wonderful blog. I am going to be a new follower - and, really like the knitted hand towel - will go to Ravelry and try to find it. Thanks for the link. I am coming from Vicki's Party - enjoy. www.alaskabluemoose.blogspot.com (www.karendorcas.com)
Glad to see you at the party. You know I am already a follower ;-)

So sorry to hear about Duchess' death. I know that must have been very hard. Salsa sure is pretty. I had a wire-haired fox terrier years ago -- same kind of look, but much smaller. :) Good luck with the elimination diet. I made a lifestyle change 8 years ago, lost 30 pounds and do my best to eat right. I've been vegetarian for the past few years. By the way, I'm stopping by for the grow your blog party. Have a great day! Tammy
Just popped in, via Vicki's place, to say bonjour and will definitely be back again, I'm your newest follower.
Your blog is so interesting. I wish you good luck with your elimination diet. We have some of these problems, too. But fortunately only a few ones. Your knitting is marvelous. I'll certainly be a follower. Thanks to Vicki!I have a translation button, but it doesn't see to work always, Vicki told me it's perfect, another blogger couldn't use it. So I'll do my best to practice my English.

I have enjoyed so much reading your blog entries. I am not currently writing in mine, just reading others - maybe I will get back to that. I have knitted for probably 60 years and learned to crochet and needlepoint and cross stitch when I was a young mother in Homemaker's Club. Right now, I mainly cross stitch, but I have had fun knitting those ruffle scarves for my daughter and daughter-in-laws. I have added myself to your followers, and am looking forward to your future posts!.
YOu gifted stitcher! I am very greedily getting in a comment or two to be entered into your drawing!
And here's another comment. I'm hoping to increase my chances! ;-)
You do such beautiful work, and you are such a wonderful blog buddy. All these newbies are in for a big treat here!

I enjoyed looking at your projects. I'm sorry to hear about your kitty. My ferret Ponder went the same day too. I'm glad you're getting another kitty. My hubs didn't want more ferrets so we haven't gotten another pet yet.
What a fun blog! I'm party crashing a bit but enjoying all the blogs listed. The snuggle outfits are adorable and look so comfy for baby!
Just found your blog as part of the Grow Your Blog party and I enjoyed looking at your projects. The snuggie is adorable.
Thanks for stopping by and following my blog. It's great to find another health conscience blog. I'll enjoy learning from you.

Hi I found you threw the blog party, I love doing all kinds of things too weaving, needle felting, quilting, rug hooking-most things natural fibers. I am retired and live in rural Missouri-we love all of our wildlife visitors-i am off to explore your blog Kathy
I've had a delightful visit to your blog today...I'm a blog party guest whose nipped over from Australia on Vickie's invitation. ;D
I nipped back into your previous posts and oh I feel for your loss of Duchess and also hearing how Salsa is reacting to the changes. We let these adoring pets into our lives which is wonderful and so enriching but it hurts so much when they have to leave us.
I'm making the most of every day that Muffy (my shuh tzu shadow) is able to spend with me. ^..^
Have a wonderful time blog hopping.
Enjoy :D
Neesie ♥
