Fair and Square is back!!!!!

Hey guys -- I know it seems like I disappeared, and, well, I have, but it's not really by choice.  Life is just nuts.

Be that as it may though, Jill is starting a Fair and Square exchange round.  Whose with me in the adventure?  You know it will be fun!

What have I been up to?  Well in a fast nutshell---
1.  Some stitching

2.  Some vacationing/Nike DC Women's Marathon for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Team in Training

the night before Nike -- getting prepped or the water stop

The Team in Training tent exterior at the finish line of Nike DC -- all those red and white things are handprint stickers that say "Cancer stops with _____."  I put a few up there on behalf of friends and I will admit to sniffling quite a bit.

I made it for lilac season -- Yay!

The National Gallery put up a new Turner for me (and apparently others) to appreciate:

Porcelain scent ball  (also National Gallery)

And I got to appreciate the tulips in all their glory all over town --

(rain delay at National's stadium -- that's kind of #2.5 practicing patience)

#2.6 -- enjoyed a significant quantity of negronis (courtesy of my dear brother-in-law (aka the family mixologist)

Ok, that's all I have time for right now, but I'll be back -- after all we will have to exchange F&S stories!  Don't forget to go sign up!!!!!!!
