It's Monday, dear ones.
♥
Doug was gone this past weekend, deer hunting with his brothers. When I came home from work on Thursday there were flowers waiting for me, so I got to enjoy the beauty of a little "hunter's guilt" all weekend.
{My SIL Laurie said she got flowers too.}
Since our boys were all hunting, I had my three SIL's over for
Girls Night In on Friday and we tried that basil jelly that my friend Patty sent me. It was a huge hit! We all loved it.
The color of this jelly was so pretty - I want a sweater in that
exact shade.
Softened cream cheese with basil jelly in the center - served with crackers.
Oh, and wine...
Firefly Ridge wine because...well...
you know...I liked the label!
Saturday morning I drank coffee from my favorite cup, and then cleaned up from Girl's Night In.
{Me and my SIL's...we sure know how to have a good time...just sayin'...}
Took it easy all day on Saturday...
And I ate way more candy corn than I care to admit.
Oh, and I did some coloring for
Mel's project.
{loved every minute of it!}
And that was pretty much it. I ended up nursing a stupid head cold and did nothing at all on Sunday. I even missed my friend's Witch Hat Decorating party {insert pouting here!}. Monday has come around much sooner than I cared for it to... ~sigh~
Grace and blessings to us all this week!

Sorry to hear about the cold, but the SIL party sounds like lots of fun. I've never heard of basil jelly, but must look up a recipe as I still have quite a bit of basil on my patio. Your photos are wonderful!
The flowers were a great start to a nice weekend. Hope you feel better.
Yay! Can't wait to see your colouring :) And hooray for time spent with friends and wine!!

Hope the cold soon clears up....but Friday evening and Saturday sound like fun.
A good weekend to recharge your batteries it seems.

I always choose wine based on the label! And how cool is colouring? I'm sure that's why I love stamping so much.
By the way, I'm long overdue sending you a proper e-mail. Forgive me. I'll write soon x
PS Your cat could make me love cats :)

Apart from the cold, and they are never good, the rest of the weekend sounds quite fantastic!
Sorry to read you were sick. Hopefully the Girl-Time and those lovely "hunter's guilt flowers" helped you get through. : )

Sounds like you had a really good weekend, well aside from the cold. Hope you're feeling much better this morning. That basil jelly sounds interesting.
Sounds like a fun weekend to me :) I've not heard of basil jelly either - interesting! Love the colour too :) Hope you get over the head cold soon. xx
aside from the cold, what a great weekend. i never mind when roger goes away for a few days. it gives me an excuse to do tons of me things or nothing at all.
