Leaving Me Speechless

This came in the mail today, from a friend, along with a Viking knit bracelet she made me as a birthday present and another bracelet she made with a stone that seemed to her--as it does to me--to commemorate a visit we took together to White Sands, New Mexico. I was only expecting the one bracelet, which I knew was coming since I'd measured my wrist for it, and am blown away by how perfectly suited everything is to me. I mean, does this sword pendant just screams my name. I am not sure what I do to deserve such friends, but I shall try to pay it forward soon and often.

The Other Mother's Day Present

This is Lady Mixalot, the other Mother's Day present besides the means to a concealed handgun permit. I'd thought about getting one of these for years, but always talked my way out of it under the "I don't really need that" umbrella. I may still not need her, but I absolutely love Lady M's help with such things as bread; whipped cream and meringue; and pie fillings (there's a key lime in the works for Sunday).
