bits and bobs: A random assortment of things; small remaining pieces and things
A large golf umbrella for only $4.97. What a deal. Seriously. It seems like deals are far and few between these days. I think this is a great price.
Have you ever used a sauna before? Did you enjoy it? I think maybe I tried one when I was a teenager. I would never buy one, but I thought the shape of this one was kind of cool.
Did you know Fig Newtons were made in Mexico?
Have you seen the ads for the $50 cashmere sweaters from Quince? They look so cozy and the reviews are fantastic but I don’t like buying clothing online because returns can be such a pain.
Have you ever bought anything from the Quince website? If so I’d love to hear what you think about their products.
I spied this granny square steering wheel cover in someone’s car and it made me smile.
I LOVE the granny square! I tried crochet once and it did not go well. But maybe I should give it another go? I wonder how long it would take to make one.
And last but not least, this is what the front garden looked like last year on this day.
Rain is in the forecast {2.5″} for the next two days so no playing in the yard for me. Oh well. I guess means I’ll just have to stay indoors and work on my rugs. Maybe I’ll make a pot of wild rice chicken soup.
How about you? What are you up to day? Anything good?

My husband learned to crochet 5 years ago starting with a granny square! He loves it. My 2 coworkers also just learned to crochet after watching me do it on my lunch hour. I suggest watching TL yarn crafts on YouTube. She is an incredible teacher.
