Visit The Adirondacks And Go Lake Hopping!
Last year on our yearly adventures in North American we drove through the Adirondack mountains on our way to Lake George, and well, actually we got a bit lost, on account of no cell phone service! I was actually really happy to see some of the places I'd read about, like Tupper Lake and Long Lake and of course Raquette Lake as well, seen here. And let me tell you, the Adirondack mountains are full of lakes and of course mountains and just all around gorgeousness, so much so that this year we'll actually be spending at least four nights in the region, can't wait! In the mean time, have…

Crocheted T-Shirt Yarn Flower Medallion Stool Cover
One of my very favorite things to crochet is a stool cover, and here are my two new favorites………in bright colors to match my all new Moroccan turquoise couches, really! And the fun thing about these crocheted stool covers is that they are crocheted using industrial t-shirt yarn, so each one only takes around 2 hours or even less, especially once you get the hang of it. So if you don't own any round stools, run to get some, because, take my word for it, this crochet project is a must!
