FOOD & FIBER FLOOZIE
The continuing adventures of a floozie...
I am a 70 something Yankee, now blissfully retired in South Carolina. My husband spends his time golfing and painting and drawing, while I love all crafts and lots of baking. I sell most of my crafts to raise money for various charities, and my food goes out to lots of my neighbors and friends. Why am I a floozie? Because I am so easily seduced by the next new recipe and/or the next new and shiny yarn or fabric that I see. It's always fun to try something new!

SHQ Show & Tell plus Iris visits
Shocking new video from the killer’s phone shows Renee Good’s kind last words — and the HORRIBLE things he said after he murdered her! The footage of Jonathan Ross’s personal cellphone has been release to the media, and it shows without a doubt that he killed Renee Good as punishment for refusing to be intimidated by him. Her last words were “It’s okay dude, I’m not mad at you.” Then she begins to drive away, not realizing that her kindness and forgiveness would be a death se

2025 totally finished quilts,
*** Sorry this is so late...I had problems up loading my pictures for a couple of days...finally got it resolved this morning. *** ************************************ As difficult as it is to believe that he could get any worse, Donald Trump has sunk to a new moral low. This time, however, the rebuke for his latest reprehensible behavior isn’t coming from Democrats in Congress, cable news hosts, or legal experts. It’s coming from the grieving children of a murdered lawmaker.

Totally finished quilt - QoV stars, Leila quilt top, Totally finished quilt from Pat
During a roundtable with farmers at the White House earlier this month, Donald Trump blatantly turned a blind eye to the affordability crisis, making up the bald-faced lie that prices at the grocery store are "way down" while also claiming that inflation is "essentially gone." I can't believe people still believe this stuff, all you have to do is buy groceries and gas to know it's not true.. 8647 ***************************************** Michael and I are going on an Alask

Dresses for Iris's girls, SCCL Decorating, Susan's birthday, Merry Christmas!!!
The internet is branding tRUMP a big baby after his attempt at wishing everyone a Merry Christmas, that sent social media into a frenzy. Instead of promoting brotherhood, unity, and peace on the auspicious occasion, the POTUS criticized political opponents in his Christmas message. He took to X on the holiday and wrote, “Merry Christmas to all, including the Radical Left Scum that is doing everything possible to destroy our Country, but are failing badly. We no longer have O

Wong Kim Ark (1898). 8647 ***************************************** Michael packed the car up for me Thursday morning (12/18). I replenish

Iris's 2nd totally finished quilt, caramel corn, Janice's totally finished quilt
Donald Trump is becoming that dotard. More so — he's becoming that crotchety old relative you avoid at holiday gatherings. The grubby sexist who, when not ranting and spouting all manner of insults, falls asleep at the table. Can anyone pull him back? 'Quiet, piggy.' That was the slur heard round the world. Trump was apparently so rattled by Bloomberg reporter Catherine Lucey, who dared ask about the Epstein files, that he lashed out the way he used to — the reflexive, disgus
