I need a button that will play those words on demand. Boring stories by your friends? Mundane office meetings? Shopping for a bathing suit? It works for all occasions. Try it yourself.

Summer Olympics. Cannot wait. Opening ceremonies? Ho hum. I always watch and I'm always bored. Hoping this year is better. Maybe a little wardrobe malfunction will break the monotony of the nationalistic, self-obsessed performances of the past. (Tell us how you really feel, Ter.) Please -- no stilts, trapeze artists or cirque de soleil wannabes!
Best thing I've eaten this week: Pot Roast. Here's the recipe I shared with my daughter: mix 1 pkg brown gravy mix, 1 pkg onion soup mix, 2 cups water, 1 small container apple sauce. Brown the beef, then simmer 3 hours or until tender. Add carrots and potatoes last 30 mins. You will love it. Guaranteed. (You can crock pot it, too.)

Dylusions ink sprays. Colorful, free flowing, easy clean up, great with stamps or stencils. You using them yet? I got mine at Artist Cellar - see link at right.
Like smocking? My friend Shirley has an amazing machine that does all the pleating gathers for you. She gave me a fabulous tutorial yesterday on using the machine and how to do various smocking stitches. Loving it.

Love that quote! So many uses...
Never thought of applesauce in a pot roast recipe. I guess it kind of makes sense - will have to try it.
Happy weekend Teri! :)
Too hot for pot roast.
Like the quote maybe you can make a Tim Gunn doll and record the words and have a button where the dolls speaks the words!
I was amazed that the ugly "underwhelming" apron made it through, but the umbrella outfit was worse!!
God I love Tim Gunn! My daughter and I are always telling each other to "make it work."
I don't even care much for pot roast and that recipe makes me want some!
The pot roast sounds great!! How were the opening ceremonies?
Love the quote. Pot roast looks great. I have a similar recipe I'll share with you (cranberry sauce instead of applesauce).
I thought the opening ceremonies were ambitious, sometimes wonderful, but ultimately too long and yes, a bit boring.
Aren't the Dylusions sprays great?
There are waaaay too many cool machines out there, just calling my name. I'm not that much into sewing, but the pleating machine even tempted me.
How is Ali?
That's one bitchy remark to give to friends, but on enemies? mmmm, could be useful. ;-)
that smockmachine is amazing, I had no idea such a thing existed!
I just adore Tim Gunn! What a great quote. I make t-shirts and that would be hilarious to put on the front.
Your pot roast photo looks so yummy, I want to eat it for breakfast!!!
Hmmmm..... that sounds GOOD. I need to copy this recipe down Teri. Do I just stick it all in at one time into teh crock pot and let it go?
I bet you liked the Olympic ceremony... I didn't watch myself but parts of it (mr. Bean, the Queen on a parachute) made the news even in the Netherlands and it made me smile... it was quite 'British' and humourfull!
I am new to your wonderful blog :) That smocking machine - I've never seen anything like it - brilliant! Lovely to 'meet'you, XOLaura
Love that quote and Project Runway - it always makes me want to be a fashion designer (did you ever get Fashion Wheel in the US, that was one of my fave toys ever as a kid!)
I love that quote too! It's so appropriate for so many things..
Your pot roast looks yummy - I know a carnivore that would love it. thanks for the recipe!
Hi Teri
What an amazing machine!
I've never seen one like that before.
Just think how much time it would save!
My Heart Strings are now finished and up on my post.
Hope life is good!
Hugs and love,
Suzy
