Today I hit a milestone. I did a front squat with 120lbs! It's hard but it feels so good. I was very happy because I couldn't do the first one, took a break and then I nailed it! I really enjoy working out with weights, we ladies need to be stronger the older we get! Don't be afraid of weight lifting.

Now for a change of direction......this weekend I had some quilters over to work on baking some cookies for our quilt show this spring. It was a practice session.

Leslie was in charge. She has all the supplies and the know how to make beautiful cookies using fondant. This is the first year we will be doing our own food and one of the things we will be making are sewing themed cookies to sell.

So we did some experimenting and nailed down which ones we are going to make. Has anyone else made these or something like it for a quilt show? Any comments or suggestions? I would love to hear them!

you are so good and I love the reminder about weights...I don't do that enough! The cookies are adorable and I wish I could be there to contribute!
ReplyDeleteGood for you on the weight lifting! And those cookies look fabulous!:)
ReplyDeleteGo Superwoman!! That's awesome!! Those cookies are so pretty, like works of art!
ReplyDeleteMake sure you get the required permit(s) to sell food! We learned the hard way!
ReplyDeleteOh I would not only be bragging--I'd be screaming it down the street--Congratulations! As for the cookies, they look so.... nice. I am sure you will having a class act cookie variety and display! I think you saw the Buttons I recently had posted!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the milestone! You are a quilting Terminator!
ReplyDeleteThose cookies look so yummy! I hope you have a spotter when you lift, that is just amazing! Good for you!!
ReplyDeleteThose cookies look like works of art. Food permits, allergy warnings, individually wrapped all of which comes to mind. I knew a friend who ran a gift/consignment store was selling bags of spices and was not allow to carry them in the store.
ReplyDeleteCongratulation on hitting that goal!
Wow...we better behave or you'll start throwing us around. Cookies are cute. A lot of work!
ReplyDeleteCongrats!! Wow good for you. I have to rededicate myself to weights - there in the basement - now to use them! So important for healthy bones.
ReplyDeleteI love your pretty cookies - how did they taste? what a fun idea and day
Awesome! Strong is beautiful. You are my inspiration. I'm having trouble getting myself to the weight class. Helens button cookies looked clever and delicious. I'd buy those!
ReplyDeleteWow Kelly!!! 120lbs!!!! That's amazing!! Go girl!
ReplyDeleteI am barely able to do a squat, no weights. Physical Therapy for my ankle is way harder than I though it would be.
ReplyDeleteThose cookies look amazing.
Those cookies are wonderful! I've never been to a quilt show that had anything that neat. And you have members who are willing to learn. Sounds like a great quilt group.
