A really sweet lady at church ran out of food before her pay check came in a couple of weeks ago. Initially I gave her my phone # to call me if she needed anything....but realized if she was like me, I wouldn't call so I loaded up several bags of groceries from my freezer & took the food over to her home. Had a wonderful visit with her too. It's awesome really getting to know people I'm around on a more personal level.

I am painting a baby gift for a friends new baby. Baby's room is all about foxes so I designed & am painting a cute fox & her name on a huge letter "E" the first initial of the baby's name. I didn't have it completed for the baby shower but sketched it out with felt pens on a piece of paper I attached to the wooden letter I had stained. It's going to be adorable & a very personal sort of crafty gift.

Does feeding my wild mommy raccoon & her 5 babies count? Mommy raccoon was starving thin when she came to my back door....I fed her then realized she was nursing.....then a fre weeks later she brought her babies with her....who can resist feeding those adorable little critters.
