I kicked off with a pancake brunch and orange-pineapple mimosas.
I'm working on quilting a pair of commission quilts and am loving how they are coming along so far. My go-to when quilting/sewing is typically TV shows or movies, and currently I've been rocking some Bones and Tangled the Series episodes.
I watched the live stream of the Pope's Urbi et Orbi blessing from Rome, which was beautiful. Aside from the visuals of the rainy evening in an empty St. Peter's Square, his meditation on the Gospel reading of Jesus calming the storm at sea is worth reading: find the full full text here.
The weather has been alternating sunny and rainy it seems here, but I've been getting out to walk around the neighborhood almost every day and mixing in some yoga too. Pulled out my clarinet too and having fun going through some of my old music and things.
Instead of cake, I made a pavlova and it turned out so great! It's meringue on the bottom, homemade whipped cream, then homemade lemon curd, and fresh raspberries, blueberries and mango. Finished up the night with a family video chat to celebrate. As a fun twist, my parents also made their own pavlova, so we could have dessert together-but-not-together! Brilliant!

I also decided to start a #100daysproject which I've seen over the years, but never committed to for myself. Starting on my B!day, I'm making a block a day and my theme is Stars because it's my favorite shape.
I'm logging my blocks on my Instagram and Twitter (@bumblybzs) with the tag: #bumblybzs100days so check it out.
