March 2011
AHHHH....
In just a few days it will officially be springtime. March 20 marks the vernal equinox. That's also the date day and night are both approximately 12 hours long. And the day the sun rises exactly due east and sets exactly due west. When I was a kid I was fascinated when someone told me if on this date I sat the small end of an egg on a flat surface the egg would stay perfectly balanced. Of course, in my mom's world testing that statement wasn't worth wasting an egg so I didn't get to test it until I was in my 30's. The egg sat perfectly balanced in my kitchen window for about a week. After a week I wanted to make sure it was really balanced and that I hadn't placed it on a sticky bug or fingerprint and I ruined the experiment by moving the egg!
Click the title of this paragraph and you'll be taken directly to a new website that came to me highly recommended. It helps quilters find fabric and quilting supplies. Type what your looking for in their search box and it will search hundreds of online stores to find exactly what your looking for. You can even search by uploading a picture! The only things I'm looking for right now are TIME and SANITY. They couldn't help me in my search this time but I bookmarked their webpage for future searches.
