A Very Good Day

 Today was my craft groups's bi-weekly meet-up.  We even had someone new show up who found us on Instagram -- she's from Washington State and has only been in Kuwait since June of last year.
Didn't get any good pictures, but there was a parade at the restaurant complex where we met -- never could figure out what exactly it was for but certainly made for an interesting morning (I got some video of the dancers and marching band that I posted to my IG account.)
Received some really lovely belated birthday gifts from one of my craft friends that she brought back from her recent trip to India.
The chocolate was toffee and so delicious with coffee this afternoon.
Another craft friend shared this beautiful mandala art with us that she did yesterday at a workshop she hosted for a yoga retreat.
And finally, a photo from my evening walk.

It really was a very good day.

Happy weekend!

Yes, dear Tammy, that definitely sounds and looks like a good day! Gorgeous handicrafts, good food, an exciting parade, nice gifts - and most importantly: being with lovely people, what could be better? Your photo from the evening walk looks very pretty too.
Hugs & happy March days!

Tammy - glad you had a good day. I continue to host my craft group, but only get 4 - 5 people each time. And most of them come to chat and snack - not too much crafting going on. But I am happy to provide an opportunity for all of us to get together, and I get to stitch!
