2 weeks until the Iowa shop hop and we are getting ready. 
We are not taking a bus due to the illness of my mother.  Plans are to do a bus trip this fall.
I believe it will be more relaxing then.  We are getting Christmas and fall fabric in the shop!
Really  hard for me to think Christmas but it comes around fast. 
Check out this recipe-I love rhubarb-
2 c. rhubarb
1/3 c sugar
1/4 c. water
1/4 tsp cinnamon
Bring to boil.  Simmer 8-10 minutes. Stir in 1/2 tsp. honey.  Pour over ice cream.
