Kids’ update

E made a quilt top and sent it to Missouri Star to have it quilted. She chose the stitching pattern and let them choose the color of thread. The finished quilt was delivered yesterday and E said she's happy with how it turned out. Andy said Grandma would not have approved of machine-quilting lol. E needs to bind the edges. She could of have that done for her too, but she said she enjoys binding so she wanted to do it herself. She promised to send a picture of the quilt but later said she'll wait until the binding is on so it looks better.
Aw, Danny was playing with Azula while E and I were Facetiming the other night. E and Danny (not Azula) went out for sushi the other night and since they usually eat in, it was a nice treat.
B accidentally left the burner on while he was eating dinner and his plastic colander melted. Oops.
He redeemed himself in the kitchen by baking a strawberry cake. No frosting necessary.
L has been working her new job at Journeys and bought these socks. She had a sales goal of selling five pairs the other day (her first day on the sales floor) and sold 10! The other employees were asking her if she's worked in retail before. Her manager told her she's doing a great job and has a "strong work ethic in getting things done."
She's already bought these shoes and has another pair (that I know of) on order. I'm concerned she'll spend her whole paycheck on shoes.
Temps in Champaign were over 50 today. L is sporting sandals and said lots of boys were wearing shorts. It was our warmest day of 2021.
