A couple of weeks ago, I ordered these...
Cotton Time magazine is a Japanese craft magazine. It's beautiful! I had been wanting one for some time, and when I discovered a shop on etsy that had 2 of them, and different ones too! I bought them.
There are small books within the magazines, and pull out patterns, and one came with a 2009 calendar! All of the directions are in Japanese, but what the Japanese do really well are picture directions. I can't read a word of it, but I can understand enough from the pictures!
See? There are pictures for just about every step! I can't wait to make something. Also, the magazines are pretty big, and they are pretty thick-printed on nice, thick paper. AND they open backwards! I know it's backwards to me. I'm smart enough to know that the Japanese read from right to left. I is a teacher after all! That was a joke. Get it?
Word for the day: Starbucks. I tried their apple chai today. Oh...my...warm...goodness!

Hey Julie..hate to burst your tea bubble..but the new tea drinks are loaded with calories..I will be getting the short version....even at that, it is still over 2 points per drink and in some cases more than 4 points for the tall or grande..I visited the web site tonight...but I am anxious to try them...Mom
