Birthday Buy
Tuesday, April 16, 2024
My birthday was last month, and my husband and I started a new tradition where we are taking off the day for each or our birthdays. His birthday is in November, and mine is in March, so it is fun that they are far apart in the year and gives us something to look forward to. I was born on Cape Cod, and it is probably my favorite place, so I picked to go there for my birthday. It was a little bit hard to find things that were open on a Tuesday on Cape Cod because the season hasn't opened up yet that time of year, but it was a very fun day. To drive to Cape Code is only about one hour from where we live. We first went to a French Cafe for a morning pastry and a hot drink. We walked around in downtown Hyannis and found ourselves over at the ferry. For a few minutes we impulsively thought about jumping on a ferry to go to Nantucket, but decided not to. It would have been so funny if we did that. The one place I requested if we could go was Osterville Needlepoint. This is a lovely, lovely store, and I would highly recommend it for a day trip if you needlepoint. There is a selection of Sampler Threads for cross-stitch there, but everything is for needlepoint. I purchased this little kit which I think is adorable. It is so so cute. I am going to use it for my work keys and ID card. I love the little case too. I bought this little project case from a needlepoint shop in New York City. I was there in January for a conference, and for fun on the Saturday night I walked to Greenwich Village to find this shop. I bought this as my trip souvenir.
