Time and Cost.

All my crochet items are priced according to the size and the materials I will need to finish the piece.

It's usually  two to three week from date of order to finish and delivery.

My Crochet Dresses and more..

Over the years  from time to time some spark an interest and so for the next months I will concentration on this item and crochet until everyone around me is where or using what I have made.

About six months ago someone asked me to make a sweater for her baby girl and so I started making baby things. This time, however I will not only make baby things, I will make a variety of things.

Everything I make will be for sale, or by special order.

Here is a sample of my latest work.....

Father's Day..................

Why do we celebrate mother's day and barely mention father's day?
Mothers and fathers are both important and should be celebrated.

There are many fathers who has taken on the role of mothers on a daily basis.  Do we show them our appreciation on mother's day? No. Therefore, it is only fitting that we do so on father's day.

For a long time my Dad was also my Mom and when he died in 2006 I felt as if I was an orphan.

Let celebrate our fathers that are still with us and show them our appreciation.

MAKE THIS FATHER'S DAY A VERY SPECIAL ONE FOR HIM!

Are we losing our femininity?

As a young girl growing up, I was taught that a ladies’ under things was not for public viewing. A lady should sit with their legs together and cross at the ankle and always mind your manners (your language) especially in public.
Today, however, all of that is gone to the dogs. Ladies think that it’s fashionable to have bra straps as part of their outer wear and underwear (panties) under the sheerest of dresses or pants. Gone are the days when young ladies wear under slips, appropriate under wears or dresses that cover things that should be shown only in the bedroom.

I remember older ladies would pull us over to tell us that our slip was too long, our bra straps were showing or we need to change our clothes because our under wears were showing through.

These days you dear not say anything to a female, young or otherwise unless you are prepared to be cursed out. As female, we no longer take pride in how we carry ourselves. We think looking trashy is sexy.

Sometimes I see ladies sit on the train or buses with their legs spread, or the language coming from their mouth in a casual conversation is embrassing to see and hear.

The way we talk, walk, and conduct ourselves should be all the sexy that is need to be seen.

I am just saying when too many eyes are on you and too many whistles are blowing at you it’s not always a good thing.

Grand Kids...I can name them all.

A few years ago on mother’s day in church pastor asked all mothers, grandmother and great grandmother to stand up, then he asked all mother only to sit.


I kept on standing and he said, “Angela, are you a grand mother?” I said, yes I am, then he said how many grand kids do you have, I said seven, he said name them.



I did name them but it took me a minute to make sure I did not leave anyone out. I did not expect him to call on me to name my grand kids so I was not prepared. Now I have nine and I must say I can name then all in lest than fifteen seconds.



I love all my grandkids; they are an extension of me. I always try to remember their birthdays and send them a present, not because I have to but just to let them know that I remember and love them.

This week I have two birthdays, my third and fourth grand children, Xavier and Imani, both on May 10th; I remember getting the phone call on the same day.



HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU BOTH.

Do you know the State you live in?

When I came to this country I was twenty two years old. I had left my beautiful Jamaica behind me. Every now and then someone would ask me something specific about my Island paradise and I did not know. I had never visited all the wonderful places and sites that visitors would come to my country to see, therefore I did not know my own country.

I promise myself that, that would not happened again, but due to my business NY life I have not had the time to keep that promise, however, starting this spring I will be on a mission to visit as much sites in New York as I can before leaving this beautiful state. The first place I am going to see is this subway station.

It was built in 1906 and was later abandon in 1945 because no too many people used it and also because of the curve in the station platform there is a gap between the train and platform which makes it a little dangerous.

In 1995 the city planned to turn it into a museum but that plan never gets off the ground. So if you are visiting New York and have the time, take the #6 train to the last stop and stay on and while it makes that loop to go back uptown you will see what only a few people in NY knows about, a piece of NY history that is buried underground, as it is not opened to the public.
