I Love God above all. I studied nursing at College of the ozarks and now wOrk at mercy in springfield missouri. The more I'm in nursing the more i am challenged and the more I see the possibilities to serve others, and make a difference in the world. I love people. I am the most selfish person at heart, but God gives me the love and grace for others. Really, what better life can one have than serving God wholeheartedly by being his hands and feet to others. Of course I don't always feel that way, but I try my best. I have three great brothers, three wonderful sisters in law, a nephew and niece each and the best parents in the world. I also have many wonderful, encouraging friends who help keep me on track serving the Lord in all things. I am blessed beyond belief to marry my best friend Johnathann Byrd. I love him more every day and am so stoked to spend my life with him, wherever that journey takes us. Ask me our story sometime, then for a good time ask him as well... :)

It is very easy to do, only takes about 10 minutes of active work, and the patience to wait a few weeks to let the flavors meld. Once made, your coffee liqueur will keep safely on the shelf for at least 6 months - and probably for much longer.
As with anything, the quality of the ingredients does impact on the eventual taste, but the recipe as follows is for a pretty quick and easy and affordable concoction – after all, if you're going to spend a fortune on ingredients…why not just buy the original in the first place! 2010 Top Flops and Posts that Pop Strawberry-Maragarita-Jello-Shooter-Bakers-Royale – Bakers Royale. - StumbleUpon.

Also known as: Hungarian braided chain stitch The braided chain stitch is worked almost the same way as the heavy chain stitch.
There is only a slight difference in the way the needle is taken under the existing loops, thus giving it a totally different and embossed look.

A couple of weeks ago, Susan showed some very cool embroidered pictures of cottages on her T-Cozy blog.
Knowing that I sell copies of vintage patterns on my website, she emailed to ask if I knew anyone who could take her original picture and make a pattern from it. It was a challenging picture to trace (lots of tiny leaves and flowers) but I told her I'd do it. Yes, it's possible to digitally trace original embroidery but it's not magic—you still have to do all the tracing. It's just done with a mouse instead of a writing instrument and a steady hand and graphic design background doesn't hurt either. The pattern is now for sale and you can head over to her latest blog post for ordering information.
