Hi everyone and welcome back to “Coffee With Steve”!  This is actually our first coffee chat of the new year and the new decade.  Wow, so hard to believe how fast time flies.  So much happened last year, especially with my blog and all of you wonderful new friends that I have made since I first started blogging.  And much more to look forward to as we head into this new decade.  I hope all of you are having a fantastic Monday!  And for some of you it is very close to being Tuesday.  It is just so nice to meet new people and make new friends all around the world.

Well, it’s still a bit too cold to have our coffee chat outside like we used to do last summer, so we will be back at my apartment once again.  And as a nice treat, Sheree has brought along some of her delicious carrot cake for us to enjoy today.  It is just melt in your mouth kind of goodness indeed!  Thank you so much Sheree!  Don’t forget, if you would like to bring some of your favorite cookies, cake or baked goods, I will definitely give you a mention right here on our coffee chat each week.

And I have a couple other treats for us coming up in the coming weeks.  We will be visiting a couple other favorite spots to enjoy our coffee time.  So don’t forget to join us each week, you never know what we might talk about or place we might visit.  Actually our coffee chat might only be every other week, I’m not quite sure yet, we will have to wait and see about that.  And Muffin is excited now to meet all of you as you stop by.  She was a bit shy at first, but our new mystery series has really opened her up to new things.  Generally she is not a people cat, though she does like women much better than men, due to being abused by her original owner.

So any of you guys might want to be careful and not get too close, until she is ready to come around to you.  Hi Eugenia, I have your coffee right here.  You and Sheree like your coffee the same way I see.  Are you ready for some more Michelle?  Poor Dusty, didn’t listen to me, but don’t worry, I’m sure the bleeding will stop soon.  It’s only a 6 inch (15cm) scratch.  You should see some of my scars from when I first got Muffin!  She is such a loving, cuddly cat now.  Ready for some more raspberry leaf tea Simon?  I managed to convince him of the health benefits of that tea.  Looks like Muffin has decided to curl up on Renee’s lap today.

I had a request to see a pic of a quilt I made, so here it is in the pic above.  Certainly not perfect, but that’s okay, it’s nice and bright which is what I wanted.  I do enjoy sewing and would like to make another quilt, but it’s just a little too small in here to work on such a large project.  Sewing is a great hobby, plus you get to make so useful items at the same time.  And it is a good stress reliever too, especially if you can’t get outside much, like around here in winter.  Just decided to show a few pics around the place, but I will start showing more specific items as we go along.

Time flies for sure, and here we are at the end of another coffee chat.  Thank you all so much for stopping by for another visit today.  It’s always a joy to have everyone together like this.  I hope you will come around again next time.  Until then, I hope you all have a wonderful week and God bless!

Steve and Muffin.
