Let me introduce myself… I am Sue Bee!

Hi there! I used to live in the North Country of NY State. It’s not just Upstate, it’s WAAAYYYY Upstate, about 25 minutes from the border of Quebec, Canada, and a ferry ride away from the state of Vermont! That kind of gives you a rough idea of the region. I packed up and moved clear across the country with my partner/boyfriend, and settled in an area near Sacramento, California.

It was a really huge deal for us to empty out our home, pack up what little was left, and drive nearly 3,000 miles away from everything we have ever known! But we are loving it here, and although we really miss our families, we don’t miss the winter snow and ice back in New York State.

I’m a mom to three boys, now grown and raising their own children. My boys and their wives/girlfriends have given me (so far) a total of 13 grandchildren! Four boys and nine girls, ranging in age from 15 months to almost 15 years old. I am always crocheting or knitting something from yarn for one or more of them! In addition, my boyfriend/partner has 3 young adult children. Between us, there are numerous nieces and nephews, one great-nephew, and several brothers and sisters. I try to make nice things for all of them!

I also love recipes… all kinds of recipes! I have started collecting family recipes that have been passed down over the years. I’m gladly sharing these recipes with you! And if you have any favorites you’d like to share, I’ll gladly check out any you want to share with me! You can share them here.

Please bear with me as I try to get organized and start sharing any new things I’ve made! You may notice that a few items have watermarks on them from another website, NoCoCrafts or Owl Bee Darned. Sadly, I had some problems with that site and the hosting of it, so I had to close it down. I am using the many of the same images used on that site. Hope you enjoy viewing all the things I’ve made! If you have any comments or questions, please don’t hesitate to drop me a note or comment on the posts!!
