Sparrow Scrapper's Weekend

Once again, Sparrow Scrappers invaded the Holiday Inn Express in Okemos for a weekend of scrapbooking, cardmaking, laughing, talking and tequila. The amount of stuff hauled into the hotel to support these habits is incredible! The atmosphere was one of creativity, comraderie and excellent food. Rather than "buying out," and taking time away from the fun, everyone brings something. Wendy brought the best potato salad I've every had; Joan brought Irish potato -cabbage soup---including the option to add corn beef; Lisa brought cornbeef sandwich fixings. There was also chili, cornbread, and gads of wonderful salads. I can't forget the homemade sugar cookies, brownies, lemon bars and rice crispy treat! I didn't stay at the hotel like most people did-it's too close to home. It's a lot of fun - there are sister, mothers-daughters, cousins and friends getting together to do what they enjoy most.
