Friday links! Geese, pies, patterns and cries

For a few months now, I’ve been putting links in the sidebar to things that strike my fancy. Starting this week, though, I’m trying something new. I’ve removed the sidebar links, and I’m going to hoard them all until Fridays. When I’ll put them right here as a post.

Like this:

  • Chris at A Free Man is experiencing Terror in Happy Valley as he’s harassed by a gang of blood-thirsty fowl. I’m not a fan of birds. This story made me shudder.
  • Deb at Smitten Kitchen made some Bourbon Peach Hand Pies, and they look delicious. I think I’ve only made my own pie crust once, though. I’m not going to be trying this any time soon.
  • There’s a really cute pattern for a dishtowel apron at Made by Petchy. It looks pretty simple, too.
  • One the not-so-simple front, UK Lass in the US made a fabric dollhouse! And she’s sharing how she did it.
  • The writing at Sweet Juniper makes me teary-eyed on a regular basis. But when I read this post on Poppy’s birthday, it was a full-on weep fest.
