Friday nights at Caribou coffee were amazing times. Marva would bring her mom and we would sit and tell stories and laugh all night long. So many beading and crochet and knit projects were completed there. I miss those days.

I loved hanging out with her and her mother on Friday nights at the coffee shop. We had so many laughs, stitching and beading together.
