Introducing….my Lazy Susan…









Here she is, my special helper, Lazy Susan. Not only does she turn around and hold my ingredients, she has style! With her ceramic blue and cream dishes, made to fit perfectly together, and nice swirly shape, I cannot live without her! When I need a pin to hold my fabric together, just a turn and there they are!
