Today was beautiful! The weather was so inviting. I worked outside in my nice wool sweater and was very comfortable. I pulled the plastic off the winter growing bed, and removed the sadly abused leeks. The flavor of the remaining stumps is amazing and the soup I made with it for dinner tonight was superb, [...]

My friend decided to start a personal challenge of knitting a pair of socks each month for 11 months, in 2011. The ommission of December is because, well who wants to have anything uneccessary to do during that month? When I heard, I thought it was brilliant. I could use more socks, and once you’ve [...]

It's kind of nice to have friends who don't really use the computer. Don't get me wrong, I don't understand it, I don't know how they do it, and I have no desire to be like them, but it does make it fun when it comes to posting gifts you've made, before you give them, [...]

Two Red Sweaters with White Snowflake buttons, all made by mama.

My grandparents spend their winter's in Florida now, and Gram didn't want to wait until the end of December to make the trip. For this reason, this year, that side of the family celebrated Thanksmas. We enjoyed Thanksgiving dinner, followed by the family Christmas gift swap, followed by Thanksgiving leftovers for dinner, including fried stuffing! [...]

There is still so much to be done around her, but my get up and go has got up and left…Oh, going off on a tangent, remember that public service ad with that line, something like "When my get up and go, has got up and left, I hanker for a hunk of cheese". My [...]
She Refinished a Dresser October 22, 2010

I found a very bright yellow dresser at a second hand store, and after a little discussion, paid $22.00 and put it in my car. I'm bad at remember "before" pictures, as I always want to dive in to a new project, but the whole thing was the color of the drawers, and here it [...]

The second pair of mittens for Mini are half done. I am thinking she needs 4-5 pairs for winter and I am going to see if I can make them all before Monday at Midnight…5 pair of mittens in 1 week. We'll see. I'm loving the pattern so much, and this second pair is made [...]
She’s Shared some Links Instead of Complaining! March 16, 2010

I'm in a foul mood today. I'm not sure why…maybe it's that I have been working on taxes, so spent the day beating myself up over procrastinating with the bookkeeping…there is nothing more annoying than listening to yourself scold you all day long. The biggest problem with being your own boss…when the boss gets all [...]
