You Are So Full Of Things I Want to Make!
Ok, so I read about this really cool fabric basket-thing on PerpetualPlum's Weblog because Not Martha blogged a bunch of links. She also blogged that reusable sandwich thing that I am obsessed with. (And still haven't made, mind you).
I did, however, make and serve the chocolate minty cloud cake. Do you like the name? Or do you perhaps prefer Thin Mint Cake? (Even though I used pretend Thin Mints...) Whatever it should be called, it tasted really good. Everyone commented (except my sister) that the minty flavor was mellow, and the whole thing wasn't too sweet. So, overall a success, I think.
I am knitting a scarf, because as of last Friday, I knit now. (Badly). I am making a scarf from the book I bought, and it is slow going for me. I am used to sewing, where I can punch something out fairly quickly- this knitting thing takes some patience! (Which I lack). I'll post a pic when I have a chance to take a picture in daylight.
I also have on the back burners: a baby sling that will fit R (I already have one), a pillow case for R my husband is funny- check out the fabric he picked, and various sundry Christmas gifts that are in the pipeline. I also want to make a quilt for Peanut's big girl bed out of scraps of fabrics I have used to make her things with, and I was also planning on making some crib sheets out of our old sheets that the cats destroyed. I think I need to make a priority crafty-list. Maybe that will be added to the blog sidebar soon... As if it weren't busy enough.
