More Pyrex In Action


Christmas cookies from December of 2010. Really good. Standard recipe from the chocolate chip bag only with M&M's instead of chips.

Shells



 Crocheted bedspread on the line after washing.

Pop Art In Onion



Pretty red onion being sliced up for vegetable soup, and the soup! From November 2010.

Still Life In Pink



Some old photos from October of 2010, red grapes with curly stems in a Pyrex "Gooseberry" fridgie.

Pawprints

In January some mysterious kitty left a trail of dusty pawprints on my car overnight. ^^

Lovely in Yellow

Some pansies from February.


Pineapple Upside Down Cupcakes


Made pineapple upside-down cupcakes in March, thought I'd post a pic here so I can remember to make them again! You make them just like the cake, only smaller. :) Soooo good.

Ripple Afghan

I've started making an afghan from the gorgeous pattern Neopolitan Ripple, from here:

I liked it because of the softness of the wave. I started a Crochetalong on Craftster, although so far I'm in the canoe and paddling alone, haha:

Mine will be cream, beige, and green. I also signed up on Ravelry for another year of 12" squares, so that will take some catching up.

May 3, 2012

I know I've mostly abandoned this blog for a few years. My focus has been on writing rather than crafts. I missed the old template and all the old buttons and badges I'd collected in the sidebar, but I didn't feel like fiddling with code anymore. Most of all I missed the pictures at the top of my Rosie and Lily who are now both over the rainbow bridge. The whole blog made me nostalgic and wistful.

But I've started a couple of new projects and I need a place to gab about them and post pics. I've got better net access again and can navigate Craftster once more. I might try to rebuild Squirrel's Worlds.
