Originally, the thought was to make a pair of booties, but after making the first one and realizing it looked too large, I checked the pattern and saw I had cast on too many stitches. The second one looked lots better, meaning I have to rip out that first stay on bootie and start all over. Can I get it done in time for Sunday when the hand off is to occur?

And, in the meantime, this is on the needles: Norwegian Shawl or Scarf.
For your culinary pleasure, I was directed toward a recipe that is excellent; a fairly heavy zucchini cake with lots of cream cheese frosting with zested orange. Have a look here. My notes here.
Leaving you with this bumblebee on a cosmos. They are busy little things.

ReplyDeleteThe beanie and the slippers look so cozy, Nancy! The cake? Can I have some? You're a good homemaker!
ReplyDeleteYou've been a busy bee too, I think! lovely snippets that I've been catching up with today. The cake looks gorgeous - I like moist cakes like these and add a smidgeon of cream cheese frosting and you've got my vote! Hope you are having a good week, Nancy. Sending you a hug E x
