Spending time with Baylie.

 I gave her a choice to bake 

 Christmas cookies or Peanut butter cookies.

She choose peanut butter cookies.

she added the sugar

 

 

and added the eggs 

 cracked them and all

  I was so impressed

 not a piece of egg shell in the batter

 

  

she measured out the soda, and the rest of the 

dry ingredients

and put it in the batter

and she tasted it to make sure it was good

we formed little balls and laid them on the 

 cookie sheet and she pressed them with a fork

in a criss cross pattern.

and put them in the oven to bake

 

 

and yes once the cookies were out of the oven 

and we were waiting on them to cool off

i braided her hair and we cleaned up.

 we poured us a cup of milk

 and tasted the finished cookies.

 

 

They were Delicious !!

 Thank you for spending the afternoon with me

 Baylie. I enjoyed the day.

and hope you did to.

 

love and blessings

Bathroom

I finally found some glass

 door knobs for my shelf

in my bathroom.

 Reflection in the mirror

 

lovely glass door knobs to hang  our towels on to dry

 I dislike wet towels in the hamper.

Details in the shelf

Added some accessories 

What do you think?

 We love it.

 An I guess that's what matters.

A New Love

Aprons

 Found  this one at a local

thrift store.

It feels so broken in.
Wonder if they are missing it?
I know I'm enjoying it.

I have made some from new fabric

but none feel quite so comfy as this one.
 Maybe I need to were them more often
 so they need more washing.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving

Scrubbies / Dishrags

                                           I recently tried to make some scrubbers
                                  so I bought 3 yards of netting and cut it into 1 1/2 "strips

                                                             Which made a Hugh pile

                                           
                                       I tied the netting together and knitted it together with
                                                                100% cotton yarn.

                                               
                                                                     finished result

                                                      
                                                            I love using it to rinse dishes
                                                           it has just enough roughness to
                                                           get the grime off of the dishes with
                                                                        little effort.
                                                               So far I made 2 of them
                                                                   and use them daily.
                                                              This a small project
                                                          I can carry in my purse and
                                                           knit whenever I'm waiting on
                                                    someone or something, or Traveling
                                                     or just sitting around watching TV.
                                                   I also like to make dish rags and have
                                                    made lots of those as gifts and sold a
                                                           few. This is also a quick
                                                    and easy project that can be taken
                                                                    with you.
                                         here's a few dishrags I have in my knitting basket

Recent Finds

                                       
                                          I found these at a thrift store
                                                             all white and lovely

 
                                                     found a special place for them in my
                                                                     work room.
