Jun 19, 2006 Tum ta daMy weekend was actually enjoyable. I love my family...even if they make me nuts
Friday I didn't actually do much. Justin had baseball games. I did get to go to the LYS and knit a little bit. Had to get back by 6:30 so that Kyle (who was watching the kids) could go to his game. Not sure what I was knitting at the shop though! lol I did show off the things I was sending to my SP, the pictures will be posted after I'm sure she's already gotten her stuff. I think that I was knitting my MP. Makes sense right? Saturday I went to the Riverwalk festival down by Josh and Mali's. Kyran was in a pie eating contest. He got a dollar and a t-shirt. :) Even though he totally lost. lol I don't think he was fond of the pie. Then we all went home, had a bite to eat. Tyler finally gave me a call, silly boy! So I got to go hang out with him, and realize I'm a complete dork cuz I kept talking about knitting. Father's day, I took Justin to see DaVinci Code and then went to Walmart with Emily to pick out fabric to make her a knitting bag. She's really excited about it. The fabric choices were pretty cute too.
Anyway, I started my Jaywalkers! They're really adorable. Not sure if it's the pattern, doing socks again, or the yarn. Either way, I'm excited about them. Though I have a million things to get done. I need to start a scarf, but I wanna talk to Linda about it first. Justin isn't supposed to have games, so I should be able to go to the shop tomorrow night. Emily wants to start a new project too.
Right now I want to get around to sewing up my shirts, and dyeing some yarn. :) I think I'll dye some for myself first, kinda get the hang of it. Then I will do the yarn for Jamie's pedicure socks. Right now the only projects I have to do are that scarf and the MP. Which I'm actually moving along with. Only a few more inches! By that I mean about ... six. I really wanna cast on for those Thuja socks too, but I have to adjust the pattern for actual sock yarn, that awesome Fear the Turtle yarn from Mama E. So once again I have to talk to Linda. I think I'll just, do a gauge swatch!
Okay...that's enough. I'll have more pictures later, of Emily's bag, my (Jamie's) Jaywalkers, the yarn I hope to dye, and so on.20:51

What kinda pie was it? I want to be in a pie eating contest! I love pie.
You'd think that after living for 2 years in an apartment without a working oven (ok, it worked but it was filthy and there were mice living in it) I'd be all gung ho to bake in my current house. I have so many good baking recipes. But the only baking I've done has been a box of brownie mix and that came out so-so.

It was cherry pie. I'm not all too fond of cherry pie myself. Not really fond of pie in general, except for chocolate or peanut butter pies.
I LOVE to bake! Might be part of my affinity for junk food, but I like to think it's because baking is more science than art, you follow the directions and it should come out right. lol That's what I'm good at, following directions. My mom thinks I'm just a crafting genuis, I swear that it's purely coincidental. I can just read. :D
