WIP
Hello! I wanted to drop by and tell you about my latest project. My new scarf! Well actually it is half of a new scarf!
I have started knitting the Saroyan by Liz Abinante. It is lovely. I am half way done which is awesome as I should have cast on Christmas presents instead of something for me :)
Cookies
Well you know how I can't turn down a good cookie idea. I attempted to make candy corn sugar cookies for an October party. They turned put quite lovely.
They are super simple to make. Just make your favorite sugar cookie recipe. Split it into three parts. Add food coloring so you have a yellow third and an orange third.
Layer them in a pan. First making sure it is covered in Saran wrap. Let this chill all the way through. I mixed up my dough before work and left it all day.
Finally remove it from the dish and cut into strips. Cut the strips into triangles. And tada! candy corn. Putting sprinkles and sugar on them make them all sparkly.
New App
I am attempting to blog from a new app on my phone so we will see how that ends up.

It's Alive!!
Oh wow! I thought it had just been a month since I had written but it has been two! I don't know about you but when school starts things get a little crazy around here. I have been busy crafting and baking away so I wanted to share a little highlight of what has been going on. Hopefully I will do some more in depth posts about these projects later.
On the Baking front!
I have been baking quite a bit lately. Most of my baked goods are scarfed up before pictures but I do have some goodies to show you.
Anti-Aging Potion Cookies for my sisters birthday party!
Cinnamon Rolls
I have been craving Cinnamon Rolls so in order to work on that I have made them totally from scratch and with pizza dough from a can! Yummy!
In the Crafting World!
In September I made a puppy set for a little one. Blanket, pillow cases, stuffy (toy stuffed animal) and cross stitch.
I learned how to do pin weaving.
Attempted an ironed crayon abstract piece.
And lastly have started to teach myself how to crochet!
So I will get instructions and more info about each project! Check back soon!
