New Picture Blog!

Hi all! I have created another blog called Frozen Time. Be sure to check it out! But no worries I will still be blogging here, just thought that it would be interesting to have an entire blog on pictures!

Some Pictures For You All

Have you ever been to Falling Water, the house designed by Frank Lloyd Wright? I t really is beautiful. I took the long trip there a little while ago(not just for that), and people do go there from everywhere. There were people there from Great Britain! Here are some pictures I took:


Here are some pics of that bunny cake I had made for Easter. The grass is coconut dyed green. The ears are pink parer and the facial structures are jelly beans!! I got the idea on how to carve and ice the cake here.



And here are some cute pics I took of Lilly with her crinkly duck this morning. She has on her Hawaiian bandanna-an added bonus!

Sick

I've been really sick lately so I have been just laying around doing nothing. When I went to the doctor they said I had a bad sinus infection from a fever/cough/cold thing I had had earlier this week. I hope everyone had a nice Easter/Passover. I celebrate Easter but had a 103.0 fever on Easter so mine wasn't that great. I was with my family though and they had a lot of fun laughing at me as I was delirious. It was kind of upsetting I had made so many things Easter-themed. I made a bunny cake with a carrot-cake recipe from a friend. I knit up some carrots as decoration for my house. I found that pattern from the 100 Flowers To Knit & Crochet by Lesley Stanfield. Here are some pictures:
Well as I said I have mostly been laying around on the computer so I came up with some pretty poetry/quotes that I inlaid into pictures.



Lilly News: She has destroyed a leash by chewing through it, a screen door by pawing at it, and two Kongs(even the Extreme one) by being too excited by the treats inside. Looks like even though she isn't a puppy I will have to treat her like one!

Horrible-Now Happy

So you all probably think that I am the absolute WORST blogger in the world. The thing is around after the last time I blogged my dog Scout passed away. I was so distraught. My big little girl was gone, and I was so upset. I didn't really want/have time to blog at all. That was in July, and I'm better now. In fact, I kind of had another dog fall into my lap.It's one of those i knew a friend who knew a friend stories. This lady found this dog wandering the streets with no collar, couldn't pass her up, but had 8 dogs, so she couldn't keep her. I was so lonely coming home to a place without a wagging tail..soo...I rescued her!!! She's precious-so sweet. She loves to be with be and follows me everywhere!!! Here are some pictures of my baby:Lilly.
She is a terrier mix and weighs about 11 pounds. I love her so much. She has really helped me get over the loss. I now have some more time on my hands so I will be blogging more often! Frome now on this blog won't just be about knitting anymore though! It will be about books, Lilly, and the other random topics that pop into my head!!

Blogger

I have been so insanely busy lately!! Sorry so much I hope to catch up on my bad blogging! Here's the summary of current projects: mittens/scarf/headband combo for a friend, a teddy bear and Christmas outfit and a slouchy hat for sister!! I am super busy knitting all of this that I have hardly been on my computer!! Ipromise to be on more!

Baby Clothes

I just found out that someone I know is having a baby! I am so excited to make them little clothes! I decided to start off with a sweater, a blankie, a hat ans socks(no, I am never an overachiever!). Due to my project ADD, probably only the blankie and socks but who knows! Maybe I will be able to get through tiny clothes easier(probably)! Yah! I am going to the store right now to get baby yarn!

Updates

I am really sorry about not being on at all lately... I have been through some tough times and then went on a vacation. I just got back this morning. I managed to start knitting the dress and I think that it will turn out pretty good. I will later post some pics! I have started plying some of the yarn drifting away from the original plan. More on that later! Got to go!

Ravelry

I am knitter14 on Ravelry. I also just started a new group! It is called Blog Comments Train! No more to say today besides that I am almost done with my first cupcake and started "designing" a dress.

Cupcake Madness Begins!!!!!

I was thinking a couple of days ago about how much a friend appreciated a knit cupcake I gave her for her her birthday in addition to some other things. I thought about how everyone could use a cupcake on their birthday and how it would be impossible to do this because I usually only remember someone's birthday the night before. But wait!!!!! The impossible became possible! Why don't I knit up a bunch of cupcake and keep them handy until they are ready to be given! Brilliant! I 'll refill the stash whenever it's almost down to one or two cupcakes left! The only problem left is where to stash them...every storage spot is filled with yarn. Then I thought I would put them in a tiny bin behind my bed. But wait- the madness doesn't stop at cupcakes! I also thought about making felted fortune cookies with messages like "You are going to have a great birthday!" and "You are going to get well very soon" inside them. I am going to start knitting the cupcakes and fortune cookies this weekend. Let the madness begin!

WIP

Here is a picture of my spindle with the currents silk on it. I really have to get working if I want it all spun!!
