I always thought knitting sounded fun

O.K. not always always, but since about the late '90s

and I admired those who could do it

but I didn't know how and I didn't have anyone to teach me

until now

My neighbor started me out on a little purple hat

It might be for Piney if it turns out to fit her

We'll see.

Also I discovered a lot of ways to serve others through knitting.

www.binkypatrol.org : They send your homemade blankets to children and teens in need of comfort across the country.

www.tlcforangels.com : They donate your homemade blankets to babies in need.

www.warmingfamilies.org: They deliver your homemade blankets and other warm items to the homeless.

So now I have the baking and the knitting thing going

I am like a real homemaker now

How could you get more homemakerish than that?

Next thing I need to do is make some really good homemade organic vegetable soup.

Any good recipes anyone?

Oh and compost.

Those are the next things on my learning list.

Oh and homemade hummus. That is another thing I was thinking about.

Too fun!
