I'm back! and I've brought baby penguins with me! ;)

Wow, I haven't written on this blog in a while! Sorry about that everyone! We've been finishing up school, so there hasn't been much time to keep the blog going steady... I've still been finding time to crochet stuff in the evening during family movie time though! =D I've made an adjustment on the penguins ;) The penguins have babies! And not only are the babies super adorable, they double as finger puppets! ;) I had to sneak the original baby penguin away from my little sister (who stole it within minutes of finishing it)

Here they are! Now to figure out how much I'm going to be selling these for ;) They're actually quite fun to make, and I love making them in all the different colors! And my siblings are good testers, and according to them, I should make a whole legion of penguins! And then give them to my siblings.... hmmmmm haha =D

Saphira has been been up to a whole lot too! Unfortunately I haven't gotten pictures of them yet... But she made a whole bunch of button necklaces, around 6 or 7, a pair of cat slippers (adorable!), a little hand bag, and a few more ponchos! I'm hoping to get the pictures taken later today, and then I'll try to post them, either tonight, or sometime tomorrow...  =)

We've been getting the garden ready too! I don't know about all of you, but I can't wait for the fresh veggies! =) And this year I'll be planting some flowers too! We have a fence on the side of our yard, and it's just crying out to have some flowers underneath it! ;) I'm thinking Tuberous Begonias, because I love how rose-ish they are! =) (Roses are my favorite flowers)

Hello all!

I am so sorry that I have not been keeping up with the blog! Life has been so hectic!

I don't know about all of you out there, but Maine has been having a few HOT days! Summer is almost here! *Happy dance*

And it's getting almost time to plant some plants! Still a little chilly yet, but soon! I can't wait to have fresh juicy tomatoes straight off the vine! Or fresh off the vine string beans! I'm telling you, fresh string beans kick butt when it comes to those alien things they call "string beans" that come in cans. You haven't lived until you've grown your own and taken a bite of that crisp yummy string bean, right from the vine to your mouth! Yummmm.... ;)

Mom and I have been looking into selling some of our crafts, so we've been looking around in the area, and scouting out Etsy... =) So wish us luck! =D

And I have a confession to make: I ADORE Pinterest! I found this really cool idea on how to clean the headlights on your vehicle, and so I tried it on the family van, and OMGOSH! I was so shocked that it worked! I wish I had taken before and after pictures! All you do it put some toothpaste (any kind, I used Crest) and rub it on, let it sit about 5-10 minutes and rinse it off! If it still needs more to come off, just repeat, and walla! Clean, CLEAR headlights! =D

Mom has been making more ponchos (Below is a picture to refresh your mind) And she's thinking she wants to sell them, so we'll see about it!! =)

Beautiful isn't it? =D



Well, I'm off to see about making Dandelion soup! =D (Yes, there is such a thing!) ;)
