…and a Partridge in a Pear Tree

If I somehow manage to survive this weekend and come out the other side alive, it will be no small miracle.

Friday night:

  • Work Christmas party
  • Somehow make it to the store to buy all necessary ingredients to bake an assortment of cookies
    • Chocolate Chip cookies
    • Oatmeal Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip cookies
    • Gingerbread cookies
  • Prep gingerbread cookies to chill overnight

Saturday:

  • 8:00 am – doctor appointment (this will be covered in another blog post coming soon)
  • Bake somewhere between 9 – 12 dozen cookies
  • Decorate a Gingerbread house
  • Go shopping for BAD Boy’s class Christmas party goody bags
  • Knit 1 and a 1/2 cupcakes
  • Buy Christmas present for (Step)FIL
  • Put up Christmas Tree
  • And if there is time, decorate the front steps

Sunday:

  • Finish up any leftover baking from the previous night
  • First of 3 family Christmas parties at noon
  • Finish knitting 1 and a 1/2 cupcakes

Clearly sleep is not an option.

FO Extravaganza!

I finished a few things this week. Nothing like knocking out some of your unfinished knits to make you feel like a champ.

First up: CUPCAKE! I’m getting to where I can pretty much just knock these things out. Which is nice since I’ve still got quite a few more to go.

And my Annemoi Fingerless Mitts are finally done. Yay! I love them.

The color is more accurate in the second picture. Project specs are here. I finished these just in time for it to turn unseasonably warm. Maybe it’ll cool down enough for me to get to wear them sometime this week.

Then again, our weather is so unpredictable. And I’ve probably just guaranteed that it’ll be in the 70s for next 2 weeks by finishing these lovely mitts.

No Calorie Cupcakes!

This year, I ended up volunteering to help out with BAD Boy’s class as a co-room parent. Since I work and can’t always get to the classroom, I wanted to be able to do something for the kids and figured knitted cupcakes for their birthdays would be a quick and easy way to do it. Of course, first I made sure it was BAD Boy Approved??before even starting on this project.

I found this pattern, went remnant stash diving and came up with these two no calorie, guilt free cupcakes.

CUPCAKES!CUPCAKES!

Well, today was the first birthday party of the year and there were 2 birthdays – 1 boy, 1 girl.?BAD Boy informed me that the cupcakes were 1) a big hit, 2) EVERYONE wants one, 3) they want to know what I’m going to make their teacher and 4) were wondering why I didn’t come to the birthday party.

EEK!

I think I might have started something.
