Sweater and a Cake

So I finally started work on my Weasley sweater this week (I'm making Fred's, just so you know...), almost done with the back. Only another 5" or so until I get to cast off, considering I started this on Saturday morning, I'm doing amazing. Sam has graciously agreed to make my scarf for me (*cough*christmaspresent*cough*), and Mary still hasn't given me yarn for her vest.

But wait! I have good news! I baked a cake, a real cake from scratch. And if I do say so it looks delicious. It's a Buttermilk Spice cake with Vanilla Creme frosting, also from scratch. Pre-cuttage picture below.


Update: Back of sweater is done, front almost at colorwork stage.

A Spot of Tea

Yeah, I get bored easily. So after bashing myself for a while about not getting my cupcakes done, I gave up and started working on another project. Knitted sandwiches; same line of thought, not as redundant. Which led to my search for the perfect way to display such wonders, hence why the picture has my mother's best china in it. (Just don't tell her I used it.......)


And since I was taking pictures in the kitchen....I decided to make lunch......



Yummy! Grilled cheese!


Ooops, I think I burned it....
(Thank you for putting up with me and my strangeness)
