Funky Town

Sometimes things just don't go as planned...you either roll with the punches or get pissy. Guess which road I took this weekend?

After my big effort with Friday Night Sew In I had high hopes of a  productive crafty type weekend but alas it was not to be.

I wrote an entire post about my various crafting mishaps and realised when I read it back I sounded kinda pathetic and whiny. Nobody really wants to go to a pity party right?

So lets basically say my weekend was not very successful or productive and call it a draw shall we? And that among other things, my car deciding to develop what I suspect is a major problem ,  set me off on a path to funky town and I have yet to return to my happy place.

I made these Christmas countdown blocks from the white igloo blocks and decided I was not destined to be  a famous Christmas Countdown Block maker.  You can see really pretty ones here.


In happier news, the pantry door is finished and in place. All that sanding was worth the effort. (This is specifically for you Patty -I know you've been dying to see it )



I inventoried my freezers today (when it became apparent I had contracted crafty crap-itis )and I have so much chicken I'm amazed I'm not clucking. So if you have any fabulous recipes that use whole chook or even pieces, or drumsticks please let me know. On the up side it's highly unlikely we'll be needing to go meatless any time soon because my freezers currently rival the local butcher shop. I did a decent cleanout and worked out what will go in this week's dog food. (it's Ok to feed my dogs meat with an expiry date of 1962 right?) And look what else I found...


Please tell me I am not the only person in the known universe who still has Hot Cross Buns from 8 months ago stashed in her freezer?
