Baking day

 With temperatures in the single digits we have been spending LOTS of time indoors.

 The most recent Christmas acquisition of a cookie playset has kept this girl of mine happy for hours.

 Here you can see these awesome felted slippers I made this fall. They are definitely getting put through their paces and holding up well.  I used puffy paint on the soles for traction.

And I've been doing some nerdy knitting for myself. What's better than Tardis Socks??

Post Flu Holiday Photos

Well, we have all been struggling the last week with the flu and other assorted upper respiratory crud. No fun. So here's a few shots from Christmas Eve, complete with Butters, the newest "cousin!" (not ours, but Katie and Mike's pup!)

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday season!

Portland

We shall be moving soon, somewhere my peppers and beard will be appreciated.

EDIT: We are NOT moving!! B just fantasizes about curing meats and riding uncomfortable bicycles.
