Saturday...

It's so quite in my house... I cannot believe it! Caesar, Chase and Blake are at baseball reviews, Courtney is at her friends house, and Dom is at FCC Softball today for team bonding. I think I watch a movie while blogging. Oh, the dog is here... my buddy. He can just snuggle up with me. Maybe there is a dog movie on so he can watch too. He really does watch dogs on TV but gets disappointed when he cannot find those dogs on screen in our house! Found a movie... The Secret Life of an American Wife? Looks wired. Oh well... so no baking today, and maybe no cooking today. Could be a pizza night! So for my next knitting project, I am thinking of designing a hot water bottle cover. Just seems interesting. Why, I don't know. I drove all over the place looking for a hot water bottle. I did buy one at Rite-Aid for $14.50... too expensive. When I searched Walmart online, it said they do not stock in stores. Well... last night I went to Walmart for something else and thought I should take a look for one anyways. Ha! I found one! Only $4 something! Taking the one back to Rite-Aid today! I know a lot of people put down Walmart but I have saved money and have found some items there that no one has in stock. Anyways, I guess today is a lazy day. No games, no practices, nobody needs me to take them somewhere. Kind of boring but my 3 kids at home will be starting up with school baseball and softball soon so I guess I'd better enjoy the lazy time. I will be a crazy lady soon racing all over the place! Well everyone, have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Friday!

Hello.  I left this blog and was updating my Wordpress blog and then last night, I decided to go back to Blogger. So many tools that are easy to use! Well, here I am! And, Happy Friday!

So I decided to try making homemade pretzels last night. They don't look very good but they are delicious! The recipe is from the Food Network Magazine. I love that magazine, love to cook, and bake! I usually make a couple of recipes from every issue. Love it! It gave me a little break from Knitting.


I have been searching stores for a Hot Water Bottle. I was planning on knitting a cover sleeve for it but cannot seem to find one anywhere! Why not? Drove me crazy last night. When I need something... I hope to just run to the store and pick buy it. Guess not! Checking one more store today after mailing some customer items. Wish me good luck! I did finish some Knitted Cable Gloves the other day. I love them!

Happy Friday! I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! I am planning on working more on my blog, knitting, baking something and cooking a really good meal. Does anyone have any ideas for a good Saturday night dinner meal to make? I am open for suggestions!  


Happy Friday!
