A very quick crochet project! He is adored and loved!

Awful photo, thanks to the sky going dark at 3pm for a massive storm!

So glad these are done. I was a little over the glaring crazy neon by the end.

I have one more skein (very similar, if not the same) of this yarn up for grabs. If you want it. comment here and I will pick a winner

Sweet merciful crap.

Eyemeltingly bright.

But fun. Tadpoles pattern, again, quick and easy, and on one needle again.

So usually, I dont blog about this stuff, but I am sitting here watching the last Masterclass of the year, and feel compelled.

I have loved this season up until a few weeks ago. The New York challenges were a little meh, and the whole format is getting a little old, but people like Kumar, Billy, and Dani kept things interesting. I was pretty devastated to see Billy go, in particular, as I was 100% sure he would be this year’s Masterchef!

(By the way, you can find Billy’s fabulous blog here)

So then last week saw Dani leave (boo) and the last three left: Kate, Michael, and Jeggings. Sorry, I mean Alana.

Now, why these three shit me.

Kate: A big god-freak. No problems with me, there. But then when cooking for the Dalai Lama (Hello??? The freaking DALAI LAMA!!!!) she refused to call him His Holiness. Yeah, whatever. Get your hand off it. I also dont think she’s a particularly fabulous cook. And for this reason alone, she will probably win.

Alana: She’s been booted now, but WHAT GIVES, CHANNEL 10??? She wore the same horrid pair of JEGGINGS on like 20 consecutive episodes!! She even wore them to New York!! Please, someone, buy this girl some decent pants.

Michael: Has the personality of a dog poo that’s been rained on, and then pissed on by another dog. And someone who lists his occupation as a ‘film projectionist’ is just begging for jokes about watching porn. I get the feeling he has made it thru to the finale by sheer luck, or possibly giving the judges sexual favours. And for this reason, he will probably win, too. Whatever.

Year one: I wanted Poh to win. Julie won instead.

Year two: I wanted Alvin (our favorite Gaysian) or Marion to win, and instead Adam won. Adam is still a good cook, but certainly not their level. We can all just be grateful that Nasty Hat didn’t win!

So yes, I will be watching, but I am certainly not emotionally invested in the result this year.

I went stash-diving in the search of the perfect french poppy red. I never realised I had *that* many different shades of red! Rather than decide on one, I think I will use a little of each
