FO: Tiny Tille Tea Leaves

It’s been a long, long time between FO’s.

Yes, she is a nudist.

A great pattern, and a lovely yarn. Really, I need to just come out and say it – Bendigo Mills is my #1 fave place for yarn.

I mucked up the button band, and had to put it down for a week before picking it up again during baby’s naptime and redoing it. Picking up stitches is very hard work on my arms at the moment.

I loved this so much, I am considering making the adult size for myself!

Mother’s Day

The big 3 kids weren’t home, so it was a bit of a quiet Mother’s Day. No cold tea and burnt toast in bed for me :( It’s amazing to think that exactly a year ago, I had horrible morning sickness!

We dont do the mother’s day thing much, but this year I did get something I really really wanted.. a cook/frypan/banquet/slow cooker thingamybob. I really wanted a slow cooker, but with a big family and a CRAP stove, this is ideal!

A pan filled with choc and goodies!

mmmmmmmm cooking.

My first dish, Butter chicken. I treated myself to this book in anticipation. This recipe is a KNOCKOUT. Clean plates all rounds, and seconds and thirds devoured. Awful pic, great curry.

The pan is wonderful – max high sear is VERY hot, and the element is lovely an even. Apparently you can cook nearly anything in it, so I am looking forward to using it instead of the crap stove/oven for most meals!
