Froggin'

There's been a whole lot of froggin' going on here this week.  I only have 1 project on the needles now - Kyle sweater!  And I'm going to CO the Chiton Pullover for my vacation knitting.  Today I even ripped out the shawl in kidsilk haze.  Ripping out mohair sucks... even after being frozen for years!

Next Project - Chiton Pullover

I was lucky enough to attend the launch party for the newest issue of Knitscene at Downtown Knits. And I fell in love with this easy sweater. Perfect for vacation knitting, and this gorgeous Malabrigo in red - just my color!

More Sweater Love

I just finished this one today!

Dylan's Favorite Sweater

I can't get the kid to take it off... such love!  He told me it's like wearing a nice warm blanket.

Merry Christmas!!!

What do you want to eat this week?

School vacation and I suppose the children might want to eat something other than coffee and toast. Here's their list. Hysterical. And when I asked what kind of pie and fruit, they answered that it doesn't matter. Love it!

Chocolate Balls

Merry Christmas!!! I love this time of the year. Gifts and parties and friends and family. This week we had 4 parties - the last one is tonight. I always bring these "Oreo truffles". Super yummy, they're impressive but are very easy to make!

Oreo Truffles
1 box Oreos
2 blocks cream cheese (soft)
chocolate chips

1. Grind up Oreos in your food processor.
2. Mix Oreo crumbs with cream chesse.
3. Roll into small balls and refrigerate at least an hour.
4. Melt chocolate chips.
5. Roll balls in melted chocolate.  Set on parchment paper and return them to the refrigerator to harden.

That's it!  This year I got fancy... I've tried different chocolates and sprinkles.  So far my favorite are the mint chips.  YUMMY!!!
