Last night, at about eight o’clock, I decided that I just couldn’t look at the pages of a book anymore. And so I dug out an unfinished spinning project: 3 oz. of BFL blend in the Fireside Chat colorway from the AVFKW Woolly Wonders Fiber Club. I’d already spun one bobbin, so I turned on an episode of Planet Money (great npr podcast, which you can find here), and spun the second half of the fiber, albeit a bit thicker in places than the first.
I made a half-head of romaine-sized portion of my dad’s caesar salad recipe (so good), and returned to the reading. (Sneak peak of my progress on the ripe bananas lap blanket test knit.)
And then I plied and washed the Fireside Chat BFL, and it poofed up. (Yay!) While in the kitchen, I snapped a photo of this very lonely cranberry muffin:
A dozen cranberry muffins – (one rooster reading + one boy writing a dissertation proposal) = one muffin remaining.
Must it be Monday?
That seems like a very productive evening to me. Though I do hope that cranberry muffin found some company …
I think that poor lonely muffin wants you to eat it.
Yes, I hope that poor muffin got to join its siblings eventually… ;)
The salad looks yummy, and the blanket too (but in a different way, you know what I mean!)
Your spinning looks lovely, too!
Sigh, it must be! What a productive Saturday, though!! I sat like broccoli all weekend. Couldn’t even get into knitting…. :-)
Looks like you were pretty productive! What a great way to take a break from academic work. Everything looks so yummy, too!
So you are just teasing us with your dad’s caesar salad recipe??
