Meet my new roommate-- I call him Kahuna
Yes, my sweetie has taken up surfing, and I am all for it. Yesterday we got up with the snails
and drove to Stinson Beach. Where Moondoggie (Gidget reference- oh my, how I wanted to be Gidget when I was 15!) caught some waves
Some craftiness did occur in among all of the hanging ten around here, but sadly all I have to show are two imperfect attempts.
Attempt #1, a shirt made out of the thrifted sheet I got a few weekends ago:
It is too big and poofy and maternity-ish to suit me, but I think I shall cut down the pattern a size and try again.
Attempt #2, almondine cookies from Paris Sweets:
They looked lovely, smelled good while baking, and had exactly the right texture, but tasted like nothing- I'm all for simple ingredients, but these needed salt and butter, which were not in the recipe. I am still determined to try the lemon cake recipe in this book at some point though-- they can't all be bad!
Hopefully my mediocre crafting karma will be cured now that a new week is upon us!
