As you can tell from my absence from here my kitchen has been finished for a while now. There will be finished product pictures soon, but in the mean time...
The baking bug has bit me hard. I don't know that I've ever made so many things since I first got married and had my own kitchen.
My King Arthur Flour Baking Book has given me quite a few keeper recipes. You'll notice my lovely coffee cake displayed above.
It was so good I had to make it twice and neither one make it to the freezer for later. Turns out later can be just five minutes too.
We even have made a tea corner. I took a crappy picture of it but I've got one!!
Even though I've been happily tied up with my baking and my church duties, I've been knitting along when I can find the time. I knit through a church meeting last month. Hopefully I've proven that knitting and paying attention go hand in hand.
I thought about being subtle with my knitting, but decided knitting volunteer is way better than no volunteer. I've been places, knitting along when someone finally notice I was knitting after I'd been doing it for half an hour.
Anyways those socks are Fiber Stash Tweedy Toes in Pick Your Own colorway. My picture does not show them off, but there are tiny little tweedy bits. I decided against her yarn a couple of years ago and regretted it. Guess that is part of the reason I am so happy with the skein I bought last year.
Right now my needles are busy with a second sock for Mom and a second sock for D. Wait till you see D's, they're interesting.
Was that the oven timer? Just kidding I already made a batch of muffins and a couple of loaves of pumpkin bread today. Even my freezer is happy with my baking.
