I finished the body but I fear it might be too short. However I do expect to gain some length through the wonder and glory that is blocking. Also since it is a cardigan and I never ever shut them…it should be ok. If not I can cut off the bo edge and add some length. I was going to do the crossover rib all the way around the bottom but lacked the correct the stitch count. So I decided a regular 2×2 rib was the way to go. The sleeves are coming along too. I have delusions of finishing one tonight. We can all enjoy a good laugh now. But it’s nice to dream…
So I’ve been on a baking spree the past few weeks. I forgot to take shots of my nicer looking cupcakes from the previous two weeks but this week I made muffins instead. I try (intermittently) to avoid carbs so I don’t tend to eat my creations too often. Anyway Justin asked me to make blueberry or banana nut muffins for his breakfast. I didn’t have that fruit in the house but I did have some strawberries. So I used the Martha Stewart recipe for Blueberry muffins and added in macerated strawberries and chocolate chips. He said they’re awesome.
After I finished spring cleaning today I needed to chill out so I went outside and shot some flower pics. There are more in flickr. Anyway I want to vent just a tad, so last night after SNB I went to borders and decided to say what the hell and get the reader. Then I got a flash of ‘but what if I hate it” anyway so I asked about the return policy. Anyway the only way they would take it back was if it was broken. Hello not spending 300 on a device I’m not sure I’ll love and not be able to return. It was very disappointing.
Blah about the electronic reader. What about Amazon’s Kindle? Same sort of return policy?
And mmmmm, muffins.
