Scones and Crochet Fails

Well, I made scones yesterday. But not the ones I had posted the recipe for. These are Raisin Scones. I've posted about these before. This recipe is exactly the same as the one I used. The only difference is that the recipe I used, you have the oven at 425* for 12-15 minutes, instead of 400* for 15 minutes. 
I made some tea to go with it. I bought the Tetley tea a while ago at Meijers. And then last weekend we went to World Market, and I found the Yorkshire Tea. I wanted to try "British Tea". To see if it's any different than tea in the US.  😐 I mean... It's good. But. Meijer brand is all right, too.  I still have my apple tea cozy.  
Speaking of tea cozies, I had been in the mood to crochet one for a while. And I did. But....  I don't even know where my brain is sometimes. First off, you would think I would be able to tell as I was crocheting it, that it wouldn't fit any tea pot anyone has, unless it was a kids play set tea pot! I was supposed to use bulky weight yarn. I only did one strand of worsted weight..
And, it also should have two holes one on each side? 😟I don't even know. I must have been in La La Land...  I guess I will have to just throw this away. It looks more like a preemie cap than a tea pot cozy.

Then there's this. It's supposed to be a keychain purse. Look how small it is! Could I not tell when I was crocheting it, that I was going blind trying to see what I was doing? 😕 I put a bottle of nail polish and an old wine cork next to it so you can see how small it is. I don't know...  I think I need to take a break from crocheting for a while. 😝 At least the sky is blue today. Maybe I can go for a walk.
