In the interest of decorating my kitchen in strawberries (but not having the $$ to go out and buy everything I want), I turned to crochet (of course! 😁) to make some things. I googled "Crochet Strawberry Tea Cozy" on You Tube. And I used this pattern to make this adorable tea cozy! I think I should have made the base bigger, you can barely see it (I had to pull it over a little so you could see the little "leaves")... Anyway I still think it is super cute.
Another picture where it doesn't look so washed out. I was trying to think where I could put it to "display" it... Because our counter space is limited. If I put it on top of the fridge you couldn't see the whole thing. I've been thinking about getting one of these for my plants. Maybe that could work. I already know my husband would just complain about it though... Maybe I could get something to put on top of the dishwasher...
Anyway. I made some cookies for my new cookie jar. These are long gone and I need to make some more. But I have bananas waiting to be made into muffins today. These were cranberry white chocolate chip cookies (but I made them with regular chocolate chips). The recipe I have is typed out, no website or information where the recipe came from. You could google your own.
I have been potting and re-potting plants. I repotted the purple wandering jew plant I got at a garage sale a couple weekends ago. I will save you 20 pictures of plants. I want new pots for my plants. I just used what I have in the garage. I also repotted a spider plant. I was going to plant a cutting I have been rooting forever, but I got wore out after two plants. And I can't do it now because I just mopped the kitchen yesterday.
I seriously need help cleaning; and I want a house cleaning lady. Funny. I used to be the house cleaning lady. I cannot keep up since I got cancer and my surgery... 😒
I'm crocheting another strawberry tea cozy, too. I saw one on Instagram, and I went on Pinterest to try and find a pattern... This was all I could find. I am totally winging it. I used the chart to get started but then I 1. Can't read the directions, 2. I hate charts and I was just getting totally confused. 3. Half of it is in Chinese or some other language. I actually started this one before the one I posted up above. Because I am trying to figure it out as I go and find flower and strawberry patterns to use..
Oh. The "Puppies" part of this post... (She is two years old though not a puppy... 😜) Update on the vet visit.... "Allegedly", Elsie has Lyme. 😕 (Why is there no eye rolling emoji on here, I need it!!) Which is ridiculous. I mean we do have ticks here. But, she has been on Nexguard all the summer months. The only month we missed was last month, and I have been using this, AND Fur Life dog collars since May. And they both have been getting a bath (with flea and tick shampoo). Elsie only got one in May. Jaxson got one in May (by me), and I gave him one last week. And, my husbands boss said "They tell everyone that here". All of which makes me think they are lying, just to get more money. That's why I say allegedly she has Lyme. I know they don't actually care. Because they still have not called me back to let me know when I can give her her Nexguard and Heartguard meds.... They said "Wait until we get the results". I think it's time for a new vet. I told our son, since it's "his dog". Even though I take her...
Well that's about all for now.
