an apology. and bad chili.

So I haven't posted here in over a month, but that doesn't mean I haven't been making things! I've just been lazy about posting. Turns out that every day is quite daily.

Yesterday I made chili, which wasn't exactly well received by the family. I caught Eliot scraping his out of his bowl and into the kitchen garbage can. I said, "Eliot, what exactly are you doing?" And he looked up at me and replied, "Trash. trash." Right. I get it. I can't cook. Next time Momma makes dinner it will taste suspiciously like Papa John's.

a few more rows of my scarf.

I took a knitting class last week and am attempting to make a scarf. It was going well until Elecia totally one-upped me (actually, more like three-upped me) by whipping out the most gorgeous little knitted baby hat in a single evening. The last picture here is how I feel about that.
