What are we DOING?!?! Redwall cheese and a crochet sock.

what are we DOING?

Today I was running around like a maniac, trying to fill out paperwork, going to therapy, buying milk, going to the post office, test driving a car. I forgot until 1/2 hour before bedtime that it was my day to post! Fortunately I don’t have much to write today, so I should be able to go to bed as scheduled.

I haven’t been making anything recently because I’m more interested in finding a new car. I only have 2 things going on:

My sister has asked me to create a Redwall feast for her birthday party on Sunday. In preparation of that, today I made some Redwall cheese. I don’t know which book it’s from because I didn’t take notes quite that helpful, but it’s in there somewhere. It’s white cheese with sage. Almost all Redwall cheese has something mixed into it, which is why I had to make my own! I even used sage from my garden. The recipe is here. I didn’t get a photo of the finished cheese because I was cold and lazy.

The other thing is that my friend, Derpenna, taught me how to crochet a while ago. She taught me the single crochet stitch. My first project, like all first crochet projects, was a deformed rectangle of cloth. I decided on a stitch that I like the look of, which is apparently called a slip stitch, and went on to a very ambitious 2nd project: crocheting socks. I’m doing them in the same way I’ve done my naalbinding socks, but with crochet instead, which I’ve found I prefer because it’s a bit faster, and I can actually undo mistakes.  Here they are so far:

y u so fat

They’re not going to match, and I’m okay with that.

So what are you guys up to?
