I've been slowly working on stuff to sell on etsy. It's been slow because I've been feeling pretty awful lately. At any rate, a few things have been knitted and/or sewn. Now I need to get decent pictures of them. I'll probably have to borrow Mom's camera for that. Meanwhile there are some not so good pictures on my flickr thingy of 3 of my finished products.
Oh, and a picture of the cupcakes I made today. Only made a dozen since I only have 2, 6 cup pans. I was feeling pretty yucky (even baking wasn't enjoyable) and since I couldn't find the right size cake pan, I poured the rest of the batter into a foil-lined loaf pan instead of waiting to do another batch of a dozen cupcakes. Hooray for foil! No scrubbing of bakeware necessary! Hooray for boxed cake mix and pre-fab frosting! Ah, the lazy baker's best friends. Also, I love those little star sprinkles. (:
Mom hasn't said for certain yet whether she is or isn't, but she might be heading back to Atlanta to take care of Aunt Kitsy again for awhile. Since Dad and Adrian are going to Puerto Rico for Christmas and New Year's, if Mom goes to Atlanta it'll be just me and the pets here for the holidays. So that'll be... different. Mom has been saying she wants to ignore Christmas this year, so maybe she actually will. If she leaves, I'll decorate the house myself. :p I'm not a Christmas Curmudgeon yet! I might make a button wreath, even though Mom's comment about it was "what a waste of vintage buttons."
I really like theblackapple's Christmas tree... particularly her unusual topper. :) The gifts look very nice too. I love seeing other people's decorations.
There were other things I've been thinking of writing, but now I'm all tired and crampy and gross and stuff. Tomorrow maybe.
