About
I used to consider myself a complete failure in the domestic realm. I didn’t do any crafts and my idea of a “home cooked meal” was boiled frozen ravioli smothered with a jar of spaghetti sauce. (Not that there is anything wrong with that.) During Thanksgiving of 2004, I watched my mother knit and was inspired to pick up two pointy wooden sticks and a ball of furry red yarn. That was the beginning of my crafting career. I have knit scarves, hats, bags, and sweaters, but my current obsession is socks. Specifically, socks knit with luscious hand-dyed yarns.
Last year, I developed an interest in cooking and baking. I think it was because I got tired of eating the same five dinners over and over again. I have always loved sweets, so delving into baking wasn’t that much of a stretch. I purchased cookbooks and my husband and I began experimenting with recipes. Hubby likes to call himself my ”helper boy” – I find the recipes and provide directions, while he chops everything and helps me throw it all together. While we are very, very far from being gourmet cooks, we definitely enjoy the process of creating a meal together and learning as we go along.
This is the space where I document my domestic adventures. I hope you enjoy the journey with me.
