What didn't I get done today...

I had good intentions for the day.  Really, I did.  Let's just say that the ham dinner will wait.  What a Dear Hubby I have to eat quiche and garlic bread...=]  I did fix him a planned strawberries and shortcake.  It was ok, nothing really home prepared or fresh.  I'll have to do that one over again with fresh(not frozen) strawberries and a Bisquick shortcake that he likes. 

I didn't make pies, either...well, other than the quiche. 

Let me tell you what I did get finished and it will make me seem all the more lame.  I put the fringe on a scarf and trimmed it up.  I put it in it's own bag, taped it up and put it in a drawer.  I did do some other knitting and crochet on projects. 

Let me tell you, I'm giving up on coffee.  It's my second day.  Tea is all I'll allow for caffeine intake.  Well, chocolate, too.  Maybe the very rare Pepsi w/my Sis.  As well as giving up that addiction I've given up smoking.  I'm glad for it.  I feel so very much better after just a few days.  A sinus cold had me at my last straw.  Just feeling yucky in general was wearing me down.  I intend to be able to swim this summer and to take walks and maybe even get back into yoga.  I really am determined to clean out the toxins and eat and LIVE better! 

You won't find me giving up my knitting, crocheting, sewing, quilting, and gardening, tho!! 

And here are the promised pics:

One of two ripples I'm having fun crocheting.  I think the other one might be on hold as I'd like to find another color to add in before finishing it.

 Here is the scarf I finished up today...the fringe looks rather poorly done.  It's the one part of the scarf I don't care for.

  1. Have you ever done latch hooking? I'm only asking because it is a great way to thicken up fringes, you might like it more then? I personally think its beautiful! Also so is that ripple blanket, mastered it I'd say! :) xxx
