Toe Candy
Wow, do we have snow. Like, up-to-my-knees type snow, and it was perfect for sledding on Christmas. (Rachel, that was a blast! ;-) So naturally, I get kinda cold. Enter 4 pairs of awesome socks. On Christmas morning, I suddenly didn’t feel so cold, because Mom gave me some sweet woolly knee-hi’s + the Underhill family gave me a pair of (insert drum roll) SMARTWOOLS!!! Ok, I know people hate schmoozy confessions, but honestly, every time I go to the Sportsman SkiHaus, I stand stupified in front of all those lovely socks. And slowly, I touch them. Enough said. Anyhow, these socks are SO cute, (green, hooray!) SO warm, and SO comfortable, I really wonder whether I will ever see my feet again. My feet are happy feet.
my cheap lunch
We keep an assortment of chickens, so we get these cool green eggs. Not only is green my favorite color, but green eggs are delightfully Seussian. Here is my cheap omelet:
Green egg!!
It’s…so…beautiful…
…add a slice of Muenster cheese, and perfecto!
The High Life
It’s so chilly right now. (It’s been getting to about 20 below at night) I love winter time, but I must say that considering the brutal temps, I don’t have the most advantageous spot in the house. My bedroom (the awesome view) is in our third story, and the wood heat can’t quite make it all the way from the basement to my personal icebox. Flannel sheets, granny gown, down comforter, heavy quilt, and afghan don’t cut it anymore. So mom gave me a really soft pink blankie to wrap up in. It looks stupid, but it’s warm.
Leggies!
Megan & I have so much fun sewing our own leggings! Nice leggies aren’t very cheap, but with some scrap Lycra and about 1 1/2 hours of extra time, you can have really nice custom ones! These are my new ones, made of the leftovers from a swimsuit.
Mom says they look like something Mick Jagger would wear, but 80’s stigma aside, they are warm & fun to run around in.
Some of you probably know that for a while I have been romancing the idea of a new bike. I believe that I am coming closer to a decision. If any of you have input on the color choice, fill in the poll. Ok, here are my options:
Finally!
I’ve finally convinced the filter to be my friend, so here are the belated pictures from Spokane.
