:: I finally picked up my crochet hook again and started working on John's blanket a bit
:: I finally sat at my sewing machine since I posted about this skirt and not only finished the skirt (pics to come but made a cute little jumper and did some boring mending/altering that has been lingering in the UFO pile)
:: I soaked 2 big bags of black beans and chick peas and froze them
:: I think I will need to invest in Beano given the amount of beans I have in my freezer
:: Or just gas masks
:: I was inspired by this bean cookbook to give the soaking a shot (no pun intended ;-P )
:: I'm sharing my chair right now with my cat and a stink bug that is destine to meet it's maker at any moment

:: When I pull my hair back in a bun I look like a skunk - I have a grey streak right down the middle - just call me Flower

Oh my....Lots going on. I am however, amazed that the stink bug lasted as long as he did. I vote yes for a recuperating vacation after the real vacation.
Flower ~snickers~
I love randomness!!! You have such a good life!
Wow, you must be a speed reader, and a multi tasker!
Sometimes I don't even get one book a month read.
That stipe sounds most becomeing!
The stink bug commentary was totally cracking me up. Glad you're hooking, reading and cooking, even if the beans are causing minor explosions all over the house. It's all good...
Ok...this post cracked me up...sounds like you have quite the stinky household between the bug and all the beans! :) And 20 books & the Bible!?!?!! Way to go! You MUST be a speed reader.
I love that you're reading your Bible; I seem to not be reading enough of it ever since that's all I read for Lent. Feast or famine, Chez Bellezza, where a little consistancy would be nice.
Welcome home! I surely know what you mean when you say you need a vacation from vacation. I think the worst is the laundry, at least for me.
I should give you the recipe I have for white cannellini beans, which you cook with basil, a fennel bulb finely chopped, and onion. I always serve them over pasta, being the Italian I am, but they're delicious! And all your bean soaking/freezing reminded me of it. Let me know if you want it. xoxo
