My new best friend


I used to have this imaginary best friend named Rachael. Rachael and I would hang out in the kitchen all the time, where she taught me all kinds of recipes for quick easy dinners. She also taught me that if I added enough garlic, onions and cheese to any recipe, people would say "yum-o" when the ate my food.

When I went back to work, I lost all interest in cooking. I haven't seen a whole lot of Rach, since I started making salads and hamburgers for 8 hours a day.

My new imaginary best friend is named Brett Bara. Brett hosts the PBS show "Knit and Crochet Today" And thanks to Brett I know all kinds of new stitches. Just the other day she taught me how to crochet babbles! I don't know if you can see this way cute babble pattern. But I'm super excited that I can do it! (It's okay if your laughing at me, I'm laughing too)
The project I'm trying to get the nerve to start is a knit and felted flower pot. It involves 2 knitting techniques I've never tried: short rowing and felting. Someday soon, I'll get the guts to try something really challenging. And believe me, when I succeed you'll hear about it!!!
