Socks!

These are my Gyokuro socks that I just cast off today!  Yay!  I was hoping to finish them up quickly so I could MAYBE get one more pair of socks done before the 15th but I don't know if thats really a possibility. I did these in the February CookieA sock club yarn, Alisha Goes Around Richness of Martens Fingering weight in the colorway Genevieve, which is poorly captured by the crappy lighting in my house.  Its really a beautiful and very soft yarn.  I like it a lot and highly recommend it!  


Now to either cast on another pair of socks or get some baking in...hmmm.  The baby is stirring I'm not sure I will be able to get to either.  A girl can dream!  :)

Betty Baker

Well my name is not Betty but I have been baking!  

 Nanaimo Bars chocolate, vanilla, coconut, almonds...its dangerously delicious.
Speaking of delicious these are lemon bars and they are so good.

My kitchen is basically the most dangerous place in the world right now.  I can't seem to stop "tasting" these bars.  This is not good for my mission to return to my pre-preggo figure.  I guess thats what new years resolutions are for...lol.  Two weeks and I am back to working out, I can't wait!
