I think I mentioned before that we are now living at my Mom and Dad's house. My mom is a very "tidy" person so there really isn't much that needs done. Lucky me! I do try to help out with the cooking and dishes and such but sometimes Mom beats me to it!

I just finished a cozy mystery so I thought next I'd go for a historical romance. I've just started it so I'm still learning the character and getting a "feel" for the book. I've enjoyed Karen Witemeyer's writing in the past and am looking forward to digging in to this book.

What I am creating at the moment::::
After giving much thought to making Kaylee a temperature blanket for the year she was born, I decided it would end up being huge!
Instead, we decided that I would make her a Giant Granny Square Afghan using the colors and order that she picked out. I took this picture yesterday, so I'm a bit farther along after working on it last night.

I'm also finished with a Cosy Stripe Afghan by Attic24 in Moorland inspired colors except for tying in the ends. More on that at a later date :)

ReplyDeleteMy current book is a retelling of Beauty and the Beast. Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorite fairy tales. Come see my reading week here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful afghan! My daughter has two blankets made by her aunt and great-grandmother and she adores both of them.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week and enjoy your book!
I so want to see a Dog's purpose, but am so afraid it will be sad too. Looks like a FUN read if you judge he book by its cover - can't wait to see what you think! Have a great week and I hope the chiropractor helps.
ReplyDeleteI love the Aurora Teagarden movies, so much fun :) Your menu sounds yummy, and your crochet is so pretty :)
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great week.
Full Steam Ahead looks like my kind of book. I hope you'll review it for us when you're done.
ReplyDeleteYour snow shot is pretty! I am looking forward to that adaptation of "Beauty and the Beast" as well. I told Rebecca I want to take her to see it.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors in your afghan. So pretty. I can't wait to see Beauty and the Beast too! I love Emma Watson and that's been a favorite story and Disney movie in the past.
ReplyDeleteBlessings on your week. xoxo
I love to crochet, but I had to look up what a temperature blanket was. What a great idea!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your reading this week and thanks for visiting my blog.
Your Photo is SO beautiful! Frame worthy for sure. Great Job!
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a good week!
ReplyDeleteThat afghan looks warm and cuddly as I imagine the person you're making it for must be.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a wonderful week of happy homemaking! Thank you for sharing with us on the Art of Home-Making Mondays at Strangers & Pilgrims on Earth! :)
